Better check the will again. That's my inheritance.

Look out for the clause about having to stay in a haunted house overnight.

Playing Resident Evil Village, and it's got me thinking. Is there any better setting for horror than a haunted manor? Like, it is the classic for a reason. Predates any other horror locale. It's the uncanny valley of houses. In theory it's a place where people live, which adds personality to it and let's it be rife with tragic personal backstories. But it feels sterile and unused, like a prop waiting to fall apart and surprise you.

I ask this because the factory level fucking sucks.

Maybe you can just find the manor keys in the garbage. You have good luck there with stuff sometimes

I'm pretty sure I'm just before the last boss now, so I think I'm past the low point unless the ending is truly bizarre.

Based on this and Biohazard my impression of RE games is that they get worse fast in the last few hours and then end really suddenly when they feel like things are about to amp up and get better.

Realizing in Biohazard that id finally gotten back to the Baker Estate only for it to be the final boss and nothing else was soul crushing.
