What do you guys think would be the best system for a haunted house-based adventure conducted over Roll20?

If you've ever played Project Zero/Fatal Frame, I want to go for that kind of atmosphere with an emphasis on exploration and puzzles but with some malevolent ghosts which increase in number and danger as the players get closer to solving the mysteries of the house.

I want players to be mostly forced to flee from ghosts, or perhaps use limited items to seal a ghost within a room (which would then render that room inaccessible).

I will also accept ideas for spooky ghosts.

For example, I was thinking about an obviously foreboding, perhaps presealed room which turns out to be a child's bedroom. Inside is a chest of drawers, itself sealed. If someone opens a drawer then the horrifying ghost of a child slowly emerges. As it is released, this ghost may now appear anytime a drawer or similar object is opened in the rest of the mansion.

For the past few years, I have been compulsively running a setting with spaceships, world-terraforming, laser guns, ansible-internet-connected computers and smartphones, televisions, memory uploads and VR sensoriums, mind-recording and mind-resleeving into new bodies, artificial intelligences, bioaugmentations and cybernetic implants (some of which are hereditary), controversies over implants, cloning, nanomachines, and so on. People travel to different planets. There are megacorporations.

However, all of it is literally magic, and the setting is Planescape's Great Wheel (focusing on the Outer Planes) with a touch of 4e's World Axis.

The spaceships are highly advanced spelljammers, world-terraforming is an alchemical balancing act of Inner Planar elements, the laser guns project arcane force, the ansible-internet-connected computers and smartphones are matrices of divination and illusion, the televisions work through scrying, the memory uploads and VR sensoriums work ala the Society of Sensation, the mind-resleeving into new bodies is advanced reincarnation at the hands of the Believers of the Source and the Dustmen, the artificial intelligences are incorporeal constructs, the bioaugmentations and cybernetic implants are biomancy (also hereditary), there are huge controversies over things like altralothic implants, the clones are illusory simulacra and necromantic clones, the nanomachines are elementites, and so on.

There is planet-hopping, there is plane-hopping, there is exploration of the uncharted reaches of the infinite multiverse, there are dozens-miles-long capital ships. The Great Wheel's factions are cyberpunk-like monolothic megacorporations, only with much more benevolence and appeal to PCs.

Have you ever run or played in a sci-fi setting with a purely magic-focused paradigm like this?

For that matter, what are your favorite sci-fi-isms that you would like to see filtered through a magical, planar-fantasy lens?

Would you have fun in such a setting?

Check any image(s) with characters you see and post 3 to 5 lines of greentext detailing an interesting character based on that image. But if you've got more than 3 or 5 lines to tell, then go ahead. You can contribute by posting your own image, even as a form of a bump

And remember to have fun.

How do you like your 'magic power source' to work?

Is it Mana like in Magic? Or mana from more stereotypical sources like JRPGs? Does your favorite setting or homebrew world eschew the use of 'magic points' entirely?

How anachronistic do you allow your games to be if it's set in a fantasy world? Personally, I wouldn't mind adding some modern entertainment technology in my game if it doesn't serve that big of a purpose. Like that one Dragon-Half OVA.

I need a good table design for large board games and wargames. 6' or 8'x4' (8' width best for a single table, 6' is good for adding additional tables to), breaks down at least by half, and I want it to be able to be freestanding or sit on top of a table. Any good designs out there that you are aware of?

Can a game be inherently comfy, even before the input of the GM? How?

So would Pennywise The Clown from IT be any considerable threat to an individual Grey Knight?

Considering Stephen King's original book states that Pennywise is some being from a void outside of the Universe. And can only be perceived in a certain way as the human mind cannot comprehend his true form. But Grey Knights stomp shit like that on the regular.

Would Pennywise even have a chance against one that does not know fear and is purely meant to banish creatures like him?

only asking because I want to get more opinions in a very autistic debate with a friend on this and /tg/ hasn't failed me in the past with escalating or solving autistic debates
