That ‘Haunted House’ Reboot Looks Sufficiently Eerie

Published

A few weeks ago, Atari announced their plans to reimagine Haunted House and Alone in the Dark, two classic horror series that first released in 1982 and 1992, respectively. From what little we’ve seen of it so far, Alone in the Dark: Illumination already looks somewhat promising. It’s also a series that I’m very familiar with, so I have an idea of what kind of experience it will offer, even though co-op seems to be the primary focus this time around.

Haunted House is another story entirely. The original game released six years before I was born and despite my love for horror games both new and old, I never got around to playing it. All I know about the game is it was one of the first survival horror games.

I have no idea what to expect from Haunted House: Cryptic Graves, but this trailer does a decent job of not really helping me understand it any better.

Haunted House: Cryptic Graves hits PC this fall.

Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.

The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.

Visit the site to join the mysterious creatures that lurk in the Irish forest as you observe a shelter. From the time the sun sets at 7:30 PM until it rises at 5:55 AM, four strangers played by Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouere can be seen trapped inside.

You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.

There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…

The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
