Really nice know about this, i love the ghosts theme, and after Phasmophobia and Lust Spirit Hunt, i research a lot about them, i'm brazilian and for me, it would be really cool to see something from brazilian folklore too. Have a nice day Gorimu.

Hello,

All of the ghost in this game are the one I came across on various YouTube videos. I haven't seen one mentioning a Brazilian ghost. If you know an interesting ghost you share it's name with me.

The Deogen, also known as the De Ogen or The Eyes(in Dutch), is an evil spirit said to haunt the Sonian Forest in Belgium, often seen in fog form and followed by smaller shadow figures. The story, which is based on a series of true events, has become more of a campfire tale or urban legend with virtually no sightings in recent years.

The mechanic of this ghost could be that once it sets its sights on the player, it will pursue until the hunt is over, hiding will not save you from it either. Once it sees you, It know EXACTLY where you are. A balance is that you can make it slower than normal ghosts.

Some old legends can also work for LSH like:

Lady in Red

Also known as a Red Lady, this type of ghost manifests as the restless spirit of a scorned woman, or even that of a murdered prostitute. Compared to other ghosts, most red ladies tend to be friendly even if they haunt historic hotels, theaters, and similar places. They may also appear vain, often showing off to the living in the hopes of earning praise and capturing their attention. Their appearance reflects this, that of beautiful women in red dresses.

That said, some red ladies have darker reputations, although they still tend to avoid harming the living. For instance, a red lady haunting the First Ontario Concert Hall in Ontario, Canada, goes around crying blood. Similarly, a red lady haunting Leap Castle in Ireland goes around carrying a dagger.

White Lady

Also called a Lady in White, this type of ghost has many similarities with the Lady in Red. For one thing, they’re famous worldwide, with many sightings in countries and cultures all over the globe. For another thing, they also share similar origins, that of women who died violent and untimely deaths.

That said, they also have differences. Most obviously, a Lady in White dresses in white. Also, unlike a Lady in Red, a Lady in White is typically hostile. In fact, a Lady in White will actively try to drive their victims into tragedy, usually destroying their lives before they die. Some versions of the White Lady, like the Russian zayan, even bewitch men with their beauty before literally dragging them beneath the Earth.

I could do Deogen. The ghost will come to your location regardless if she sees you or not. Or maybe releases multiple eye that locates player even if Ted is well hidden. But there will be little delay before ghost catches player if running. 

But not Red lady or White lady. I had both of them in the list earlier but Red Lady is replaced by Tall Lady and White lady with something else.

Oh LAGS thanks for your reply. Well we have a great folklore, it's ok because our folklore it's a little bit different from japanese, for example. We have the most famous spirits like Boitatá, Iara, Pisadeira, Cuca... who are indigenous, and we have themost regional ones that are famous for states like Mãe-do-Ouro, A Loira do Bonfim, A Moça Fantasma da Savassi... there is the Bloody Mary here too, but we call Maria Sangrenta and we have other version called A Loira do Banheiro. Some spirits like Boitatá are "good", well, if you follow their rules. Anyway, they are myths (well, i believe in ghosts, but we call them it that), so you can adapt them to put in your game. I think Boitatá, for exemple, doesn't have a defined gender, so would be cool see a Snake woman in flames. Thanks for your job LAGS, i'm waiting for more updates! God bless you. Sorry for my english.

Hello, I am intrigued by some ghost you mentioned. Right now I only decided to change Pisadeira with Kunekune. Reason being I could plan a secret animations based on her behaviour. Kunekune on the other hand doesn't feel that creepy unless I add it's idle animation which makes it obvious.

Nice Lags, thanks for your work, i'm waiting the next update.
