Portuguese indie developer Camel 101 has announced that Dead Stop – No Vacancy, a short, standalone first-person horror experience, will launch on Steam on August 13, 2026.
No Vacancy is the first entry in Dead Stop, a new anthology of short, standalone horror games inspired by classic horror stories and unsettling places.
Players step into the shoes of Nancy, a hard-edged investigative reporter whose journey to the town of Crestfall takes an unexpected turn. Stranded without directions or a GPS signal, she arrives at the remote Paradise Motel just as daylight begins to disappear.
What initially appears to be an inconvenient stop soon becomes an investigation into the motel’s dark history, and whatever may be hiding beneath it.
Dead Stop – No Vacancy features:
- A short and complete first-person horror experience.
- Environmental puzzles connected to the motel’s history.
- A story told through exploration and environmental details rather than cutscenes.
- A retro visual style inspired by 1980s slasher films.
- One night at the Paradise Motel, where nobody checks out clean.
