Death is an inevitable part of a BitLife character’s journey, with some Bitlifers being a large part of someone else’s demise. If your BitLife character has murderous intentions, there are many ways to cause another person’s death. Here is everything you need to know about scaring someone to death in BitLife.
How to scare a person to death in BitLife

There are lots of ways to kill other people in BitLife, from poisoning to impaling, and even feeding them elephant laxatives. Murder is not something to commit lightly, but sometimes you have no choice if it is part of a challenge, such as the Woeful Wednesday challenge.
From the age of 14 years old, your character can murder another person in BitLife, but they will risk being sent to juvie if they get caught. There is a long list of people available to murder:
- Parents
- Siblings (over 18 only)
- Spouse
- Co-workers
- Teachers
- Exes
- Random folk
If you don’t want to be caught, it is best to choose a stranger, such as a random hobo, bartender, or wandering troubadour.
To scare someone to death, the murder method has to appear on the list when you go to Activities > Crime > Murder. Only six of the 14 murder methods appear in the list, and whatever appears is completely random, so you may have to refresh the app or age up to find the method you require.
If your victim fights back and your murder is unsuccessful, they may report you to the police, or you will just have to age up and try again.
If you successfully murder five people, or pay a hitman to murder five people, you will earn the Deadly ribbon. If you get caught, however, you can face up to 80 years in prison for a successful murder or 50 years for an attempted murder. Of course, you could always try to escape prison if you don’t want to be locked up.
