Due to money problems, we used the same actress. We were experiencing big problems, so by No4 you could see not only the same actress, but the same backdrop.
You can get them transferred from VHS to DVD relatively cheap and the original Nightmare is running around 32 bucks on Amazon. So it's not that bad at this moment.
The original game (The Gatekeeper) was released on DVD version in 2004 and another with Khufu in 2006. I don't know if they're still available, though.
There was plans, a supposed release date to release the original 4 games on DVD, but we have yet to hear anything about that, maybe it’s been cancelled, but then again, The Gatekeeper DVD remake took 9 years to make.
My kids and I made a new version of The Nightmare Board Game you can play through RU-vid and with a deck of cards. It was super fun to do...I love the original games! If you like them, you will likely like what we did as well! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-70ZLhjycUZg.html
There was a rumour that the actor who played countess Bathory played Anne de chantraine. That is NOT true. Anne de chantraine was played by Michelle (I forget her second name), countess Bathory was played by a Canadian actor, Frederique.
kevgor138 copied the text from each and printed them on blank playing cards only problem is that I'd you're not playing with a full six players many of the cards are useless
