Dead Signal: Text Horror
Real-Time Choice Thriller
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
This Halloween, a stranger texts you for help. She's hiding. Something's hunting her. And she's waiting for your reply. Don't leave her on read.
11:47 PM. Unknown Number.
"please"
"i found this number in my pocket"
"i dont know where i am"
Her name is Megan. She's trapped in an old house, someone is hunting her, and yours is the only number she has.
Dead Signal is a horror story told entirely through text messages, in real time. Talk her through the dark, make choices you can't take back, and find out how far you'll go for a stranger.
SHE TEXTS YOU IN REAL TIME
Megan's messages arrive throughout your day, just like texts from a real person. She waits while you're at work. She hides while you sleep. When your phone buzzes, she needs you.
EVERY REPLY COUNTS
What you say decides what happens next. Earn her trust or raise her suspicion. Search for weapons or dig for secrets. Some choices are on a timer, and every mistake has consequences.
7 ENDINGS
Escape. Revelation. Something far worse. Some endings are earned, some have to be discovered, and one changes everything you thought you knew.
WHAT'S INSIDE
- 2–4 hours of branching story
- Push notifications that read like real texts
- Timed choices that won't wait until you're ready
- A trust system that remembers how you treated her
- Atmospheric 80s VHS horror style

She found your number in the dark. Now you're all she has.
Can you save her?
Should you?
