Gameplay teaser from Midnight Special.

Inspired by the cult-classic Clock Tower series, Midnight Special revives the golden age of 90s horror gaming, blending it with the visceral aesthetics of Italian Giallo cinema, the dread-filled tempo of classic slasher films, and the surreal undertones of 70s and 80s sci-fi horror. Players will navigate a tense and twisting narrative through atmospheric environments, solve puzzles under pressure, and evade a relentless killer whose identity is as mysterious as their methods are brutal.
Scared Stupid Inc., in collaboration with publisher Yahaha Games, is thrilled to announce the upcoming release of Midnight Special , a chilling point-and-click survival horror game launching May 8, 2025 on Steam.

Inspired by the cult-classic Clock Tower series, Midnight Special revives the golden age of 90s horror gaming, blending it with the visceral aesthetics of Italian Giallo cinema, the dread-filled tempo of classic slasher films, and the surreal undertones of 70s and 80s sci-fi horror. Players will navigate a tense and twisting narrative through atmospheric environments, solve puzzles under pressure, and evade a relentless killer whose identity is as mysterious as their methods are brutal.

With stylized violence, psychological dread, and pixel-perfect panic, Midnight Special pays homage to horror's past while carving out its own terrifying future. You play as Sarah, a babysitter hired to care for the twins - Jon and Ellie - at the eerie Boyd Manor. A late-night power outage triggers a series of supernatural events: mysterious phonecalls, unpleasant odors seeping up from the floorboards, objects moving on their own, and a giant plastic dinosaur toy that seems alive.

As the line between reality and hallucination blurs, you must solve puzzles through point-and-click exploration, evade lethal pursuits, and uncover the dark truth behind the manor.
