Dreams in the Witch House is a Open World Horror Adventure Game with RPG Elements, based on the 1933 short story of the same name by H. P. Lovecraft, though it also borrows many other elements from Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos universe. It is developed by the indie developer Atom Brain Games and published by Bonus Stage Publishing, and was released in February 2023.It is March 1929, and it is the beginning of a new semester at the prestigious Miskatonic University in the city of Arkham, Massachusetts. One of the new faces at the university is the young math student Walter Gilman. Walter seems to be have a promising future as mathematician ahead of him, but his true passions lie somewhere a bit more strange and esoteric. Outside of his studies of mathematics, Walter have also always had a keen interest in ancient folkelore and old religions, and now he aims to make a big impression on his academic field by combining these two livelong interests in his first semester term paper. Indeed, through extensive study of the Miskatonic University's impressive collection of texts on the occult and the employment of advanced and somewhat radical new theories in math and physics, he plans to produce scientific evidence proving the existence of magic.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Being an outsider to Arkham, Walter finds a study apartment in a local boarding house owned by the elderly and somewhat crusty Ms. Dombrowski, and settles in, eager to begin his studies and one day present his theory. Walter, however, soon learns from one of his neighbors, the cryptic and aloof mechanic, Joe Mazurewicz, that the old house hides a terrible secret, related to its previous owner, Keziah Mason, as well as Walter's interest in the occult. Walter soon finds himself regularly haunted by horrible nightmares which threatens both his health and his sanity, and it is up to the player to help Walter not only pursue his studies, but keep him from losing both his life and even his very soul as he delves deeper and deeper into an eldritch mystery and discovers that he might be the one person who can stop an ancient evil from striking again.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

Golden Ending: While quite difficult, it is indeed possible to have Walter survive the ordeals of the story and brushes with the Elder Gods with his physical and mental health relatively intact, defeat both Keziah Mason and Brown Jenkin, foil the cult's ritual and set them back years, if not decades, by producing enough evidence of their nefarious activities to convince the police to perform a raid on their May-Eve gathering, while also personally intervening to save the life of the child they were planning to sacrifice and return him to his mother, while also accomplishing the academic feats of finishing his term paper and presenting his theory and doing well on his exams, if not outright passing them with flying colors.

The Alcoholic: Joe Mazurewicz's penchant for bootleg whiskey has settle him with this reputation. The player can turn Walter into one too if they try to make him cope with his slipping sanity through booze.

Cranky Landlord: Downplayed. Ms. Dombrowski is not entire unreasonable, but her house rules, such as forbidding visitors after 5 pm are noted by Walter to be a bit strict. She also gets annoyed when Walter tries to bring up the rumors of the Mason House's colorful past, and shots down his attempts to talk about it.
