Horror games set in England

These horror games take place in England: Victorian London streets, a Cornish vicarage, the Yorkshire moors, a council flat, a corner shop, a village pub. You explore old houses and quiet towns, talk to locals who know more than they say, and piece together what went wrong. The fear grows out of familiar places, damp rooms, fog and folklore.
