Hi all,

I wonder if anyone of you have played the PC horror first-person shooter, **Clive Barker’s Undying**. Just wondering - knowing that Clive Barker is the author of several horror novels, is the game based off an exact novel by Clike Barker (Checked out Borders, but no luck). If not, is there a site, or anyway, for me to find the text of journal logs within the game?

Thanks in advance!

I’m pretty sure there is’t a novel. In fact, IIRC, they started the game before Barker was on the project. He made changes to the story after they hired him.
