The book. The book knows. All my secrets, all my shame. All my struggle all my strife. Do not open the book. Do not open the book.

The Book of Darkness is a book that has traveled through time relatively untouched. Today, it would merely look like a really old book, maybe from the 19th century. The book has no formal title, and is only referred to in very obscure folk lore as "The Book of Darkness". What's special about this book, is that it can only be opened at night, any attempts otherwise and it would seem like it was stuck shut. The book can only be opened indoors as well. Once the book has been opened, a challenge is presented to all people within the room that it was opened. Once they have been challenged, the top priority is to survive, while trying to end the challenge. The book has the ability to manifest objects, creatures, anything it needs. The challenges can, and will be life threatening to the characters. After a challenge is completed, the book will close, but the building will remain unable to escape from until the characters have completed every challenge in the book. The book has come into possession of an unknowing librarian (either a PC or myself, if I get no volunteers) who opens it, sending the library and all of it's inhabitants into a realm of darkness. The challenges reflect the characters deepest fears, worst shames and darkest secrets.

I'd love to try this out. Would it be primarily fantasy/Sci-Fi, however?
It would be primarily horror/action with some fantasy and sci fi elements. It will take place on Earth in the present day.
This sounds really interesting. Consider me in if this gets enough interest.
Very a la Gantz and I like the bibliophile aspect to it. Very interested in this story. I can see a very Seven (the movie) thriller vibe to it, of course with the supernatural horror. I also like how you incorporated a infamous serial killer into it. I wanna know more!
