Scary Stories: Grotesque
Inspired by internet ghost stories and urban legends, this short horror visual novel takes you through familiar places—a late-night subway, an empty theater, a foggy mountain road, and a dark bedroom. Encounter inexplicable entities, ominous signs, and horrors that feel disturbingly real.
Horror in everyday life always begins in the most ordinary way.
A late-night subway station. A movie theater with only a single audience member. A mountain road swallowed by dense fog. A bedroom where you lie alone after work. Even the bathroom of an ordinary apartment.
Every story begins in places that feel familiar. Then, without warning, something inexplicable slips into the ordinary.
Scary Stories: Grotesque is a collection of short horror visual novels inspired by internet ghost stories and urban legends.
Some stories begin with something someone else once experienced. Others begin with a single careless mistake. And in most cases, the protagonist never truly discovers what they encountered.
New ghost stories will continue to be added through future updates. More horrors are waiting to invade your everyday life.

Scary Stories: Grotesque gathers the unsettling tales that may have been hiding between those ordinary moments.
Face every kind of horror you can imagine.
From slow-building psychological dread, to nerve-racking jump scares, to the overwhelming despair of cosmic horror.
