Second night tips:
'¢ As you can see the first night is about building tension the next night is more about movement and faster pacing. I have found players like this kind of slow build-up the first night but a possibly shorter second night
'¢ You will need a space closed off to players where your actors can gather and rest, eat and switch costumes if needed.
'¢ Think very carefully about what to do with players who are killed off/ taking out. Do they become actors or do they gather in a particular place while the game continues? If they become actors make sure to be ready with costume bits, direction and general support (nobody likes to '˜lose' so give them something cool to do for the rest of the game to keep everyone working towards an excellent game).
