Parker Brother's "Screech" game

[PNGwynne]

Does anyone recall (or have) this spooky matching game? I'm obsessed with finding one--I saw one on ebay several years ago from England but missed out on it.

"Screech" was a purple owl-shaped projector whose spinning, light-up eyes showed various spooky images; the game featured coordinating glow-in-the-dark cards.

I had one as a kid--nostalgia is the impetus for so much of my collecting.

their was an older post on the boards here from a few years back that talked about this game

I've never owned one, but I have weird memories of it.... so maybe one of my friends had it way back when.

I received a MIB one from my partner for Christmas!! I still can't quite believe it, barring a Parker SI or Great White Shark, it's a grail for me.

It's just as I remember, very cool--the US version with the cards, rather than the Palitoy rubber creatures.

My sister had that and I recall sitting in the darker alcoves of the house projecting images with its eyes. Kudos on the grail find!

Thanks! And thanks RTB for linking that awesome commercial.

I think it would be possible to do a repro sack of creatures.

It's funny that you mention that--we did that a lot more than actually playing the game!

Congrats on the find!!! It is a super cool looking game which I have very, very faint memories of. If you actually open it and play the thing would love to see a video of that thing going (other than the super nice tv commercial posted by Retrotoyboy)

That is so cool! Congrats.
