Anyone energetic enough to stat up the original meddling kids, Frank and Joe Hardy and Nancy Drew? The boys began their crime-busting careers in 1929 and Nancy followed a year later. While the 1970s television incarnation portrayed them as near adults, American culture was quite different when they debuted. At 16 and 17, Frank and Joe were still very much boys, focused on after-school baseball, weekend day trips with their pals, practical jokes, being obedient and respectful towards their parents and other adult authority figures (with the exception of Bayport's incompetent police chief). They were just beginning to become interested in girls, but all social contact was in a group setting, usually at one of their parents' homes. Dating, as we know it, didn't exist, at least not for children. They used their reward money from solving crimes to acquire such high-tech gear as motorcycles and speed boats. Unlike the middle-class Hardys, Nancy Drew came from a wealthy lawyer's family, owned her own car, and in early adventures packed a revolver (something the Hardy Boys never did, even in their later escapades). Tough broad!

Uh oh...says unavailable. Luckily for me, when CryptWorld was revealed I bought a bunch of old Chill books on Bartertown for cheap. This was one of them.

Rules for kids can really come in handy. There can be several campaigns featuring kids.
Charlie Higson's books The Dead, The Fear, etc.
Simon Clark's book Blood Crazy.
Stephen King has Cycle of the Werewolf, Silver Bullet, Children of the Corn.
And of course the movie MONSTERSQUAD!
Fun!
