SHIVERS

HALLOWEEN NIGHT.
THREE KIDS.
ONE HOUSE THAT WASN’T ON THE MAP.

Shiver: Book One – The Hollow House opens a serialized choose-your-own-adventure horror told entirely in ASCII. You play as three friends trick-or-treating through a neighborhood that ends where it shouldn’t;  before finding a house that wasn’t there yesterday. Each door inside hides something colder than the wind outside.

Every decision shifts the story. Every path leads somewhere darker. What you carry back from The Hollow House will follow you into the next book.

Features

• Text-only interactive fiction rendered in handcrafted ASCII
• Switch between three characters to alter the story’s outcome
• Persistent choices that carry into future chapters
• Pure atmosphere  nostalgia twisted into nightmare
