Ghost Hunt in Cambridge, MA
The city feels different tonight—heavy, restless, alive with shadows. 👻 Strange sightings stir whispers of ghosts wandering the streets, and an ancient order has called on you to join the hunt.
Armed with a mysterious device that detects the supernatural, you must uncover the truth behind ten wandering spirits. Some are harmless, lost between worlds… one hides a dark purpose, plotting to unleash terror on the living. 💀
Track them down, face their riddles, and uncover their secrets before the evil ghost claims the city for its own. 🕷️
