A Small Horror game which has been made as a part of a project in Uni. 

Story

The story takes place hundreds of years ago, in medieval Europe, around 900 after Christ. In a time in which illnesses spread faster than anytime the rumors about witchery and ghosts take place. Citizens are scared to leave their houses and talk about inhuman mythical creatures crossing the streets. People are turning insane due to ignorance and not knowing.

A young man was born in a village in a country known as France today. His job is to kill lifeless souls and spirits and ban them back to the underworld. At least this is what citizens believe. In reality, the young man has never met a ghost before and makes up the stories to gain the trust of the people of him being a reliever of their problems and needs.

His actions turned out to be successful, the people in the village trusted him and even tho he claims he had abilities to see ghosts, he didn't get hung by the other villagers due to his enormous influence in their actions as well as the villagers seeing him as a leader of the free world, helping them out in their needs.

One evening though, our character received a letter from a person in need of his village who is concerned that mysterious activity taking place in the old slaughterhouse. Apparently, an old spirit hunts in that slaughterhouse turning the animals inside into restless, rabies-driven monsters. Ungeared, the man plans to visit the slaughterhouse on the same night and see what is going on there. One of the villagers followed him to the slaughterhouse to see what is going on in there and might be a helpful hand within these rooms.

Yet, as soon as he enters the walls, the door behind him closes and can't be opened again.

The villager, who was still standing outside, got excluded outside because of the rapid closing of the door. The door is locked and the villager shouts useful information throughout the door. The main character stands in the main hall and weird noises begin to fill the house. He gets told he needs 5 keys to flee out of the walls. Moreover, there are some useful tools in some crates in the slaughterhouse. What he does not know is that he is not alone and whatever is inside there with him is waiting for his arrival.

Setting

Nothing combines the place of death and industry as much as a slaughterhouse. It’s such an unusual place that even workers feel not great working there. (Nagesh, 2020)

Now, take all electronics and newly modern tools away and replace them with muskets and torches to create an atmosphere in a late medieval slaughterhouse.
