Indie developer Friday Sundae has released the demo for “There Are No Ghosts at the Grand,” now live on Steam. This marks the debut of this hotly anticipated genre-bending horror, musical, mystery game, following its breakout appearance at the Xbox Showcase in June.
The demo gives players a hands-on preview of this unique genre, mash-up, blending renovation sim, comedy, horror, mysteries, and music!
In “There are No Ghosts at the Grand,” players will inherit a crumbling English hotel and restore it by day, while battling ghosts by night. With a sardonic cat, a talking power tool, and a twisting supernatural plot, in a unique musical mystery narrative adventure.
From spooky ska to wartime jazz to skater punk, each mysterious character you meet has their own story and song, waiting to be uncovered.
But when night falls, your talking power tools transform into weapons against the supernatural. Unleash the vacuum on vengeful spirits, expose invisible assailants with the paint sprayer, or subdue slithering spooks with a well-aimed bookcase to the face using the furniture cannon.
As players explore, renovate, and restore, they’ll uncover Lovecraftian mysteries, and with each passing day, a creeping horror tightens its grip.
Launching in 2026, the full game will be available on Xbox Series X|S, PC, and Xbox Game Pass on day one. Additional platforms will be announced later.
