So im thinking about starting up a survival horror campaign based in bug city prior and during the quarantine, but to do that I need details, Any manageable elaboration of the events that led up to and happened during the infestation would be greatly appreciation, as for the time due, I only got access to the small excerpt from BBB, any reference to a setting book based in Chicago during the quarantine would be even better (well, unless it doesnt have what im looking for)

Its quite possible and also very probable that I will change the turn of events a bit, to up the drama.. keep the players on their feet and add to that, oh so lovely Post-apocalyptic feel of isolation.. which brings me to my second point, bug spirits might be scary but its certainly not enough to make me players look around their RL backs to make sure there is no bug lying in ambush and hyperventilating when the IC lights suddenly go out, Have any of you fellows ever attempted anything like this? what was your experience of it, how does it work with the rules, and most important.. any suggestions or tips?

If anyone is interested horror GMing I have a few tricks of the trade of my own

Now then...light the candles.. no low-light allowed (IMG:style_emoticons/default/devil.gif)
