Dead Teenager RPG - Paperback

You’re young.

You’re reckless.

You’re absolutely making the wrong decision.

Dead Teenager RPG is a tabletop role-playing game inspired by classic slasher films — where poor choices, bad timing, and terrible luck are not just possible… they’re inevitable.

This isn’t a game about trained heroes.

It’s a game about teens who should have stayed home.

You play high school and college-age characters trapped in a nightmare scenario — an isolated camp, an abandoned house, a roadside motel, a small town with a secret.

There’s a killer.

You don’t know who.

You don’t know why.

And you’re probably splitting up.

How It Plays

The system focuses on tension, bad decisions, and survival under pressure.

Characters are defined by personality, social dynamics, and archetypes — not tactical combat builds. Popularity, relationships, and fear matter as much as physical ability.

The game escalates scene by scene:

• Suspicion
• Isolation
• Panic
• Chase
• Confrontation

Some characters will die.

Some might survive.

One may become the Final Survivor.

What You’ll Find Inside

• A fast-play system built for horror pacing
• Archetype-driven character creation
• Social tension and rivalry mechanics
• Escalating danger structure for cinematic storytelling
• Designed for one-shots or short horror arcs
• Emphasis on atmosphere over crunch

Perfect For

• 3–8 players
• Fans of classic slasher films
• Groups who enjoy tension, betrayal, and dramatic character moments
• Halloween sessions and horror-themed game nights
