If you are a fan of Waxworks and Elvira, this adventure game may interest you. It feels more 'primitive' because of the technical limitations PCs had twenty years ago, but you'll feel Horrorsoft trademark all over it.
As you can see in the screenshots, the PC version (the game was also released for the Amiga) runs in 16-colour EGA mode, and there's no sound to speak of. But even if it's an old game (1989), it has good design and your instructions can be entered not only by typing them but also by pointing and clicking (there's a list of verbs on the right side).
Basically, your mission consists of stopping all the 'evil people' in your home village. You start off chasing people, but soon you'll be fighting sobrenatural opponents. There are quite a few scares to be had with this game!
As in other Horrorsoft adventures, you'll die often, and in very different ways, so always remember to save!
