It takes me back to my childhood playing horror games with my brother. We both love Hollow's channel. He's just a normal, everyday dude and doesn't seem to have some over the top streaming personality. It's relaxing and nostalgic to watch.
For every Dark Pictures Anthology Games, i think this is one of the best. Because it was based on a true story and serial killers are more scarier than a ghost or creatures
@@quorented2849 it’s not the Cecil hotel. It’s based of the h.h.holms murder castle which got destroyed a long time ago. He got different people to build each room so they didn’t catch onto what he was doing
Love your play throughs Hollow, no over the top caricature of a personality, no gimicky editing, just hanging out watching a much braver fella play the games I'd puss out on alone. Top tier quality my guy.
Exactly! So sick of sitting for a few min with a creator.. only to find their laugh is completely fabricated.. their jump scare is obvious and ridiculous and the personality fake to go with it.. this man is just one of us doing what we do.. and making a damn good time of it I might add. I wouldn't normally play these games, too slow for me, but it's sure fun to watch !
I first heard about Howard Holmes story on Mr.Ballen’s podcast. I believe the developers named this game based off Holmes’ quote: “I was born with the devil in me, I could not help the fact that I was a murderer, no more than the poet can help the inspiration to sing.”
This is the first time I watched Hollow. His voice is so calm and nice to listen to. I love it. Thanks for uploading this game. I enjoyed it a lot. Looking forward to the next parts.
The kindness showing up Hollows face every time he’s playing a game is what makes me come back to this channel. He’s just everyone one of us, playing and enjoying a game. Thank you!
It's weird that all the check-out dates for all the clients have same hand writing or look similar. While the check-in dates are all different cause it's the victims own handwriting. The fact the game even pay attention to small details like that is pretty nice.
Did you guys see how in the hotel registry @ 1:36:20 the check in column all had unique and different signatures but the check out date had the same exact hand writing for each group?
you are my new favourite because you keep the game volume up and don't talk through all the dialog.... i can enjoy the full immersion along with you (with the best comments on the side). keep up the good work!
I love this game. The fact that I notice things I wouldn't notice if I played myself is beyond me. Love when Hollow plays a game and screams as the jump scares continue to come with some warning before hand. And last but not least, the house is the hotel in every sense.
I just found your channel a few days ago, and after binge watching, I have to say I’m impressed and have officially subscribed! I love your style, and you keep it interesting! Keep up the great work! 😊
1:36:10 Did anybody notice the level of detail with the dates, i.e the check out dates are written differently to the check in dates which shows someone else wrote the check out dates, very clever work from the developers. Loving the whole series so far especially house of ashes.
@@deanmcinerney726 got this game yesterday as an early Christmas present good game but buggy but I suppose it doesn't bother me cuz I didn't pay for it
I tried to rewatch this with others but honestly Hollow I just came back to rewatch you play this cause it's frankly perfect. Thank you so much for the amazing experience!
Omg I’m late but I’m on this!! I can tell the era from their clothing and who he was before he even said it. H. Holmes the serial killer I’ve ready read on these things before. This is so good ALREADY. Thanks Hollow ❤
I know this is an older video now, but I just want you to know hollow, you're awesome. I'm glad I have found your channel. You're a great entertainer, and it's so easy to just listen and watch. Helps clear the head ya know, so thank you
I CLICKED SO FAST !!!!!!!!! I NEEDED THIS!!! So excited. 💀💀💀 Edit- I’ve made it most of the way through… the character cutscenes are so awkward. And cringe… 🫠🙈
There is a shot of the protagonist checking the bath milk. That is such an amazing shot. The game is inside a world. That shot gives a body to that world. Similarly in films we must also show such details. That kind of detailed shots are what create a whole world full with a body.
love how you go to dead ends (pun intended) before going on the main path , i get so annoyed watching other streamers rushing to the correct path and missing out on so much haha .. gained a fan !
Yaaaaaaay!!!! I absolutely could not wait for this game. Not gonna lie super late to your channel but really love watching you play. I’m gonna need these parts uploaded back to back!
I have been chomping at the bit all week for this game to come out and for you to get early access! I live in South Africa so woke up this morning to this lovely surprise! Now just have to get through the days work and then I can watch! Whoop Whoop!
More like fantasy, Holmes killed 9 people not 200 ,the other 27 he claimed to have killed where found to be alive and he didn't have a hotel he had a couple of store fronts and some rooms for rent
Hollow 37:23 that unexpected scream was the same as mine I almost jump off my seat. My heart almost stopped dark picture chill out how many jump are remaining I don't wanna know hope hollow can't push through this. in my earlier comment hollow pls check the next game trailer after the end credits. loving the episode.
i dont know if you'll ever see this, but ty for your playthroughs. recently lost my crushcrush to death. we always liked watching your videos together. they had a very tough life being abused, bullied, exploited, and we used your videos and wholesome atmosphere to try and unwind after stressful events. just wanted to let you know they greatly enjoyed your content and i wanted to thank you for giving them a semblance of peace and joy/fun in their tragic life.
@@spiculicious nah, i don’t think so, just don’t wanna hop on to watch Hollow’s video and see what people have to say about the game/gameplay in the comments and come across some sob story
Loving all your series currently. Been watching your content for years and you’ve inspired me to start my own channel for gameplays. Thank you for inspiring me and thank you for being amazing 💜

The concept for the game is really amazing, it's sad that these stories are based on a true story but I just cant believe the graphics of this game and how it's set out. I really don't like watching many violent games but this was really unique unlike other games. I love watching the games you play, I have seen a variety of games you have played now and I thought this one was really interesting. It's so close to being realistic and I would barely think of it being a game
Plus the way he talked and looked at the people was a dead give away that the dude was up to something. People just never pay attention to small details.
Always love these games. Appreciate the love on this one fam.
enjoy!
Finally a horror game 💕 fan from 🇵🇭
Yesssss!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Love you hollow! You rock dude!🔥🔥🔥
Let’s go 🔥🔥🔥 It’s like god heard me I just got done talking about this to my friends 🔥
Best
When Hollow posts horror gameplay, it’s mandatory for me to watch. I feel like I’m watching a scary movie with a good friend.
💯💯
Factsss
I usually always wait until all the videos are uploaded before watching Ep1
Nailed it 👏

Yeah I think this is probably going to be the best and I need him to upload this back to back 😭🙏
@@brizzlybear1776 facts , 😭hollow be on it with the video drops
Not only are serial killers scarier, they happen in real life and can be killed/defeated/imprisoned just like any other human being.

I'm such a true crime/serial killer nerd and an H. H. Holmes game based in non-fiction like this is *chef's kiss*
Eek. Those that murder people are obsessed with other serial killers.

I didn’t even notice that!! Bruh these game designers have SUCH great attention to detail
oh i LOVE the detail where the handwriting of incoming guests is diverse but the outgoing dates are obviously the same person
Ahh the curator….. great narrator and character. You know it’s gonna be good when he is in a game!
this game has everything. The graphics, scariness, and sound effects.
you are my new favourite because you keep the game volume up and don't talk through all the dialog.... i can enjoy the full immersion along with you (with the best comments on the side). keep up the good work!
Horror thriller playthrough with Hollow are so different from everyone else and that's a good thing.😎👍🏼

SO good to see Hollow being actually excited for the horror game 😅
Man you became one of the best UA-camrs on UA-cam like for real
A honest and good person that enjoy not like anyone else
Glad you are keeping up 🔥
37:23 & 45:49 are some of the funniest reactions to a jump scare I've ever seen 😂😂😂
I had no idea this game was going to be about H.H. Holmes going into it, just makes it that much better!
Same
I'm so excited for this whole series I need all the parts asap
I just found your channel a few days ago, and after binge watching, I have to say I’m impressed and have officially subscribed! I love your style, and you keep it interesting! Keep up the great work! 😊

Hollow: *12:25* Is that a camera?
Me: -_-; Hollow...I don't think they were so technologically advanced back in those days in 1893
Feels like the quarry just with a different storyline, and I’m all for it
It’s by the same developer. Also a decision based game like the rest of those games
"And Let's Do This"
My favorite words!
Hollow is most definitely my favourite UA-camr, when he uploads it’s always a must watch
I tried to rewatch this with others but honestly Hollow I just came back to rewatch you play this cause it's frankly perfect. Thank you so much for the amazing experience!
I enjoy watching hollow gameplay videos...I always feel like playing with my best buddy...Rock on bruh. Peace n love
Every single one of these Dark Anthologies games have been incredible!
I absolutely love watching your videos! You are at the top of my subscription channels. Keep up the good work! Let’s do THIS!!
Same here bro
I recently watched a documentary on Holmes. They suspect that he started in England and may even be Jack The Ripper, himself.
Omg I’m late but I’m on this!! I can tell the era from their clothing and who he was before he even said it. H. Holmes the serial killer I’ve ready read on these things before. This is so good ALREADY. Thanks Hollow ❤
That's Mr Herman Webster Mudgett to you!
15:43 that wasn't homles in the mirror, Hollow, that's the curator
You know it’s quality scare tactics when we legit both screamed at the same time 😂 during that first jump scare
I can't wait, I'm getting this game later today for my birthday and I'm so excited to play it, I loved the last three games, such an amazing series
Happy belated birthday bro🎉
Soooo excited for this series, especially with Hollow playing!
Yay! Finally….I’ve been waiting for this from you Hollow.. episode one here we go!
So awesome they have a game with HH Holmes in it, along with his Hotel. I've heard the place is to die for.
Or is it Jack the ripper?
Yessssss I’ve been waiting for this one literally 🔥🔥🔥🔥 #TeamHollow🖤
I'm happy you're posting such great content daily, but please take a breather if it starts to exhaust you! We can wait, you know. :)
This is my first time watching Hollow. That mannequin scream was pure art. I'm hooked. xD
I really enjoyed watching you play the demo so I can only imagine how entertaining the full game will be to watch so I'm here for the ride
I know this is an older video now, but I just want you to know hollow, you're awesome. I'm glad I have found your channel. You're a great entertainer, and it's so easy to just listen and watch. Helps clear the head ya know, so thank you
This game is absolutely stunning and interesting keep up the good work. You helped me through a lot of dark times and days I appreciate you
I hope things have gotten better for you ❤️
"Most unlikely. But I will try." That is not the worst mojo to live by btw. Thanks man, I appreciate you playing it.
You always have me in tears! Especially at 45:49
it bothers me so much that characters never, even once, looked each other in the eyes. and the stare of each of them are always dead.
I CLICKED SO FAST !!!!!!!!! I NEEDED THIS!!! So excited. 💀💀💀
Edit- I’ve made it most of the way through… the character cutscenes are so awkward. And cringe… 🫠🙈
I dont know how I've missed this one until now. I LOVE watching your playthroughs of these games
Love your content! You’re so chill and I’ve been wanting a creator that doesn’t scream so much!
i love the 95's horror vibe
the transition-era in this game is immersive
You know what H.H Holmes looks like low-key. The neighbor guy.
