The discussion of Halloween LARP on the recent podcast reminded me of this: the Talisman pub crawl, a booze-fuelled semi-LARP based on the fantasy adventure board game of that name. I’ve played it on two occasions, once as the Scout and once as something else I don’t remember.
edit: Looking at the character options, I think I was the Knight. That would explain some of the things that happened.

I have a well-battered first edition Talisman; this pub crawl bit is delightful and nostalgic and I may wave it at my games group next week.
1e is the same at core as the fourth, but there are enough changes for it to be noticeably different, if the ipad app is close. The Death NPC following you around is probably biggest.
