“Haunting Ground” (or “Demento” in Japan) was such an underrated gem in the survival horror genre. I remember playing it on the PlayStation 2 and being totally hooked by its weird, scary story. The game was creepy as hell, with Fiona waking up in that castle and being hunted by all sorts of freaky characters.
But what really made it stand out for me was the bond between Fiona and her dog, Hewie. They made a great team, and I loved how you had to rely on Hewie to survive.
And of course Fiona was such a babe, it’s a shame she never showed up in a “Demento 2.” I still think about how cool it would have been to get a sequel.
