The witching hour may have passed, but there are plenty of hauntings left to be experienced, like today's release of Relics: Dark Hours exclusively at Big Fish Games.

A joint production from Subdued Games and Bryan Wiegele, creator of Inherent Evil and the Delaware St. John series, Relics tells the tale of Matthew Hunter, a young man who can see ghosts. After his father's death, Matthew discovered that his grandfather once stole a collection of cursed artifacts that initially bring prosperity, but then sickness and death to all who possess them. His father compounded the problem by selling the items, and now Matthew is determined to track down all of the artifacts and destroy them.

In Dark Hours, Matthew fakes a nighttime custodial position at Ridgecrest High, a middle-of-nowhere secondary school that's been afflicted by the death of a teacher and other disappearances as well. The supernatural thriller uses a first-person slideshow-style format, with live actors and filmed locations setting the stage for this haunted high school mystery.

Relics: Dark Hours is currently available exclusively at Big Fish Games for $9.99 (or $6.99 for Club members). For more details, check out our hands-on preview and interview with Bryan Wiegele.
