The Kids are Not Alright

This is a larp about troubled children and the monsters under their bed. It draws inspiration from the horror trope of the haunted child who makes creepy drawings of ghosts and monsters,  disturbing the adults around him. The little boy from The Sixth Sense who ‘sees dead people’ is the prime example. But there are a ton of other references: the Babadook, Donnie Darko, Mama, Hide and Seek etc. In this larp, half the group will play such a child, while the other half will play a child psychologist called in to assess their mental condition.
