You are the ghost of Sammy Grainsville who died at the hands of mysterious circumstances twenty years ago and haunted the home since then, until Natasha tried to banish you ten years ago and stripped away most of your power to leave you dormant. No one else bought it during that time and you remained powerless until a new family has moved in, consisting of Hans the Husband, Marin the Wife and Elizabeth the Daughter.
Spoiler
That night, after moving everything in, Elizabeth decides to play with herself and her lust called to you along with the sexual frustration of Marin, awakening your from your dormant slumber. Now you need to regain your power to interact with the living world and sate the lust that haunts you even now.
The protagonist, a poltergeist named Sammy Grainsville, wants to influence women living in the house in order to gather sexual energy from them (and pleasure of course). He has several days to use his powers to manipulate, harass or support them in need, depending on his approach.
How Sammy interacts with the family affects a relationship value that determines whether they are fond, tolerant or angered by his presence. The higher the value, the more they accept and like Sammy on a subconscious level, which will make it easier to interact with them without raising suspicion.
The game has various rooms for Sammy to visit and interact with over the course of the day depending on his attributes. Within each room you will find objects
he can interact with using his abilities. The more he interacts with the world, the sooner it triggers different events. These events will lead to situations that can raise or lower his abilities and affect Sammy’s relationships.
STRAIGHT UP GARBO of a "game". No wonder this is unheard of here. The only good thing this has is the renders. No idea what the dev thought he was doing with this design. The only way you can get all scenes is by doing a ton of playthroughs, so unless you are an unemployed gooner with lots of free time you wont have the chance to enjoy this. You are immediately force to play either the intended mode with a 30 day limit where you miss almost everything or the story mode where without time limit where you still miss even more. It really amazes me when devs think they are being unique by are a gallery with hidden scenes with no intention of giving hints. Like "uhhm yeah heres 20 scenes you missed.. uh what are they? Errm idk you gotta discover them lol" They must so proud of their game design, how clever!

This game has great charcters, really attractive ones. The graphics is good although some details might be better. The gameplay is not that good. This could be much better games if there will be more possibilities or intersting scenes.

I was eagerly anticipating this. The original Sensual Haunting, janky as it was, was one of my favorite LoP games. The good: - Visuals look great - The map shows where all the characters are - You can save anytime, in multiple slots The neutral: - Game system has been simplified. The old one had an energy system and an hour-by-hour clock, where various tasks took different amounts of energy and time. This one has a fixed number of timeslots and no energy mechanic, just actions that have skill gates. You can also only go to rooms that have people in them. The bad: - Copy errors abound - There's huge delays moving from scene to scene. Like, a black screen for 3+ seconds. Maybe it's a relic of how the game can also be played on the LOP site, but makes absolutely no sense for a game I have installed onto my hard drive. This is by far the worst problem with the game and something I imagine they could patch out, but I highly doubt they will. - Custom engine so there's no text speed settings or any other nice RenPy conveniences, despite the game being simple enough to be a RenPy game. I bought this on Steam so I'm sure none of the issues have anything to do with it being a pirate version. I'm excited that some of LoP's future games will use RenPy because then they won't have these ridiculous technical limitations. I appreciate how different these games are from the typical RenPy VN, so I hope they actually keep some gameplay when they go that route. A couple years ago I actually hacked up the original Sensual Haunting to remove animation delays, add a better save system, and show what rooms the characters were in. It was working pretty well but I lost the code in a hard drive crash before I could publish it. I was hoping this version would be better enough that it could heal my sorrow from losing that code. Some parts of it are, and some parts aren't. Oh well!

We got to remember that Lesson of Passion are one of the earliest players in this E-VN games world, and Sensual Haunting has a couple years so the render quality was outstanding at that time, and still is. I see other devs that cannot get to this level. Also the story is amazing for a game done years ago. 5 stars without a doubt, Leonizer's team is one of the teachers of more recent developers, so thanks to them we can say that this community is possible.

This is a pretty decent and short game with a story that is sufficient if not particularly exciting or coherent. It is good for quick porn setups, and it has some interesting ones with good visuals. However, it could use a better UI and more complete requirement descriptions (there are tasks that have lust requirements as well as stat requirements, but only the stat requirements are displayed). There are also bugs like a buggy gallery that tends to lock previously unlocked content. There are also one-time events that have high stat requirements that one must work towards ahead of time that one would not know about during a first playthrough. There are also some events that actually lower stats that could not be predicted ahead of time. I would give this a 3.5 if I could, but when deciding between a 3 and a 4, I decided that the various technical issues reduced this down to a 3. While this game is currently listed as "Completed", I believe it needs some important tweaks to really improve the overall gameplay and experience.
