It was pretty creepy. The Hell House was... it got creepy around the time you pointed out that the kids were enjoying it. Yeee. That made it clear that it was more than a show for the people putting it on. Add that to Blind Joe, our betrayer, being along for the ride -- tough stuff.
The scene where he was trying to convince Angie to help him with Redemption Day was particularly tough to watch, on a couple of levels. The entire group had been thrown back together at high speed, without time to realign and figure out how we were going to feel about Joe (not to mention how Joe was going to feel about us). It wasn't unrealistic, by any means, and I don't object to fast-paced events, but I'm not sure we had IC time to make any decisions of such magnitude.
Which worked out very well in that we decided to take him along with us. It's going to be tense but it was the right move; any decision about helping or leaving him would have been over-sudden. Watch as we foil your plans...
Thanks for the warm fuzzies, too, and I second the praise of Blind Joe Biscuit. Although really, I'm hella impressed by everyone in the game, without exception.
Oh, and on creepy plots:
Last night, in Brent's game, we culminated with a visit to an ice-bound ship full of corpses; as it turned out, they'd run out of food and started eating each other. We found the obligatory single survivor, who was of course utterly mad. It's been a creepy RP /week/.
