Even with all its flaws, I love running people through Tomb of Horrors.

I usually freeform people through City of Terrors for Tunnels & Trolls, I have a cheat sheet to where stats and major rooms are in the book if I care, but mostly just eyeball good MR for 20 Orcs or jaguars or whatever.

"Amber Waves" in the Apocthulhu Quickstart is really nice, a little road trip, cult, bad food, human sacrifices, fun for the whole family (if by "fun" you mean "dousing in gasoline and setting on fire"). Apocthulhu's quickly become my favorite horror game, because there's so few happy endings. One-shot, then do something different.
