How a scene is lit is an essential component for tone and tension. Where dungeons have torches that sputter out, Liminal Horror has:

  • Headlights of an old truck
  • Light from a television on static
  • Neon refracted through rain
  • Halogen lights through fog
  • Flickering fluorescent
  • Embers through smoke
  • Crackling bonfire
  • Light from a phone (engulfed by darkness)
  • Pull from a cigarette
  • Blinking turn signal
  • Cracked glow stick
  • Outside siren lights coming in through a window
  • Crashed car with hazard lights flashing
  • Red exit sign lights
  • Lighthouse light spinning
  • Flare smoldering in a ditch
  • A lighter being lit and relit
  • A stuttering torch with dying batteries
  • The light of a full moon
  • Camcorder light attachment
