Starting Points for Horror and Halloween
pdfs | characters | places & undead | vampires & monsters | witches
This is a guide to generators you can use for a Horror or Halloween themed evening, adventure, one-shot or campaign. Themes I'd associate with horror are night, spirits, the undead, fear, the unknown and our inner doubts
Horror adventures cover stories of urban fantasy with vampire, investigators of Call of Cthulu, adventurers caught in dark realms such as Ravenloft and classics such as full moons, the evil that comes at night and cheesy horror films.
Related generator guides include dark fantasy and ravenloft & DnD horror. Tools supporting a post-apocalyptic theme are found in the Post Apocalyptic Generators Guide

Vampires and Other Monsters

This energetic vampire has narrow blue eyes that are like two sapphires. His fine, wavy, brown hair is worn in a style that reminds you of a lionfish's spines. He is tall and has a graceful build. His skin is pale. He can command his body parts, even if they are severed. He subsists on the blood of other vampires. His outfits are usually gray.
From full vampire description at 7th Sanctum

There are more to witches than stereotypical black cats and broomsticks.
Start with a Witch Name or maybe a Necromancer Name. Then they might be part of a Coven or Cabal. You might interrupt their Dark Ritual or find them handing out Tarot Cards.
For an alternative take try Mad Scientists in their Laboratory performing their experiments.
