The 100 Candles Game
A group of friends must confront their fears in a terrifying game. They must sit by the other players in a circle made of a hundred candles, take one of them and tell a horror story. As stories are told and candles blown out, strange events will start to happen. They will feel strange presences around them, lurking in the shadows. But they MUST NOT leave the game or else a terrible curse will fall upon them...
Why it matters
A slow-burn séance of storytelling where dread seeps from every flickering flame, blending folk horror ritual with psychological unease.
- Practical effects and candlelit shadows create an intimate, claustrophobic atmosphere that recalls regional ghost stories around a campfire.
- A meta-horror setup that toys with the power of narrative and the fear of the unseen, ideal for fans of ritualistic and psychological horror.
- Uneven pacing and minimal action may frustrate viewers craving traditional scares, but the mounting tension rewards patience.
- Echoes of films like The Ritual and The Blair Witch Project, with a focus on atmosphere over spectacle—perfect for quiet, late-night dread.
