Comment

"Screaming screaming! Nightmares are my dreaming."

  • Spooky, by Ghostseye

Inspiration

We were inspired by slenderman, various indie games, and Oli's 20 second coursework clutch.

What it does

You are a paranormal investigator, investigating the disappearance of Oliver Charles right before his coursework deadline. Rumour has it, his house has a tragic, troubled history, and ghosts still linger...

Luckily, you're equipped with a Paranormal Camera which can show you visions from beyond the pale. It's even so paranormal, that it crosses into the real world...

Once you take a photo, check out the result on your receipt printer. I'm sure there won't be anything out of the ordinary... right?
