Inspired by media like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, X-Files, Twin Peaks, Supernatural, and more, Bump in the Dark is a game of supernatural mystery and action-packed showdowns with regular folk caught in the middle. It's a game about chosen family, protecting your community, and standing up to the forces (mundane and supernatural alike) that want to tear down all you've built.

The goal of this campaign is to raise funds to print and produce Bump in the Dark: Revised Edition, a re-imagined and streamlined version of the popular Forged in the Dark game of monster hunting and chosen family.
In this newly revised edition, you'll find:
- Updated rules to streamline play and provide support for players and GMs
- Newly commissioned original art
- A polished downtime system perfectly tuned to tell the kinds of stories you want to tell
- Expanded information on more than 25 factions that bring Iron Country to life
- Guidance on changing the game, including making a bespoke setting, creating new pact types, modifying the rules, and tweaking other elements of the game
- More oracles and reference materials to help you prepare for and run the game
- Fully hyperlinked and indexed PDF
- Text-only version for e-readers
- All available in a gorgeous premium hardcover
We're really excited about this opportunity and we need your help to make it happen!
"While Forged in the Dark may have been written for heists, Bump in the Dark shows how it shines for monster hunting and investigation, and Last Pine is a place that needs monster hunters. Jex's take on Iron Country may challenge Stephen King's Maine for one of my favorite horror locales." - Richard Ruane, ENNIES-winning author of Moonlight on Roseville Beach and Sherwood
"Bump in the Dark is my go-to RPG for urban fantasy. If I ever want found family paranormal stories like Buffy, Night in the Woods, or Supernatural, I reach for this game." - Michael Elliott, Not Writing Games
