About Ghost in the Dark

Escape haunted places in this scary online horror game! Solve puzzles, find necessary parts, and survive before creepy ghosts catch you. Explore the New Wishlie Hospital, the eerie High School, and a cursed apartment with friends in multiplayer mode. Use voice chat to find anomalies, avoid monsters, ghosts, and maniacs, and unlock exits like garage doors and elevators. It runs free on any device, straight from the browser.

How to play

Everything in Ghost in the Dark serves one purpose — run, jump and time your leaps to clear every obstacle in your path. Everything runs off a single input: click on a computer, tap on a touchscreen. The keyboard stays out of it. Every attempt is a clean restart, so shake off a bad run and dive back in.

Tips & tricks

A little planning goes a long way in this one. Look at the platform you are aiming for, not the one under your feet, so you commit to each jump a beat earlier. Let the cursor settle before you commit — the accuracy costs almost no time and saves whole runs.
