So I am learning about haunts and whatnot. Searching the forums has been helpful in answering most of my questions. However one is still outstanding.
What really does the notice roll have on a haunt encounter.
I mean once a haunt manifests then everyone would notice it, whether you are under it's effects or not.
Is the only benefit in noticing a haunt the ability to act in the surprise round before the haunt "grabs hold of you"?

Yes; then you can apply positive energy/unique weaknesses to it. Since haunts go on AC 10, the right people being able to act in a surprise round can nullify it before it activates (like any other encounter).
