Hey everyone! I had ATS member Bigburgh in another thread, pointed out a indie game to try out, that is called Among The Sleep.
The game has you play as a toddler, who is walking around in your dark house, looking for your mom, accompanied by a talking teddy bear.
Sounds cute, right?
Well hold on to your horses! This game get's about as creepy as you can think of!
First, you can download the demo of the game which is FREE and very long! I was really surprised (have not even finished the demo myself yet!). The
game is located on Steam.
In order to get the game, you'll need to create a Steam account if you do not have one already. You can click on the link
here to create an account. It's free.
Here is the link to the store page for the game, where there is a link for the free demo, it's
about 1.1 GB to download.
Here are two Let's Plays I've done of the game, so you can check it out and see what it looks like.......

Oh my gosh, I only made it to 2:56 of the first video! Too creepy for me. lol. I might come back later and try to watch more of the video, but I
dunno, that was freaky and I kept waiting for something really really scary to jump up into the screen. *shudder*
The tension is pretty good in this game! When the jump scare did happen finally.......woah....I about peed my pants!
This game, playing as a toddler.....to me it brings back how you may have felt as a kid: helpless at times.
Many of us may remember a time as a kid in which we were really scared of something, or a scary situation, and I think that helps add to the scary
part of this game.

You lost me at Steam.
2nd
Sorry, there is no other....legal way....to get the game.
I do know some hate Steam, and while i hate having to download games, or logging in to play, I can say that by buying my games from Steam, I've been
able to replace games when I've had HD crashes, or have seen my game disks destroyed by my kids, accidents, etc.
Lol, it brought to mind how I felt last night! Home alone and my dog heard something outside and was snarling and lunging at my backdoor! Terrified! I
really will force myself to watch more of this video, just have to build up my courage, haha! I don't really love computer games though (I'm not
coordinated enough), I'd be much more likely to play it if it were on a gaming console.
Lol...
You got the demo..
Then what ever you do..
Don't watch the Markiplier let's plays.
Spoiler.
The first upload of markiplier is what the demo provides...his next 4 after that is all game.
So don't watch after the first.
I'll be waiting for the Slender expansion pack you said you'll play..
TC.

Woah, creepy indeed! SnF for the sweet recommendation, too :-D
Hey OP, you should check out "P.T" footage for PS4. It's the demo that was just released as a teaser for the new Silent Hill game coming soon. Very
similar to this game... incredibly creepy too. Here's some in-game footage:
