‘Follia – Dear Father’ Brings Survival Horror to Your University Campus

Published

on

Sure, university isn’t that scary (depending on your courses), but as with any good horror story, it’s the taking of a mundane and turning your expectations on its head. Case in point: Real Game Machine’s upcoming title, Follia – Dear father. Set for release this Fall for PC via Steam, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One, as well as a VR version for HTC Vive and PlayStation VR.

The game casts you as Marcus Pitt, whose only claim to fame is that both of his parents work at a university. It’s at said university where Marcus is searching for said parents, but stumbles into the horrors that have emerged on the university campus.

As he makes his way through the campus, Marcus will have to fight with the small number of items that he’ll find in order to make it out alive and with his sanity intact. Follia emphasizes exploration, with the need to backtrack at certain points (and be rewarded for doing so), as well as collecting the necessary items.

While a bit rough in some spots, the trailer gives off that necessary atmosphere and creepy visuals that, for those who enjoyed Layers of Fear, you’ll feel right at home.

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.
