‘Alone In the Dark’: SCP Archives Podcast Ventures Into Derceto Manor

Published

on

Bloody FM‘s SCP Archives is proud to present their new episode inspired by classic survival game Alone in the Dark, in honor of the game’s reboot launching today!

In Pieces Interactive and THQ Nordic’s highly anticipated re-imagining of the classic survival game, Emily Hartwood (Jodie Comer) and Edward Carnby (David Harbor) venture to Derceto Manor, a mental institution, to investigate the disappearance of Emily’s uncle, Jeremy Hartwood. Inspired by the haunting Derceto Manor and its sordid history, this week’s episode of SCP Archives imagined what an early 1920s investigation into the manor might uncover…

First released in 1992, Alone in the Dark set the standard for modern survival games. Its engaging puzzles, survival-horror combat, and inventory management inspired games like Resident Evil and Silent Hill. The modern re-imagining shares much of its DNA with the original Alone in the Dark, but boasts stunning graphics, new gameplay, and a deep physiological story created by Mikael Hedberg, the writer behind iconic horror games SOMA and Amnesia: The Dark Descent. Joining Hedberg and the team at Pieces Interactive is Guy Davis, monster designer and legendary Guillermo del Toro collaborator, and Doom Jazz legend Jason Köhnen.

The new Alone in the Dark is available now on PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
