About the Story

su·per·sti·tion :: a widely held but unjustified belief in supernatural causation leading to certain consequences of an action or event, or a practice based on such a belief

A simple college student. Those were the words that once described you, and you would’ve shrugged your shoulders in agreement. Your day was a never-ending cycle of the same thing. Wake up, go to class and study, work, visit your uncle, go to sleep, have traumatic nightmares, and repeat for another day. So, it would be an understatement to say that you didn’t sign up for this.

You didn’t sign up for the supernatural, to learn that werewolves, shapeshifters, witches, demons, and angels all exist. You didn’t sign up for the target that now resides on your back, and the list of names that have you to blame for their untimely demise. And now, to add on to everything else, an old friend is re-appearing. Everyone has a secret, and you have no idea who you can trust.

Fight and hunt that which goes bump in the night. And avoid those that hunt you for their own purposes. Meet others with their own agenda. The world has shown its true colors, it’s up to you how to deal with it.

- Play as male, female, or non-gender specific, along with transgender choices.
- Romance one of five characters, have flings, or stay single because life is hectic enough as is.
- Customize not only your appearance, but also your personality and how you deal with the ever-changing world around you.
- Hunt a wide array of supernatural creatures but be hunted by others.
- Learn the truth of your past, and how it will impact your future.
- Uncover secrets that aren’t yours to uncover.

Superstition is for 18+ due to dark themes, alcohol references, gore, violence, and sexual themes. Reader discretion is advised.

An exciting supernatural adventure, May 3, 2021
by Shadowcutie (USA)

Superstition is such a good supernatural series. It's dark and tense though it has lots of moments of levity--playing a sarcastic/jokester Roe can either be a breath of fresh air for some, or a bunch of jarring "this doesn't fit the moment at all" and *eyerolling* moments for others.

The characters, the companions in particular, are well written and are the kinds of characters you either absolutely love or hate with every fiber of your being; so expect a lot of "how can anyone stand this character" type of thoughts. There is some choice to the makeup of your team, while some characters are required there are a couple you can choose to take with you or refuse.

Keep in mind that season 1 only has two, with a minor cameo of another one, of the five (& poly route) romance options. Relationships started in season 1 aren't locked-in for the rest of the series, (Spoiler - click to show)so if you want to break up and switch to another romance for extra angst in later seasons...feel free!

I really appreciate the little PoV moments, it's always a treat to have them in games.

Murderous Fun, June 1, 2024

The author has a distinct writing style that I love, and the story really pulls you in. It's so much more than just a horror story.

Reads like a tv show, April 30, 2021

Writing's pretty good. It reads like a tv show so it's easy to binge.
There's one weasel word that annoyed me to no end though; "Whimper".
You'll see this word everywhere -- it's like people are puppies.
