Demon Guardian
Four girls and a newbie witch doctor explore their friend's haunted house. Although welcoming at first glance, the house shows its true colors when night falls...
Based on the ghosts and beliefs of Thai folklore, Demon Guardian is a visual novel with multiple endings, told from the perspective of Pim, a girl who attract spirits. She quickly drew the attention of the new transfer student, who seems to have a ton of these spirits under his control...

Hello! I am a visual novel dev from Thailand who's terrified of ghosts. I tried to work on this game only during the day time lol. When I was young, I was obsessed with Japanese youkai and folktales, and loved watching anime like Nurarihyon no Mago and Gegege no Kitaro. My 10-year-old self drew a comic featuring Thai ghosts/spirits, and as a kid, I never bothered finishing it.
A while ago, I came across the meme that said 'Thailand is the real-life Jujutsu Kaisen', then I came across the Horror/folklore jam, so I thought, why not? And rewrote that action/fantasy comic of mine into this game. Thailand has a ton of good horror stories and I'm not trying to match that standard (this being my first time writing horror and all, and to be honest it's hard lol), I'm just making a game that I'd enjoy so I hope you might find some of it fun as well.
This game draws heavily upon the concept of mo phi or witch doctors. I also included a bunch of other ghosts and spirits but I'm trying to not overload the game. You can read more about them here:
