I seriously hope they are not going to use real graveyards, mabey it's just me but i find that a bit disrespectful. Besides how would they explain/get permission from the caretakers to do this?

And it's not like everyone's going to run around the graveyard screaming their heads off, right?

I suppose it would be nice if we made sure to dress in something "nice'ish" rather then ratty cut off jeens and a t-shirt that says "Beekeepers do it with payphones" or something.

I don't know, but considering the type of stuff that happens in graveyards here around Halloween...well...this seems pretty mild. (Then again, maybe it's a local thing. We have a lot of graveyards.)

I'm not sure it's any more disrespectful than filming a movie with a shoot-out in a graveyard, or having a scavenger hunt that uses a cemetery.

I view anything that gets people out and reading the names that are carved on those tombstones and includeing those names in with the living, especialy in a fun way, is one of the most respectfull things you can do at a graveyard. I will bet that youwill rember the names of that winning hand you get.

on another note, this game remindes me of the time we went grave digging..... no really we did! The game was "find the grave stone" see at the graveyard in town, they had a section that was on a bit of a slope and the flat gravestones (the ones they like you to have these days so that the riding mower can go right over it) get covered up after years of rain and erosion. So we take a long metal rod and went diveing for gravestones. once found we dug them up and brought them to the surface. Some of them were many feet deep, which was kinda creepy.
