From publisher blurb:
Your van has broken down in front of a scary place (again)! On your way to a student festival, you'll have to deal with a supernatural threat. Vampires, werewolves, ghosts... What will you have to survive this time? Fortunately, the 80's student never loses the sense of festivity!
The Van in the Night is a super light horror RPG about students who break down in the middle of nowhere. The starting pitch is inspired by Scooby-Doo, The Faculty, Scream, and the general atmosphere of 80's movies like Ghostbusters, Night of the Living Dead, Freddy...
