To Whom It May Concern,

This letter is a call for help. A week ago, my ex-husband went to the house of the famous writer Mr Husher, looking for him after failing to find him by phone or other means. He never came back. After three days without any news from him, I pleaded to his manager to go find him. He never came back, either. Now I am here, alone, at the house, trying to find out what happened... Something is watching all of my movements. I'm scared for my life.

I can’t ask you to put your life at risk for us – but you are a journalist, so there is something you can do. Tell our story. 

Do not let us be forgotten.

Song of Horror is a psychological horror adventure that offers a truly dynamic terror experience: its antagonist, the supernatural entity known only as The Presence, is controlled by an advanced AI (Artificial Intelligence) that adapts to your actions and decisions. Experience unbearable fear as this otherworldly being responds to your way of playing and hunts you down in unexpected ways, offering a unique experience to every player and every gameplay where tension builds up naturally instead of coming from scripted sequences.

Choose between a group of 13 unique characters that will help you unravel the mysteries of Song of Horror and try to put an end to its nameless nightmare. Every character is different, and brings their unique point of view to the investigation, allowing them to approach clues and items differently. Their actions and decisions will shape the world: some of them will know more or less of certain aspects of the story; some will be more effective against supernatural manifestations... But all of them can die if the Presence gets to them – and death is permanent in Song of Horror. If one of the characters die, you will have to pick the investigation up from where the deceased left it.

Song of Horror is set for an alarmingly awesome 2020, with the fourth and penultimate chapter launching on January 30, 2020.

The fourth (and biggest) episode of Song of Horror, The Last Concert, continues its nostalgic journey through the classics of the genre. This time, it takes inspiration from Frictional Games’ celebrated modern horror adventure Amnesia: The Dark Descent, bringing players to the most haunted area of the game: St. Cecilia’s Abbey. How many characters will survive this holy place, now tainted by the influence of The Presence?

The intricate design of St. Cecilia’s Abbey, made by real architects, immerse players in a chapter that takes more than 8 hours to finish - for context, three times bigger than the main location of the first episode. In this part of the story, you will:

• Discover what happened to the monks of the macabre St. Cecilia’s Abbey after interpreting the cursed song while you face the diverse manifestations of The Presence, now more powerful than ever!
• Experience a whole new narrative structure: Explore St Cecilia’s Abbey from different starting points depending on which character you choose. Unlock new areas to help other investigators if you happen to fall prey to The Presence.
• Experience more than 8 hours of exploration-based play in the biggest episode to date.
• Say hello to another new character: Meet Ernest Finnegan, a renowned archaeologist past his glory days and a dear friend of Husher. After finding out how dangerous the Abbey is, and haunted by his own guilt for leaving Husher alone, he is now looking to help his close acquaintance to survive his current predicament.
• Returning characters will join the adventure depending on who you played with and who survived in previous chapters!

"We’re in the final stretch, and Episode 4 ramps the tension up somewhat - just as you might expect,” offers Carlos Grupeli, founder of Protocol Games, the studio behind Song of Horror. “It’s an emotional time for the studio. After two cracks at Kickstarter and a fair few more humps in the road along the way, everything is coming together. There’s still so much more to come, too. We have the fifth and final episode coming in just a couple of months, and then PlayStation 4 and Xbox One gamers can take on the entire game in one run when it hits console later in the year. It’s going to be a big year. ”

The first episode of Song of Horror can be picked up on Steam today for $7.99/€7.99/£6.99, while the second and third and fourth can either be purchased individually for $7.99/€7.99/£6.99, or as part of the Season Pass that will also unlock the final episode at launch for $21.99/€21.99/£18.99.

Every episode will offer new, unpredictable spooky situations that will scare players. The first episode will be located at the scary Husher mansion. But for the second one we will travel to at a haunted building with a particularly horrifying antique shop. Do you fondly remember your school days? That's about to change when the third chapters brings you to a cursed college building. An abandoned abbey, surrounded by a deadly halo after a creepy concert, is the location of the fourth chapter but the one that really gets me is that mental institution where you will face the ultimate challenge.
