ghost in the graveyard
Nighttime hiding game
Ghost in the graveyard is a children's outdoor game played at dusk or after dark, essentially hide-and-seek in reverse.
One player hides while the others search; when someone spots the hidden player, they shout "Ghost in the graveyard!" and everyone races to a safe base.
We played ghost in the graveyard until our parents called us in.
