The Story

Professor Gartner spent his life in his house and swore ghosts were nonsense. He died in a fire at 4:59 and woke up as the thing he mocked, and now sunlight burns him. The Itadori family (Dad, Mom and Kid) has bought the house. If they last three days, the deed is theirs.

Drive them out, or make them stay. There are 7 endings to find.
