Kind of like "And Then There Were None" (it's a famous mystery novel).
Closed environment. Everybody has secrets. Someone kills them off one by one... but see: closed environment, thus the killer is one of them... that, or maybe someone is hiding there watching them?

Supernatural or fantasy elements are welcome, I love them.

Also taking manga and VN suggestions.

Thanks in advance!

In Manga Doubt comes to mind,here's the synopsis:

Quote:

There's a game going around Japan called 'Rabbit Doubt'. The premise of the game is that all of the players are rabbits in a colony, and one amongst them is randomly chosen to be a wolf that infiltrated the group of rabbits. Every round, the wolf kills off a rabbit, and every round, the group tries to figure out which of the rabbits is actually a wolf in disguise. Sometimes the kids who play this game decide to meet up in person, and Yuu, Mitsuki, Rei, Hajime, Eiji, and Haruka have done just that. Unfortunately, one of them has decided to take on the mantle of the wolf and has already killed once. Who is the wolf, and can they be stopped before everyone meets a very unpleasant end?

Gosick had an 2 episode arc like this...

Baccano!, a train robbery with several gangs killing each other yet there is someone else known as Rail Tracer who is killing everyone off on his/her/it own accord.

Ghost Hunt had an arc known as Bloody Labirinth. Several people come to investigate the house where a lot of people had dissapeared in the past and slowly start to dissapear themselves... It was one of the best arcs which starts at episode 18 and ends at 21. Though series are good over all.

Shiki, not exactly what you want but it is basicly about a village where people suddenly start to die one after another and epidemy becomes a main guess of the cause, but is it so?

Higurashi ( the real title is really long) is an adaptation from VN, it's horror based, people often compare it to Umineko so I think you should love it.

Quite old but still watch-able ( new word? )
