A bunch of us Seattle gamers are hosting a horror gaming marathon to raise money for American Cancer Society. We're live streaming an attempt to play 20+ horror games for the entire weekend before Halloween (and maybe longer). We'd really like you guys to check it out and help us spread the word. It goes down on October 26th at Nightmarathon.net.

Plus 3 secret unlockable games!
There are viewer achievements that you can unlock by donating and helping promote our event. We pledge to beat every unlocked game before Nightmarathon ends! We are not speed runners or even experts at these games, so if you guys unlock "RE1 Knife Only" or "Super Ghouls'n Ghosts", we could have our work seriously cut out for us! Check out our achievements page to see how you can start unlocking games!
We've got tons of giveaways from sponsors like Valve, ArenaNet, I-Mockery.com, and a few retro game retailers. There will also be special guest appearances from Nathan Barnatt (Keith Apicary) and Pat the NES Punk!
Contests! Giveaways!
- Fan Art Contests: Submit art, crafts, Halloween costumes, bad photoshops! Our picks win!
- Game Trivia Contests: We'll show a screenshot or play game music; name the game to win!
- Random Prize Drawings for donors and anyone who links to us on twitter!
- Auction Tournaments: Bid on fighting game tournament players, if your player wins the tournament, you win a prize!
We also have a feature we're calling the "Terror Chamber" where the person playing a particularly scary game that they've never played before will have to play it alone in a pitch black room with headphones. You will watch them squirm and jump as well as watch the rest of us laugh at them from the main room!
You can check our Facebook page or Twitter for updates! Please tune in to Nightmarathon.net on October 26th to help us make this fundraiser a success!
