The Cemetery Shift

The Cemetery Shift is a short, first-person horror story set over a single night. You play as a college student working an overnight security job at a remote cemetery in the Arkansas woods. The game takes about an hour and focuses on atmosphere and story.

Watch and investigate

You spend much of your shift monitoring CCTV feeds from the security booth. When a camera catches something suspicious, you head out to investigate, search the cemetery grounds and interact with the environment as events unfold.

Progress through the story

Conversations let you choose responses to continue the story. You also collect, inspect and use items to make progress, and interactable events develop as you play. Detailed visuals, lighting and a VHS mode shape the atmosphere.
