The solo indie developer behind horror titles like The Backrooms 1998 and The Voidness, Steelkrill Studio, revealed a teaser trailer for its upcoming game, The 18th Attic, set to launch soon on PC via Steam. The trailer introduces us to a terrifying new threat: mannequins that move when unseen, promising a ghost-hunting experience that blends psychological tension with innovative mechanics.
In the game, you wield a camera as both defense and weapon, capturing supernatural phenomena in a haunted attic filled with buried memories. The trailer showcases the game’s “weeping angel”-style mannequins, which freeze under the camera’s gaze but creep closer the moment your blink, turn away, or lower your lens.
When hallucinations intensify, you can pet a virtual cat to reduce stress and regain focus, adding a unique calming element to the horror. Steelkrill Studio prioritizes psychological dread over jump scares and The 18th Attic will continue this tradition, weaving a narrative-driven adventure with a retro-inspired aesthetic, reminiscent of P.T. and Amnesia.
