For Halloween I am thinking of running a game of Dread. I have a couple people that have not role-played before, so I thought Dread would be a fun choice to minimize the rules and allow them to have more fun role-playing.
The problem is that I have never run Dread before. I haven't been a GM for years, but I used to run CoC regularly. I have the quickstart rules for Dread and I was going to run the free introductory scenario, The Mask (slasher film story).
I am not intimidated by the game, but I want to ensure we have the most enjoyable time possible, especially for the newbies. Does anyone have any best practices or techniques they have formed to run a great game of Dread?
