A downloadable game for Windows

IMPORTANT

I've noticed a few people getting stuck on what to do, so here are some non-spoilery tips:

The supernatural tends to leave some trace behind.  This will be emphasized by chatter on the spiritbox if you are near it.  

Taking photos, even if the spirit is no longer present, will often reveal "spirit orbs" in the photo as evidence that something paranormal has or is occurring.  

Simply looking around in the camera viewer will not reveal these things.  You must capture them in photographs.  

This game is short, but it's also a bit of a slow burn.  Things are more subtle than your typical horror game.  Relax, wear headphones, and explore / have fun!


A short experimental horror game made for the Game Development Month Jam.

It is intended to be played in a single sitting and with audio enabled.

And I oop, jumpscare ! Loved it, great use of the resident evil-like controls, fun to explore and good ending !

I aint scared of no ghost

I really enjoyed this game. The story was great and jumpscares got me almost every time lol. Of all the indie games I have played, this one is the first one that made me sad because of the ending twist. Overall, great work and I hope to see more games from you in the future!

😊👍

This is a fairly nice horror game. A tad short, but I did like the twist you put in. TBH though,I feel the house is a tad empty. Maybe put in some ghosts that messes with the player or something like that. Beyond that, keep it up.
