Venerating deceased loved ones is a tradition that dates practically to humanity’s beginnings. From creating simple family shrines to erecting monumental monuments, the act of marking the passing of those we once held dear is an important part of the grieving process. So once it became clear in What Remains of Edith Finch that its…
At long last, it looks like Cyberpunk 2077 is (hopefully) within reach. It’s been quite a long wait since the game’s initial reveal, and now that wait’s about to pay-off. Will the game live up to the insane hype? Honestly, I don’t think so. I’m certain it’ll be excellent, but there’s no way it’ll reach…
One of my favorite games of all time is home to some surprisingly dark lore, including a mystery that remains unsolved to this very day. I am talking about Undertale, folks, specifically the True Lab (which I talked about in this here Resonance post). I would like to warn you about spoilers for the game’s…
Hello all and welcome back to another Uncanny Account! Last week I dipped into Hollow Knight’s lore and we explored the inevitable horror of the Infection.

Located in the western part of New Austin, in the region called Gaptooth Ridge, lies this abandoned town with, thanks to storytelling in Red Dead Redemption 2, an uneasy history. Practically since the release…
You may or may not be all that interested in Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity. I know I wasn’t. I played the original on the Wii U and it was fun enough, but, just like Link’s Crossbow Training, I couldn’t really get invested in it since it was basically just a non-canon side-story. I thought…
Hey, folks, I’m going to be completely upfront with you about this one. I’m writing about creepy lore in the Kirby series. And before you laugh and walk away, bear with me for a moment longer. Sure, at first glance, Kirby might seem like the cutest franchise to have ever existed. But when you recall…
Hollow Knight isn’t exactly a horror game, but it has its share of creepy encounters and lore nonetheless. While there are others in the game that should probably rank higher, the one that’s stuck with is the encounter with No Eyes. She’s the shade of a warrior bug found in the Stone Sanctuary within Greenpath….
