Scary Girl

Quote 1:**“***I want to come on the show and make a lot of new friends, and then watch them get really hurt! Yeah, I'd like that.***”**
― Scary Girl, Season 1

**Scary Girl** is a returning contestant from the 2023 reboot and its' subsequent rematch. She's a member of Chef's Kissers.

## Personality

Lauren's depiction in Cruise Control is a drastic departure from her initial role in Total Drama's prior seasons. For one, she'll actually have some sort of backstory with most of it only being revealed outside of the season.

Reminiscent of Ezekiel, she's sheltered with no real grasp on the real world. She was raised by traveling circus performers and was basically used as a circus act her whole life; never socialized with other kids, never went to school, she was isolated and created Lauren's Scary Girl persona. Lauren developed an obsession with macabre and horrifying qualities from performances as a child.

Due to this upbringing Lauren completely lacks social etiquette but genuinely tries to make friends in Cruise Control's canon. Due to her role in the story, people break off from Scary Girl including an entire alliance. This leaves her angry and unable to really get why; even if she has some sort of self awareness. Scary usually didn't care and embraced how she came off to others, but it really gets to her after a certain point.

Especially after what happens on the show, Scary Girl eventually doesn't act like herself in the first few episodes of Cruise Control. She gets colder, bitter, defensive, and a lot less reactive to try to appear "approachable". Lauren actively neuters her Scary Girl personality to avoid taking risks in the game, as she has no idea how social standards like being approachable even works. She starts warming up and becoming more like herself throughout the pre-merge.
