🔥 WE’RE LOOKING FOR YOUNG TALENT (14+) TO STAR IN A GRAPHIC HORROR EXPERIENCE! 🔥
Step into the shadows of a terrifying prison escape…
You’ll appear in immersive video sequences that put players face-to-face with fear. In this newly designed game, you are the story and the clues.
👤 PRINCIPAL ROLES (Speaking)
🎭 Ethan – The Innocent One (Male, 14–17)
Naive, terrified, emotional, wears his heart on his sleeve.
🎭 Jason – The Bad Boy (Male, 14–17)
Cocky, rebellious, hides fear with swagger and sarcasm.
🎭 Maya – The Resourceful Girl (Female, 14–17)
Smart, determined, takes charge under pressure but still vulnerable.
👥 BACKGROUND ROLES
👀 Juvenile Inmates (14–19)
Up to 10 performers featured on prison surveillance monitors inside the game. Lots of physical acting — pacing, glaring, reacting — to make the “live feed” feel real.
