Screamers

[Edge]

Are there any "screamers" in the game? Or can the ghosts just show up without making any loud noises? asking as a whimp that i am lol

Currently there are no 'screams' but there are lots of random files like breathing or words or grudge noises. Ghosts can appear sometimes without noise and if you're looking in their direction (even if invisible) you'll hear your heart beat. They can set off phones, pianos, play with doors and lights and shut of the breaker. Sometimes they throw things or knock them over.

There are no actual jumpscares in the game. All of the spookiness is from creepy atmosphere and tension from the ghost as you hunt for evidence to see what it is.

i wouldn't say there's no jumpscares. hearing a ghost suddenly breath in your ear or a door slam in your face can be very startling.

I still think the banshee should scream

I'd die if she did ;-; enjoying the game as much as i can for being a whimp but it there were actually jumpscares with sounds i'd probably die of hearattack

agree. it's already plenty scary so i hope they don't ruin it by adding cheap heart attack inducers.

A jumpscare is literally a scare meant to be loud and in your face. It's a cheap way to scare people. The fact that happened was just coincidence of where you happened to be in terms of where the ghost was xD

They can "scream" but it'd come off more of a "WHUUUSHHH!" kind of sound, up close to your ear.

They also can make idle noises like "eehhhh...." like a zombie would at times.

There's also been reports of ghosts 'singing' or 'humming' melodically out of the blue.

I have heard the child with the mouth for a face and the woman with the sewn-up mouth both sing/hum a lullaby when they decide to show themselves. I will say that it is creepy af and that I have never noped out of a room so fast.

+1 for Banshee doing what a Banshee should do

I think it's the freedom to go wherever in the house and explore that makes you jump when you finally see it.

But there are minor jump scares, like when the ghost appears in your face in VR for a split second and then disappears. Or whispers in your ear.

After some playthroughs this game isn't scary. I mean, the ghost was spawning directly behind me with a loud grudge sound. I turn around and was saying :"*his name* you a s shole, wanna fight?".

Most of times I make fun of the ghosts. Man, I wish that future updates will make the game way scarier and harder.

Honestly? I find those far scarier than just a loud scream. Especially if you are playing with quality headset. The light flicks out and it sounds like somebody is right at your ear? That is more frightful than some random scream because it gives a sense of proximity. If it sounds right on top of you? It probably is.

The death rattle is also very creepy because you hear it, you know the ghost is there, but if it hasn't manifested, you don't know where it is.

The game really isn't scary honestly, at least 99% of the time.
