What is Blood on the Clocktower? Blood on the Clocktower is an advanced version of the game Werewolf, and crucially the dead still have an important role to play in the game. The game is run by a Storyteller who has carefully crafted an experience and facilitates the game for up to 20 players. It is part deduction and part deception. Set in the little village of Ravenswood Bluff, players in the game assume different roles, each with unique abilities to hunt down the evil or stay hidden as one.

For new players, check out this video created by our head storyteller Jeremy, to learn the basics of the game ahead of the event. There will also be time at the top of the game to review rules and ask questions.

Attire: For a game like Blood on the Clocktower, which thrives on atmosphere and a mysterious setting, what we encourage for attire, but do not require, are garments with dark, moody colours like black, deep purple, or blood red.

If you want to go full out for your own immersive fun, to help set the tone and vibe of our story, think of an eerie, almost haunted feel; a Victorian or Gothic aesthetic.
