Psychological Horror Multiplayer Prop Haunt Launches in Steam Early Access August 29
Four ghosts. One investigator. Infinite ways to haunt.

Raleigh, NC, United States - August 21, 2025. Indie developer Silent Forest Games today announced that Prop Haunt, the 4v1 psychological horror multiplayer game of supernatural hide-and-seek, will launch on PC via Steam Early Access on August 29, 2025. Players can wishlist now to prepare for the paranormal showdown.

In Prop Haunt, four mischievous ghosts haunt everyday objects to expand their influence in the physical world, while one lone investigator races to uncover and report the hauntings before they spiral out of control. The ghosts can teleport between rooms, possess props, and unleash terrifying tricks, while the investigator uses cameras, gadgets, and sharp observation to root them out.

Early Access Launch Content

For the Early Access launch, Prop Haunt will launch with:

4 playable Ghosts with unique haunting styles
2 distinct maps packed with hiding spots and haunting opportunities
Public & Private lobbies for friends or strangers
In-game voice chat for coordination...or misdirection

Early Access Roadmap

Silent Forest Games will work closely with the community to evolve Prop Haunt during the Early Access development journey, with upcoming features including more maps, additional Ghost powers and Investigator tools, procedural prop generation for endless replayability and leaderboards and more!

As a Ghost, your goal is to haunt as many objects as possible, gain energy, and unleash powers like blackouts, slowdowns, and jump scares. Destroy enough rooms and the investigator won't stand a chance.

As the Investigator, you'll scan for supernatural activity using cameras, zap haunts to disrupt ghosts, and survive the night without being driven mad.

Key Features

Camera-Based Investigation – Step into the investigator's shoes, scanning rooms with cameras to detect moving or levitating props. Zap haunts to stun ghosts or lock them in rooms, buying precious time to complete your sweep.
Haunt and Hide – As a ghost, possess everyday objects, teleport between rooms, and blend into your surroundings. The more you haunt, the more powerful you become, but draw too much attention and you'll give yourself away.
Evolving Ghost Powers – Keep haunted objects active to build energy, then unleash blackouts, slowdowns, terrifying scares, or destroy rooms entirely to shut down the investigation.
Coordinated Mayhem – Work with up to three fellow ghosts to outwit and overwhelm the investigator. Destroy enough rooms and the ghosts will claim total victory.

The hunt begins on August 29 ... will you survive the night? Wishlist now and get ready for the Prop Haunt Steam Early Access launch!
