Mansion horror games on GOG

In these games you are inside a big old house that does not want you there: a manor, a villa or a family estate, explored room by room. Doors stay locked until you find the key, the halls double back on themselves, and someone or something else is walking the same floors. The fear comes from never knowing what waits behind the next door or upstairs.
