Naked and Afraid is a game when a group of friends (presumably straight men) all get naked and turn off the lights, except one who is declared “the scary man”, who gets to wear a mask. The scary man then gets to choose a weapon of his choice which can go from a wide variety of weapons from a belt to a boot. When the scary man is chosen and everyone is naked you are now ready to begin the game. To begin the game all must put their hands on The Bible and at the count of three everybody says no homo to ensure the least amount of homo as possible. After this, the lights are turned off and Slipknot is blasted on as many speakers as possible. When the lights are off everybody in the room scatters and the scary man waits a few seconds before he goes on his rampage and attacks everyone with his weapon. Once you have been hit, you are out of the game. Essentially, a very intense game of hide and go seek. Urban Dictionary
