Witching Hour is a script made to incite paranoia and suspicion during both night and day. Trusting the wrong person or executing someone who was maybe just a little bit too eager to die may lead to the game being much shorter than anticipated and leave Good players in the dark. The script includes a new hidden Outsider, the Cursed, who, despite believing they are a Townsfolk and having a working ability, might register as anything to anyone. Are people suspecting you because they are Evil and trying to frame you, or are you unknowingly the Cursed?
The Evil team is especially designed to fit the theme of the script:
Daytime paranoia: The Body Stealer, the Succubus and the Vengeful Spirit all interact with nominations and executions. Fear of these abilities may cast doubt on Good players who would be too eager to nominate, especially powerful Townsfolk that have good reasons to do so, such as the Blood Artist and the Hedge Witch.
Doubt and suspicion: The Black Bishop is probably the wildest design of this script, as he can create a team of delusional Good players who believe they are Evil, complete with a fake Demon and fake Minions. If other players are believing your claims to be Good too easily, it might be because you really are Good and don't know it yet! Conversely, the Maiden of Lust can turn even the most mechanically confirmed Good player Evil.
Information withholding: The Vampire is a very powerful Minion that punishes Good players who share their information too quickly with extra night death. However, these night deaths can easily be hidden behind the varying kill count of the Werewolf and even some Good abilities that might trigger extra deaths, such as the Inquisitor and the Dhampir. The Vampire also has interesting synergies with the other Minions on the script: players who are Cursed by the Succubus may die to any guess of the Vampire, Devotees of the Black Bishop are easy to guess to bring the game to a sudden end, and the Vampire can easily frame last day's executee as being a Vengeful Spirit to justify the extra casualties.
