#Give me a museum that knows it’s artifacts are malicious and killing security guards but they’d rather die than give up their status

I think haunted museums are an underutilized concept

you take so many personal objects from peoples final resting places, at least SOME of that shit is gonna be haunted or cursed.

Night at the museum is the closest we as a society have come to a museum horror story and that’s a damn shame

#Give me a horror story in a museum #give me a theme abt the real horror being the way museums steal sacred or personal objects from their cultures #Give me a museum that knows it’s artifacts are malicious and killing security guards but they’d rather die than give up their status #I was gonna say movie but honestly make it an indie horror game #Fnaf doesn’t get a monopoly on security guard protagonists #Also cuz it’s be cool to run around a museum after dark #Recreate the entire British museum in blender and then make it spooky #I’m imagining a sort of walk around experience where you can read the plaques for different exhibits #And the plaques get more fucked up over the course of the night #Talking about how many people died to get it here or how a persons spirit is screaming for this to be returned #Idk what the gameplay would be maybe something a bit amnesia-esque #No weapon more of a run around and hide #Collecting key cards or codes you need to get to different areas and escape #I’ve never actually wanted to to make a video game but now I’m tempted nooooo #Ugh that’s be so much work #And yet #I’m thinking about all the statues with missing hands and heads and noses #Body horror potential #Museums are so big and twisty they’d be amazing
