Another Trailer for the Horror ARG ‘Night Terrors’
Night Terrors is the supernatural horror alternate reality game (ARG) I wrote about last month that uses your phone to transform your home into a haunted house. Or, it will do that if it’s successfully funded on Indiegogo, where it’s managed to raise just over half of its $70,000 goal. With only eight days left in its campaign, it’s going to take a substantial push from the horror-loving community if we’re going to help get it made.
I clearly think this is a fantastic idea, but my job is to share potentially awesome things with you, not to sell them, so I’ll leave that to this spooky new trailer.
Developer Novum Analytics has an awesome idea on their hands that should appeal to anyone who spent their childhood imagining there were ghosts and various other spooky things that only you could see. I watched a lot of horror movies as a kid, so I did this often. I was also lucky enough to have friends who were as weird as I was, so hunting fake ghosts — fauxsts? — quickly became a group activity for us.
If Night Terrors reaches its funding goal, you’re all invited to my place for a night of paranormal investigations, pizza and scary movies. And yes, footie pajamas are mandatory.
All of us here at Bloody Disgusting are deeply sad to learn that actress Daveigh Chase has passed away at just 35 years old. The news was first reported by TMZ this afternoon.
The outlet reports, “The actress’ boyfriend, Roy Hernandez, tells TMZ … Daveigh died Tuesday from meningitis and an infection in her blood, which caused her to have septic issues and led to her body shutting down.” The website’s report continues, “We’re told Daveigh had been admitted to a hospital in Los Angeles earlier this month because of malnutrition.”
Here in the horror world, a young Daveigh Chase memorably played Samara in Gore Verbinski’s 2002 horror movie The Ring, the American remake of the Japanese horror hit.
Far outside the horror world, Daveigh Chase voiced Lilo in the 2002 animated movie Lilo & Stitch, a character she continued to voice in various animated spinoff projects.
Chase also appeared as Samantha Darko in the 2001 classic Donnie Darko, later returning to play the sister of Donnie Darko in the 2009 spinoff movie titled S. Darko.
Daveigh Chase’s resume also includes roles on the TV shows “Sabrina the Teenage Witch,” “Charmed,” “ER,” “Touched by an Angel,” “CSI,” “Cold Case,” and 32 episodes of “Big Love.”
Chase appeared in the films The Rats, Silence, Carolina, Beethoven’s 5th, Yellow, Little Red Wagon, Transference, Killer Crush, Jack Goes Home, and American Romance.
We send our deepest condolences to Daveigh Chase’s family, friends, and fans.
