So on a friends recommendation i started watching 'The Haunting of Hill House' on Goyflix and it made me think about movies like House on Haunted Hill, 13 Ghosts, The Haunting and it lead to thinking about gamers where haunted settings are the big deal.

Theres some like Ghost Hunter and Fatal Frame but they get very fantastical and thats before more out there stuff like Echo Night Beyond that is straight up "Moons Haunted" the game.

What games do you recall that take place in a serious haunting? Not comedic/zany stuff like Ghost Master but straight up "guns are pointless this is the midnight train to spook town motherfucker" tier haunted locations. Bio-Curses need not apply.

Go play DreadOut.

>>15670676

dreadout was a bit too walking simulator for me. It was focussed more on 'look a ghost' than why the ghost is there. Even for all of its many, many flaws Murdered: Soul Suspect would give backstories to areas and its ghosts.

Silent Hill 4's ghost could fuck you up.

Ghostbusters, ironically. There are a couple legitimately spooky levels like the Library "Children…", second time you go to the Sedgewick and the Cultist island.

There is a source mod horror game duology called Nightmare House, it sounds right up your alley.

Invidious embed. Click thumbnail to play.

You made me remember a couple of shitty games I saw when I was younger.

Haunted investigations and Paranormal. Holy fuck, those games where shitty.

Don't do that. Watch the good version instead.

I remember played the original map then the mod. The map was way better than the mod IMO that ending twist was so fucking bad

If I were to develop a game in the future I think I will literally name the easiest mode like that or Gaming Journalist Mode, something like that.

>>15670943

Monkey Island 3 actually did that, IIRC. Or at least I think the "easy mode" (more hints and some riddles were removed) was described as being "for people with no experience in adventure games and gaming journalists", or something like that.

Death Mark is like that. It's a game similar to Phoenix Wright where you investigate an area and collect items and clues that will end up helping you purify the ghost. However as a warning: ESRB forced them to censor a rather tame scene despite there being far more sexual and violent scenes uncensored. Like it fucking makes no sense.

I can't remember saying anything about watching K-On, just the calibre of the people posting images of it.

I just finished playing FEAR. Not really a haunting game, but has a lot of spooky shit that crosses similar territory (apparitions, things moving by themselves, skeletons, that kinda shit). Was pretty fun. Missed it when it originally came out, so this was my first playthrough. Solid shooting mechanics, easily abused bullet time, decent AI that likes to flank you and move in coordinated squads, nice textures and lighting that make many modern games look like ass by comparison.

My only problem is the lack of environments, and the fact that there is no final chapter to the game. No final boss fight. You just hit the self-destruct button and run away from some ghosts that pop out of the walls at you at certain per-determined trigger points as you make your escape. You're not even on a timer. Yeah, I guess that's what the expansion is for, but fuck that bullshit. Granted, it comes included with pretty much every modern version of FEAR - but at one time it basically amounted to chopping off the last 15% of your game, calling it DLC, and charging people extra for it. That's not cool. Also, my backlog is getting unmanageable and I don't have the inclination or time to be fucking around with expansions for games. If they can't get it right with the base game, then they don't get a second chance to get it right.

But up to that point, the game is fucking fantastic - so I'm still happy with it in the long run.

Theres the haunting in the mansion, although its not quite the whole focus of the game

Well, you just answered that yourself. I love VTMB, but one mission featuring a haunted hotel does not make it a game about hauntings. However, if OP has never played the game he should immediately rectify that, obviously.

I would argue that is not the only "Haunting" you encounter in the game.

In Downtown you have the Hospital with the Ghost Hunter crew.

In Hollywood the entire Main quest revolves around a Mansion and what happened there.

In Chinatown you have the Mr.Ox quests, where you basically become the Hauntings agent.

And throughout the game you have the Serial Killer Quest.

Luigi's Mansion.

Fatal Frame is all about tons of ghosts in a haunted mansion. The camera may seem silly in concept but it's not hard to get past that.

Ju-On the Grudge on wii is literally titled "Haunted House Simulator". I heard it was awful but if you're desperate you may as well try it.

I've heard The Calling is a better version of the Grudge game.
