About this episode

As a society we are obsessed with games. We love to watch them and cheer for our favorite teams. We love to play with our friends. But sometimes, the fear of losing will make you so desperate you will do whatever it takes to win. Even if it means risking your own life and taking down everyone else around you in your fatal games.


First, a small box of death

Followed by a killer game of Truth or Dare

Then, a mother's living nightmare

Finally in our featured story, a fatal game of Bloody Mary
