<\/strong>An atmospheric folk-horror adventure combines colonial guilt, spiritualism and supernatural chills in a tale of secrets and seances on Ireland\u2019s haunted west coast<\/p>\n

A remote manor house on the west coast of Ireland, an eccentric cast of misfits and ne\u2019er-do-wells, a dapper investigator with secrets of his own. The S\u00e9ance of Blake Manor sounds like the stuff of cosy Sunday evening gaming. Thankfully, this folk-horror drama has much more to offer than a bit of fun for Agatha Christie fans.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s October 1897, and you play as private investigator Declan Ward, sent to the aforementioned manor \u2013 now a grand hotel \u2013 to discover the whereabouts of one of its guests, Evelyn Deane, who has gone missing in mysterious circumstances. What you discover is a gothic mansion filled with eccentrics: from a psychic researcher wielding a spirit camera to a vodouist oungan and a Brazilian woman tracing her family roots. They are here to attend a grand seance that will take place on All Hallow\u2019s Eve, when the phantasmagoric barrier between the worlds of the living and the dead is at its thinnest. But as you discover while you wander the ornate rooms and meticulously planned gardens via first-person viewpoint, each participant has a secret \u2013 some deadly, some tragic \u2013 and many know more about young Miss Deane than they\u2019re letting on.<\/p>\n
