Thanks a lot for making a video about this game! I created music for it, so I'm glad it's gaining more recognition. Love to you all
Omg good job!!!
Fantastic work! Really nailed it!
@@theawooos3793 Thanks bruv
@@FarewellApollo Thank you sir
You did an amazing job!
Dean here,
🙏🙏🙏Thx for the multiple kind compliments! How is it that I f'n knew about the scares and I still frickin jumped. SMH. Great video ❤
You were awesome
@@archangelvalentine Thank you 🙏 I appreciate that a lot. The creator was great and the opportunity was awesome. As a freelance VA, it was an easy game to want to be involved in.
Amazing job, thank you for the wonderful experience!
Your voice acting is phenomenal! It really helped set the mood and really added to the story and jump scares
Phenomenal job! If I may, you sound kinda like Yuri Lowenthal (meant as a compliment), I thought it might've been him before seeing your comment.
Ghost: "He's in the hall"
Gabby: *immediately walks into the hall and dies*
The voice acting was really good, but also shoutout to the sound designer. They did great work on the mix. I find in these kinds of games, the voices are really hard to hear, either because of bad mixing, or because the background music cuts in and you can't hear the voices anymore. I appreciate that I could clearly hear what they were saying at every point in this.
"I have a spine but no bones. I have no heartbeat, yet I hold life's hook." What am I?
You're a book. It even rhymes.
To know that it is all one person, it is amazing ;)
Really? I personally didn't think much of the voice acting at all. You could tell it was DIY
@@irubberyouglueonethousand5384 To be fair, the person is portraying an urbex TH-camr. "DIY" is kind of how I would expect it to sound.
They didn't do anything outrageous or ham it up. It's not Star quality voice acting, but it was pretty good for an amateur.
the guy who created the music’s comment being right above yours makes this comment even better haha what a coincidence 🤣🫶🏻❤️
Personally, I would guess that Ending #2 probably becomes available when he gets that urgent personal phone call upstairs. When your character says "Yes, I'll do it as soon as I get back to the car", you can probably go back to the car to take care of his real life responsibilities. I'd put a good ending there if I was designing the game.
No that's the first ending actually I got that correct
Mannequins = check. Creepy story = check. Needlessly exploring an abandoned place = check.
This game has everything!
Don't forget creepy dolls and children laughing!
It's not needless, it's got content! Also, from experience, urbex can just be really fun. You find super interesting stuff, and occasionally stuff that lets you know you need to GTFO right this second.
One time my friend and I found cages...in the most secluded part of an abandoned run down step mall that was set to be demolished. Cages that were way too big for animals. There was also a poster with a list of things to do "after your cargo is picked up" and, most unsettling of all, a Coleman lantern that was warm. We dipped immediately without touching anything or taking pictures and called the police. When they called us back later that same day they told us they didn't find anything and accused us of wasting their time.
My state is a thoroughfare for human trafficking because we have a port city, but one of the smallest ones in the country, and this happened in our capital city where two interstates meet so that's our working theory and, if so, they either moved everything extremely quickly or the cops are on the take, but if we hadn't left I'm certain something bad would have happened to us.
Haunted houses in real life are far less interesting
I really like it when haunted houses start becoming more and more nightmarish, more unreal and twisted, like the house itself has fallen outside of quotidian life and fallen into it's own awful abyss, likely due to the horror of what's transpired there. This game has such an artful build-up, going from making the home feel ineffably wrong, and eventually progressing into unwholesome madness. Awesome find Gab!
learned a new word, thanks
@@avopeac6300 lmao SAME I had to immediately look it up
@@avopeac6300 Quotidian. Never heard of it before, either.
Reason why Gabs is my favorite youtuber: "I don't like that that open door cannot be opened any further. Like whats that doors deal."
ikr? Like, the door was 41% open, what’s up with that?
My grandpa used to say that quote all the time. Believe nothing of what you hear and only half of what you see. You have no idea how nice it was to see that phrase somewhere randomly. I miss him terribly. It's been over 20 years since we lost him, but he's still such a big part of my everyday life. That made me smile.
My condolences! He sounds like such a wise man 🩷

@ninipanini11 the smartest person I ever knew. He really encouraged learning something new every day
Explorers are pretty clear on the "you don't steal" because it could belong to squatter/homeless starting fights as well as stealing would make it a larger crime if police show up besides simply trespassing.
Heavy on the first part! We never stole, but other groups did, and sometimes we got in trouble for that. Ever had an angry squatter man running at you with an axe? -20/10 don't recommend. Leave stuff where you found it and just explore
I love the attention to detail. His voice stops echoing whenever he moves from the hallways into a smaller room.
35:14 this moment had such good timing, when gab says *”poltergeist!”* and the jumpscare triggered it’s like she agitated the ghost/demon by saying that!
By the middle of the maze I was SO TENSE, I was on the verge of throwing tea everywhere at the slightest jump. Phenomenal sound design.
One person in two months?! This is brilliant! Sound design, atmosphere, voice acting, everything!!
something is so human about giving some games a pass for their shortcomings because they’re made by one person… i think that’s really nice and cute
"Of course he was!" followed by the most exasperated groans exactly describes my feelings whenever dolls of any kind is introduced in horror 😂
For those wondering, Chlorpromazine is an antipsychotic that deals with schizophrenia, mania, and psychosis.
Thanks!
I love how when it tells her to get out of the house, she stays to look at the creepy tv first.
5:37 *MattPat kicks in the door with a cease and desist in one hand and a printed screenshot of his appearance in the FNAF movie in the other hand*
He has been summoned
Also that "Afton?" at 1:48
My theory is the brother saw his sister suffering when he snuck in to let her out, and decided to smother her to free her from her torment. And then, yeah, spooky ooky possession things happened.
This one definitely had a few good jump scares in it!! They need someone to comb through for typos and spelling stuff, but besides that it's solid. Love the creepy almost VHS film camera quality to it.
My theory is there's some kind of demon/ghost presence there that messed with the girl first, and she killed herself to get away from it, but it just targeted her family after that. She feels guilty over the whole thing, and is trying to help anyone else who ends up trapped in the house and targeted by the creature/demon.
I'm about 5 minutes in and thinking, this is really a *lot* of typos, like one every 2 or 3 seconds.
@@howard2liuthank goodness I’m not the only one bothered by the typos. Even one typo is enough to take me out of the story, but seeing so many in such a short amount of time was kinda shocking. Spelling/typos are one of the easiest things to correct by yourself, or to have a friend kindly beta-read for you before you publish. That’s why - for me personally - it’s the one type of error in games (and other projects) that I struggle to not feel a bit critical about. (Edit: I should clarify the rest of the game seems pretty great.)
23:55 First off, Ev's NoFace impression from Spirited Away is on point and second, I am dying laughing at the idea of taking the lock off the door to put the code in. Put it BACK on the door and then unlocking it to take it off again to open the door. I thought the animation would lean down to the lock but instead it takes the lock off the door to bring the lock itself into view to enter the combination. That's amazing hahaha.
i'm dead over the "jello? jesus? como esta?" 😂😂😂😂
first off, good fucking god that sound design and voice acting is top notch like i'm SO glad i decided to wait and watch this in the morning lol. second, the developer (& VAs, mixers, everyone else who worked on this game) definitely have the talent and skill to make more games! despite not being that long of a game, it was able to tell the story well w/o it being rushed! the story is interesting and the game looks great + i like that the player actually reacts to these things (bc it makes sense if hes vlogging), hopefully we'll get to see more from them!
I absolutely love how when the character said theory both your reaction and my reaction to say a game theory in matpats voice xD adorable.
I'm trying to put into words why this game feels really realistic and actually really got to me.
I think it's a lot of little details adding up. First up, the sound design is really good in my opinion (the squeaking doors and the damn gate, the rustling of movement and paper, his DAMN BREATHING IS SO REALISTIC it freaks me out), but same goes for the environment, the lighting, the voice acting and all those those things coming together.
It's the way the light from the flashlight looks like the actual light from a flashlight, down to how it sways with the camera motion. I don't quite know how to describe it, but it just felt so real watching it. Usually it's easy to tell it's a game because of choppy camera movement when the player looks around, but here it looks like he's actually holding a camera and a flashlight. If you told me this was an old recording it'd take me a minute or two to make sure it wasn't.
If this game was made by a small studio it'd already be a really solid game. The fact that it was made by about 1-3 people is truly amazing.
Great job!
that phone call jump scared the absolute soul from my body. holy SMOKES
I bet one of the endings was when you were hiding in the locker from the monster. You had a mic then too, but you instinctively stayed quiet. (I did too!) Great video, thank you for all your hard work.
my guess is going back to the house after that one. Like 'he' was in the hallway, but then you hide and wait for it to pass, then you can reenter
I was actually spooked during that whole game! Holy cow!!!! Props to the dev! WOW WOW WOW! So well done!
From Dr. Google: "Chlorpromazine is a medication used to manage and treat schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and acute psychosis. It is a member of the typical antipsychotics or neuroleptic medication category, also known as first-generation antipsychotics."
Super spooky, oh my god. The atmosphere in this game was incredible, and they did a LOT with what they had to work with when it comes to the visual stuff. The game looked phenomenal for being a one-person dev team.
37:05 was such a good scared! Not the brightest idea to embroider while watching this - poked myself pretty good :D
i knitted while watching this!!
Does anyone else think of Metallica when Gabs says "Darkness!" Lol my brain goes "imprisoning me, all that I see, absolute horror!" Anyway, love the game, love seeing new horror content, thanks Gabs!!
Absolutely lol, was singing that in my head!
The noise Gab makes in response to the ventriloquist's doll was so relatable. They're so high on the creepy scale.
Ready to sit down with a cup of coffee and watch Gabs! So relaxing!
same here only with a cup of tea if I have coffee I would be wired HAHA
@@pickmixgamerIf you enjoy coffee at all but get all wired, have you ever tried decaf?
Cup of coffee ✔️
Cat on lap ✔️
Gab video ✔️
I just like to appreciate the restraint the people behind this game had to not introduce a twitchy ghost that stalks you for the entire game, I am so tired of that. Instead, they allowed the atmosphere and subtle changes to carry the scares instead of having the classic pt ripoff jumpscare death that gets super tired after the first time.
2:34 I got jump scared by a falling leaf as you were headed towards the car.
You find so many games like this, you are a superstar game finder! :)
I watched closely, You got ending 3, when the doll got you, ending 1 when you just left through the front door, then In the over grown area, you got whacked by the doll again, so ending 3 again, then ending 5 twice, when you got back into the truck!
That's the same house as in The Stalked. Only in that game there weren't any extra rooms upstairs, the door to the kitchen lead outside, and the kitchen was next to the dining room.
23:38 That's how you spell draught when referring to wind / air entering a room. It's different to draft, different meaning.
Taking the combination lock off the door, to get it off the door, cracked me up 😆
Dear Gab's Editor
Why
Why must you zoom in on the dark hallway 😭
Sincerely,
Distressed viewer
Hey Gab there's a game I saw that i think you'll like it's called "Amber Journey's beyond" it's an older game but its very much like Dark Fall ghost vigil and another game called " At dead of night" I thought I'd recommend
23:52 this just made me laugh so hard, the idea of taking the lock off of the door handle so you can get a better look at it while you try to put the code in to unlock it
Perfect for the Chilly weather today!! Stay inside snuggle up with a soft blanket and a hot cup of tea!! Thank you Gab!
👏👍❤️
Found this on steam CrazeWay said: get the 4th ending, after you get the key from the hand in the bloody bathtub, do not go use it on the door to the basement. Instead, go back upstairs to Cody's room. Here you will find a note written in blood. Take the note to the candle in Diane's old room and burn it, this will, from my understanding, purge the entity in the doll. Afterwards you simply leave the house through the front door and you will get Ending 4.
The sounds in this game were really nice. The rain on the windshield. The walking on the old wood floor.
Always excited for new videos! We never need to wait long! I thought the guy at the beginning sounded like MatPat and then you hit ‘em with the “…a Game Theory!!” Perfect haha
“Do i need to be quiet??” *squeals
•Immediately dies•
😭😭 why you gotta scare me like that 😭
***Notices doll is gone, reads note*** "..........Like she's become our dirty little secret" ***puts note away*** "so... we haven't found the doll yet..." lolololololol
That death jumpscare at around 37min got me so bad i almost threw my phone lmao 😅
I just want to say thanks for being awesome! Mr. BB as well.
Your channel has made its way into my comfort shows 😂
My girl doesn't understand how I can binge watch someone else play low budget Japanese horror games(among others). I'm happy I can watch a fellow gal with ADHD and anxiety, kick ass and enjoy success.
💗
Found you because of Stardew.. and was happy to see you playing this. I can't play these kind of games so nice when I can watch someone lol. Keep up the great work !!
I love the scary games, you’re honestly kind of my comfort streamer. You’re always pretty chill and the games you play are amazing.
I think it’s like a black phone situation where the daughter came back as a vengeful ghost and killed other people prior like, the girl who was said to have drowned during that radio segment. They’re or at least she is helping guide you out. I think there could have been some other unrelated stuff that might have been going on at the house. It was a lot to unpack.
For the riddle at 41:24 is the answer a book?
In case you don't wanna go and find it the riddle is:
"I have a spine, but no bones. I have no heartbeat, but I hold life's hook."
Wow I love the entrance of the abandoned house looks exactly like the orphanage from rule of rose
I love crocheting watching these because when I get scared I can hold up the coaster I’m working on over my face and peak over it hehe
35:23 *Door moves down hallway*
Me: “No thanks, that’s too much exercise.”
As it turns out you DIDN't have the earphones in the wrong ears for this playthrough, nice LMAO.
A ghost game done very well. ❤ Felt very House Beneviento but with more focus on atmosphere.
I don't get jump scared easily, but the first ending #3 got me.
Watching this at 4am alone…nuh uh. This was phenomenal- in that I haven’t had a game give me literal, constant, full body chills in a VERY long time. Awesome game!
*ps- dolls are evil and horrifying and I’ll die on that hill
Watching at 3:19am myself right now and double screening / scrolling through comments to refrain from jumping.
*also I agree dolls and mannequins are terrifying
@@Omen-gv4hbDefinitely
@@Omen-gv4hbEspecially if those dolls are from Japan or The Victorian Period.
Baby and I are settled and ready to watch! ❤
Uuhhhhmmm…
That radio may have stopped me in my tracks a little lol
Not everyday you hear your name on the radio and that you are missing.
I'm confused about the story. What happened to the daughter? It's not clear if she was sick or possessed, if she died by suicide or homicide, and if the bodies in the basement were her family members or the kids who bullied her. The "..." ending didn't explain much.
Just came home from work sick, ready to watch and nap to this 😆
Deeply glad that I'm not the only one who was like, "Why hasn't all this cool stuff been stolen?!" Excellent game design, though. I'm impressed somebody made this so fast!
Wow I was not expecting to love this game so much it was super well done! Kudos to the dev for sure
you testing if something would happen if you yelled had me dying 🤣🤣
The "JESUS" caught me off guard as an spaniard hasdhashdahs love you Gabe!
I haven’t been this genuinely scared for a while! Amazing game !!
This game made me so tense. I accidentally hit myself in the face gasping. And my wife started transcribing and posting all the silly noises I made while watching on her Tumblr. A+ game and vid, team! Wow!
This was a good game. It had great atmosphere, some good jump scares, and looked great; I loved it.
The ball coming down the stairs at 28:26 has to be a reference to the film called “the changeling” directed by Peter Medak. Great horror ghost movie
gabs please please PLEASE play " the cosmic wheel of sisterhood" its a choose your own adventure game with cute art, friendship, witchcraft, tomfoolery, revenge, power, and you get to create your own tarot cards!
I've binged every Seán video and felt it was time to binge the wonderful woman he always highly speaks of. And I see why! You're so much fun to watch!!! Idk how y'all do it. I love everything horror but my anxiety can't handle making the decisions.
My dog's name is Remy! When you said "please feed Remy" I was like "she doesn't eat for another hour"
this game would be so amazing in VR. like everything would be super dark unless you hold up a camera and look through the screen.
46:04 not gab missing a whole grown ass man walking by 😂
Lmao am I blind? I didn't see him either after seeing this comment and I was looking
@@jessicabraud3307 yeah it's in the far back. He moves to the left
i got motion sick in the first 10 minutes but what i could watch was amazing!
I found that Chlorpromazine is a medication used to manage and treat schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and acute psychosis. It is also used for controlling nausea, vomiting and other things. I wonder if it’s for Diane. 11:18
From the very beginning the house gave me House Of Leaves vibes. The inside look so much bigger than the outside
I love Gabby’s content, I get to see these awesome horror games that I’m to scared to play lol
I wonder if Evelyn watches Ghost Adventures I feel like she'd get a kick out of it 😊❤
Voice acting was great and so are the visuals, but that light bloom is a bit too much on the flashlight/camera light.
Right as i was looking for something to watch! Thank you!
anybody else peep the fact that this is the same layout in the mansion on Stalked?
34:18 My favorite Gab quote "JEEEEEEESUSSSSSS"
Hey Gab. Will you be playing the free Dredge DLC for Dave the Diver? Seems like the perfect game collab for you.
BB is a professional Suburban Explorer.
I love how many spooky games are based in WA/the PNW.
What a well-crafted spooky game, esp for being made by mostly one person in two months!
16:50 _creeped-out Gab noises_ 24:54 Alright, Gordon Freeman time, let's GO!
This (15:24) is basically Zelda from Stephen King’s Pet Sematary.Much like King’s first novel, Carrie, I read the 1983 book after seeing the 1989 film.
Carrie and Pet Sematary are two of my favorite Stephen King stories!
Edit: Holy shit (23:12 - 23:19)!! *This literally IS Pet Sematary!!*
step aside, responsibilities. theres a gab upload
48:25 nearly gave me a heart attack lmao jesus
I think Diane may be possessed, the screamings, the bones changed, and she was sick, but one day doctor came to check her, she was not sick anymore and gave her parents the cold look, so all of those points to being possessed by a demon or evil spirit. I think the day Cody opened the door and let Diane go, the demon inside Demon probably killed Diane's body and possessed Cody, did the same to him, then to their parents.
