The Fear Business
A downloadable demo for Windows, macOS, and Linux
Note: THIS IS A DEMO. Full game available on Steam!
A DIRTY JOB BUT SOMEONE HAS TO DO IT
Whispers of a shadowy satanic cult connected to dozens of missing people have ignited a firestorm of rumors. Some believe the tales are true, while others dismiss them as a hoax. In the wake of a brutal wave of journalist layoffs, Sarah is ready to chase the story no one else dares touch. But as she digs deeper into the horrifying mystery, she’ll soon realize that risking her life for that one shot may be the worst mistake she’s ever made.
Discover the secrets that lie behind the walls of the Solomon manor in this obscure third person survival horror made by the creators of The Night of the Scissors and Cannibal Abduction, inspired by the satanic panic from the 80s and found footage movies.
- Experience the fear of being locked with the deadly Goat Face.
- Find places to hide... Or fight back, if you dare.
- Interview Black Hill's locals and record as much footage as you can in the free view first person mode.
- A huge victorian manor to explore, every room is full of interactions, items to collect, things to record, secrets and puzzles.
- Blow the candles that light the devil shrines for saving your progress, but there's a catch... The manor will become darker every time you do it!
- Cinematic camera angles and authentic VHS glitches.
- Learn about the Architect's secrets and discover an incredible plot twist!
- Contemplate the most horrific creations in an ingame gallery art. Every piece you see was painted by real horror artists!

This game looks great and i want to buy and give you money but I will never understand why you wont release this on itch. i bought both your games here, i dont buy on steam. so you would get money if you also released it here. i also will never understand why my comments keep getting removed. is it so much to ask you release this on Itch alongside steam?
I'm not removing your comments just so you know.
I'm not uploading the full game to itch.io, at least for now, because I'm patching the game and is a pain to maintain two platforms at once. I might consider it in the future once the game is fully patched and I'm happy with it!
Idk why my comments aren't coming though but I apologize for any hostility and appreciate the update. I just love to support small devs like this and I don't purchase through steam.
A really good game that really reminds me of older titles
The game's very solid and I hope to see this both developed and on steam. Keep it up.
