About The Haunted Building

Every scene is a foreshadowing.

By unlocking different endings, your expectations will be overturned—twice—and your understanding of the truth will shift in completely unexpected ways.“The Haunted Building: The Locksmith on the First Floor” is a uniquely styled horror adventure set in the public housing block Cheung Wing House.

Because a handful of tenants still refuse to move out, your main duty is to collect their relocation consent forms.However, you soon discover that strange things lurk in every corner.
Each remaining resident behaves in unsettling ways…
And rumors of terrifying spirits wandering the building only make Lee Shing’s investigation even more dangerous.Set against the backdrop of 1990s Hong Kong, the game carries a strong nostalgic charm reminiscent of classic Hong Kong cinema, letting players relive an era filled with atmosphere and tension.

You must find a way—by any means necessary—to convince him to leave, and unravel the mysteries surrounding him.Every choice you make shapes the story and leads to multiple endings.
Some truths require more than one playthrough to uncover.
Whether the tenants live or die, and whether Lee Shing can survive and see through the lies—all depends on you.*The second unit “The Braided-Hair Girl” is currently in development, along with the series prequel “Urban Legend: Takeout.” Stay tuned!

When the game first came out, most of us were disappointed that it was only in the Chinese language when they already stated on the store page that it had English language. The developers promised us, and they delivered! We are finally able to play this wonderful game with English subtitles. The Haunted Building is a visual novel mixed with Point & Click elements.

The housing estate feels authentic and lived-in, from narrow stairwells and dim corridors to modest apartments cluttered with everyday objects. This grounded realism strengthens the horror elements, as the fear emerges not from fantasy environments but from a space that feels plausible and intimate. The architecture’s repetition and confined design enhance the sense of claustrophobia, while flickering lights and distant echoes inject s…
