Dire Decisions Game Books

Welcome to The House of Torment

​Set deep within the back hills of Maine lies the ancient and crumbling mansion of "TraumenTur". It's despised and whispered to be a source of a malignant evil. Death has knocked upon its door and misfortune has cast its dark shadow. The choice has been made and TraumenTur calls for you.

The police have "chosen" you to investigate and to retrieve a priceless heirloom. They claim to be overworked and understaffed but you can tell. They are afraid.

Before the night is over, either the vaulted book, or the truth will be exposed. If you fail misfortune will choose again.

Enter The House of Torment.

The 40 Second Advertisment

This was my first foray into video editing ever. The Idea was a quick miniature commercial timed to  60 seconds or less. This was to keep it short, to the point and to help hide my limitations. It ended up way shorter than I planned.

A History of Inspiration

The House of Torment was begun as a hobby writing project in 2014. It’s inspiration was formulated sometime in 1992 after I had the chance to play the amazing video game “Alone in the Dark”. For years I attempted to make various tributes to the game and each time I failed abysmally. A few years ago after playing one of the “Lone Wolf” game books the gears of logic clicked and I began. What started as a tribute mutated into something darker and sinister. Or perhaps a campy Gothic Hammer Film style production. Either Way I hope you enjoy it.
