If you don't mind me asking, was this game based on a true story? Or just the concept of stuff your cousin told you on behalf of your departed relatives?
The game is totally a true story. I summarized some small details to make the game easier to play (and more things happened that day), but the story reflects the event with great detail.
My cousin told us a lot of things. He belive what he saw and heard when he was "out". And he completely changed his behavior after that... You (anyone) can believe him or not. That´s the "hope" part, I think. ;)
