Alright, let’s dive in. Hold onto your hats; this might get a bit wild.

Okay, so picture this: There’s this game that just popped out of nowhere at the big Xbox event. It’s called “There Are No Ghosts at the Grand.” But get this – it’s not just a game. It’s like a bizarre mashup of home renovation, a ghost hunt, and then, out of the blue, a musical. Yeah, seriously! Kinda like one of those weird dreams where you’re painting a wall and suddenly you’re in a musical number. Go figure.
Anyway, you’re Chris David. Picture this young guy from the U.S. who’s suddenly landed a crumbly old hotel on the English coast. How? Don’t ask me, I’m just retelling the tale. You’re supposed to fix it up using these talking power tools. (Yep, they’re chatty.) But every night… something’s not quite right. Creepy crawlies? Maybe.
Here’s the catch, you’ve got this crazy deadline – 30 days and nights. Renovate or bust, I guess. The tools you get aren’t your average Home Depot finds either. Think sand blaster and, wait for it, a furniture cannon. Who comes up with this stuff? But the kicker is, you don’t need to be all detail-focused. Just slap some paint, blast some furniture, and call it a day.
Oh, and there’s this… sort of AI helper, Robert C MacBrushy. Imagine a mix between Scotty from Star Trek and Clippy from Microsoft Word. I wish I was kidding. He’s in on the supernatural stuff too, but you’ll figure that out when you need to move old windows or deal with haunted puzzles. Crazy, right?
Now, what about Chris? Well, by day, he’s all about redecorating, but by night, he’s like Scooby-Doo, snooping around for hidden clues. The hotel’s a whole bag of mysteries – like those weird footprints on the walls. What’s that about? Who knows, but maybe MacBrushy helps out there too.
Oh! And just when you thought it couldn’t get weirder, there’s a cat. A cat who chats with an Australian accent at night. Mr. Bones. Daytime? Cute kitty. Nighttime? Sassy commentator. Friend? Foe? Hard to say, honestly.
And just when you think the game’s done throwing curveballs – it’s actually a musical too. Not Broadway, no! Think British ska and punk with characters belting out stories. You can even sing along if you’re into that sort of thing, or just chuck furniture around. Whatever floats your boat.
Kingswood-on-Sea, the town outside? Totally got its things going on. It’s not just backdrop decoration – you can explore it. Imagine old streets with secrets buried in them. Mini-golf, rusty scooters, all waiting. Oh, and don’t stay out too late or else… something from the sea might come crawling. Cue dramatic music.
In a nutshell, “There Are No Ghosts at the Grand” is this hilariously odd mix of building, attacking ghosts, and spontaneously breaking into song. Sprinkle in some peculiar townsfolk and mysterious upholstery – seriously, don’t trust the sofas.
So, mark your calendars for 2026 if this sounds right up your alley. Just be careful of what might creep out of those eerie hotel walls. Maybe it’s just a memory or, fingers crossed, a friendly ghost. Who knows?
