Shelley's Haunted House
SteamShelley's Haunted House is a 2D Top-Down Survival Horror Game based on the story of the Shelley's house which is a famous haunted location in the US known for the dark spirit of the lady in black. Shelley's house belonged to a rich businessman, Marley, who bought it during the 1920s. His daughter, Mary, was engaged in the devil worshiping and she was called the lady in black or dark witch because of her outfit. She used to perform the various dark rituals in her room on the third floor and she got addicted to it to the point of no return. Gradually, she was taken over by the demon and it was said that she died mysteriously and her body disappeared and nowhere to be found even after thorough investigation by the authorities. It was said that Mary came to realize her mistake of messing with black magic but was too late. The only thing which remained was a letter which was found in a drawer of her room mysteriously disappeared when the authorities came to seize her belongings. Before getting completely overtaken by the devil, she wrote a letter apologizing to her family members, friends and also pleaded for help because she realized in the very end that her life was in danger and she was about to be taken away by the devil. Even now, her spirit is present in the Shelley's house and is often seen standing by the window of the third floor by those passing by the property. It is considered to be one of the most haunted houses in the US and is being checked out by many paranormal enthusiasts from time to time. You play as Joseph, a paranormal enthusiast and you have to investigate the Shelley's house to experience the paranormal activities. Can you help out the spirit of lady in dark and escape the property alive?
