Ghost Theory is a first person shooter horror adventure game in which you get to investigate the most haunted places on Earth! In Ghost Theory, you are a gifted paranormal investigator able to catch glimpses of ghosts. Equipped with all the tools modern science can provide, players will use nothing but their skills in stealth and wits to survive. The objective: to explore the most famous real-life haunted places to cleanse them of their evil presence, all the while collecting data and evidence to ultimately solve the eternal mystery of the afterlife.

- Real world locations and cases: Dreadlocks LTD has secured the rights to use several real haunted places, as well as their associated history, such as 30 East Drive, Pontefract, home to the most violent poltergeist in Europe. By drawing inspiration from the very best horror movies and stories, they hope to captivate players curious about the unknown.
