Prequel?

Taken from the Facebook group. Figured I'd share it here too.
"Hey everyone!
I’ve gotten the opportunity to talk to Brett Clements, one of the original creators of the Nightmare/Atmosfear franchise.
Brett does not own his half of the copyright anymore due to an incident outside of his control, so he does not have the ability to create things for the present or future story of the game, but he can write prequel content.
He is currently working on a 3D board game and ten releases of a mobile game.
The original Nightmare/Atmosfear is set in an amusement park (you can see this concept in the old cancelled SNES game). The prequels also share this setting.
Nightmare/Atmosfear is one attraction in a travelling carnival called Carney Island, which is run by the Bogan Bros. There are 10 worlds and 10 harbingers, including the 6 we know and love and 4 that we’ve never seen. All of the Harbingers are in a big house which has 10 levels.
New Harbingers: The Shape Shrifter (no that isn’t a typo, he is also known as Uncle Shrift). He’s a shape shifter, if you didn’t guess The Shape Shrifter is the character that I’ve heard the most about, the others include cannibals in a poison jungle and a ghost pirate. The Shrifter can turn into things and you have seconds to guess what it is.
The prequel game is supposed to be part monopoly, part trivial pursuit, part dungeons and include the humour of Nightmare. There is single player vs Uncle Shrift, or multi player.
There will eventually be a Kickstarter. Watch for it in the future
