This House Has A History

THIS HOUSE HAS A HISTORY A solo journaling horror game about memory, death, and the walls that remember. Every home carries echoes. Each generation leaves something behind — laughter, grief, blood, dust. In This House Has a History, you will uncover the lives (and deaths) that shaped a single haunted home across decades. All you need to play is a deck of cards and your preferred method of journaling. Draw cards to reveal ghosts, objects, and curses. Write entries in reverse chronological order — beginning in the present day and moving backward through tragedy, obsession, and ruin — until you reach the moment the house was cursed. When the final card is drawn, decide whether the curse breaks… or fulfills its purpose. This House Has a History is: • A solo journaling RPG about inheritance, hauntings, and decay • A reverse-timeline mystery told through your writing • Designed for quiet reflection, gothic horror, and the slow burn of memory WHAT YOU NEED: • A standard deck of playing cards (including Jokers) • A notebook, digital document, or voice recorder for your entries PLAYTIME: 30 minutes to several hours GENRE: Horror, Mystery, Folklore, Tragedy The walls speak. The dead listen. And soon, you will too. ---- Version 0.1 This is my second ever itch upload, I'm looking for feedback and suggestions.
