Hi everyone,
We are very happy to share the news that the haunting Hob's Barrow soundtrack by The Machine. The Demon. is now available to pre-order on vinyl!
Ominous, dangerous, bizarre, but always utterly immersive; the soundtrack transports you back into the folk tale with the drop of a needle. Stumpy Frog Records and Lost In Cult Records have collaborated to put these tunes to wax.
With art by Plastiboo (of Vermis fame) and a stunning framed art design, the soundtrack will be pressed to wax in a limited to 500 copies variant, and sold jointly through Stumpy Frog Records and Lost In Cult Records.
You can pre-order now via Stumpy Frog Records or Lost in Cult.
Truly a thing of beauty, we hope you like it!
While stocks last!
Thanks for your support,
Shaun

Antiquarian Thomasina Bateman is writing a book on the barrows of England, documenting the treasures she finds buried within. When an intriguing letter summons her to the small village of Bewlay, tucked away in the remote countryside, she sets off by train with her assistant a day behind.
Upon her arrival, however, the mysterious man who summoned her is nowhere to be found. Her assistant never arrives. A stubborn landowner refuses access to the barrow, and the locals are wary of this woman who is traveling alone and (gasp!) wears trousers.
The excavation of Hob’s Barrow is off to a rocky start. And then Thomasina starts having strange dreams…
- A dark, complex and evolving storyline featuring interwoven elements from real English folklore.
- Traditional point and click adventure game puzzles and interactions, with an easy modern interface.
- A cast of intriguing characters, from suspicious villagers to sickly vicars to lordly landowners, all with their own unique stories and motives.
- A distinct folk horror tone and grounding.
- Evocative pixel-art graphics, featuring cut-scenes and engaging animations.
- A suitably atmospheric original soundtrack from David Kane, one half of the duo behind the award-winning "Football Game" soundtrack.
- Fiends in the furrows, the smell of damp soil, and a cat or two.
