Taboo: Horror

Nothing is quite as terrifying as saying the wrong thing in Taboo: Horror. Taking turns to describe one of 900 Guess words, you'll score a point for every one you get correct… but beware, don't say any of the Taboo words, or your opponent will push the screaming buzzer, and you will lose points! Guess Words include objects, locations, and more from across horror… open it up and play if you're brave enough. This terrifying twist on the classic word-guessing game will have players on the edge of their seats as they navigate eerie challenges, spine-tingling forbidden words, and ghastly penalties.

Perfect for Halloween parties or any gathering that craves a good scare, this version of Taboo combines the suspense of horror with the fast-paced excitement of the original game. Just like the original, the goal is to get your teammates to guess the word on the card without uttering any of the forbidden words. But in this twisted version, the words are drawn from the darkest corners of your worst nightmares. If you slip up and say a taboo word, the dreaded buzzer will sound, and your team loses the point. Beware! In Taboo: Horror Edition, that buzzer can be as terrifying as the topics!
