The Gretlow Tapes Build 20308310

The Gretlow Tapes is a short, atmospheric first‑person horror experience that leans heavily into a realistic found‑footage aesthetic. You play as a local university student and amateur photographer in a small Northern English town circa 2000, drawn to the abandoned Gretlow House by rumours of a shadowy woman and a string of disappearances. Armed only with your camera, you explore the manor, collect photographic evidence, and interact with memories of the past in a bid to uncover what really happened - and to survive the night.
What stands out is the game’s mood: tight, oppressive environments, careful sound design, and the grainy, documentary feel of looking through a camera lens. The photo‑based mechanics aren’t just cosmetic - your camera is the primary tool for discovering clues and triggering memories, which helps the found‑footage premise feel meaningful rather than gimmicky. The experience is compact (around 1.5 hours), making it a focused, intense playthrough rather than a long commitment - ideal for anyone who enjoys short, story‑driven scares.
If you like slow‑burn exploration, eerie atmosphere, and investigative horror with a personal, voyeuristic perspective, The Gretlow Tapes delivers an effective, if brief, creepy outing.

- First‑person, found‑footage horror with a realistic camera aesthetic
