Story

Alan Goldberg is a frustrated slasher movie screenwriter in the Hollywood of 1985 who feels his career is at a standstill, but his luck is about to change: Helen Westmore, an eccentric millionaire, will grant him anything he could wish for if he is able to find genius horror director Edward Keller's last, unpublished work, which is said to be the scariest film of all time.

Alan will find his way amongst B-films production companies, VFX workshops, religious cults, and a small haunted town called Serena, the dark reputation of which began when Keller was last seen there.

The art is amazing. Really captures the atmosphere in each scene, from bright sunshine to gritty diner to nighttime creepy rain and evil subterranean settings. The detail (reflections, lighting, etc.) is superb and not often seen in this kind of artworks.

Great game. Absolutely loved it and I don't even like horrors :)

Awesome game! I bought it and left a review on Steam.

Brilliant game! Hope to see more point & click games from you! A+++

Does it include the portrait art book and bso free as in steam?

(+1)

Yes, it's included in the game's folder. I forgot to mention it in the description.

Will you put the game on GOG?

(+1)

Sadly not. They rejected it.

(+1)

They really turned him down! What is happening to GOG! :(

(+1)

GOG is not the same anymore...going/rolling down the mountain since years

Yeah, I'm finding myself shopping at itch a lot more the past year or so. Somehow GOG continually approves garbage, and genuinely good games get rejected quite often. I don't understand their thinking, but hopefully more people will discover itch.

i really liked it :) i  thought it would be more horror 

(+1)

Thanks! It will be more horror in the full game.

Hi, I think I'm at the wrong place here, but I hope I reached you nevertheless.  You are very difficult to find your address on internet. 

A pretty long time ago I discovered by chance Billy Masters and I wrote a walkthrough for this game  and a very short review-like commentary.  I liked the game!!!! I'm a writer for www.adventurespel.nl. This is a site existing for 30-40 years already. No hidden object games or RPG's , adventures only.  I started the demo of 'An English Haunting'. A short announcement was menstioned on this site. 

I hope you will send me a review key for your latest game. I would love to write  the review on An English Haunting, I did like the beginning already and I would like to continue the game. and inform our readers.

I hope you will send me a key , It would be most appreciated!

Thanks in advance and lots of success with the haunting,

Really fun and well written adventure game. I can't wait to see more of it. Keep up the great work! 

Thanks for your words and for the video!

Looks great, but one of your screen shots spoils that the cult members have committed suicide. Can't wait to buy the full game! It has a Thimbleweed Park vibe.

Thank you very much! The screenshot of the cult may or may not be a spoiler!

Really cool demo, great art but I already knew that. What I didn't know was how unlikable Alan is. Someone needs to talk to him & help him change the perspective on life & people. :)

(+1)

Thanks for your words, Cryptic! Alan changes for the better. I promise!

(+1)

That's good to hear, I want him to not be bitter his whole life. :)

This looks amazing! Do you have any plans to bring it to linux? 

(+1)

Thank you! There are no plans for a linux version. Sorry.

I was able to make a GNU/Linux version of this game since it runs on the cross platform and open source AGS engine. Would you be interested in it? I'll send the Linux version to you for free.
