The Séance of Blake Manor – a gothic horror that explores the creepier side of Irish mythology

Developer Spooky Doorway is building a detective mystery full of Victorian spiritualism and pagan traditions, creating a lingering sense of dread that is hard to shake

There are two types of horror - one that shocks you into more inventive ways to hide behind a pillow; and the other that creeps under your skin, quietly prickling the back of your neck and haunting you for weeks. The Seance Of Blake Manor falls into that second camp: an atmospheric take on an 1890s Irish murder mystery.

You play Detective Ward, who has been sent to the titular Blake Manor to investigate the disappearance of Evelyn Deane two nights before a seance is due take place. Mystics from across the globe have gathered at the crumbling mansion to converse with the dead on All Hallows' Eve, but are they really capable of doing what they say they can? And what was that shadowy figure? There's more than one secret to unravel.
