Vampire Therapist

Vampire Therapist is a narrative adventure in the vein (get it) of What We Do in the Shadows, the horror works of Mel Brooks, Monty Python, and Horrible Histories, where you play as a reformed bloodsucker helping other vampires find inner peace. Take on the role of Sam, a former rootin', tootin' Wild West gunslinger who escaped his day-to-day of murder and mayhem and realized, after a hundred years or so, that there's a whole lot more to unlife than blood, lace, and leather. Dragging himself from the quagmire of the Old West, Sam teams up with a 3000-year-old vampire living in Europe who's willing to show him the therapy ropes. Immerse yourself into this alternate world and meet your clients: self-hating vampires, agoraphobic social media addicts, supernatural narcissists, and victims of centuries-old capitalistic systems. You can't fix the world, but maybe you can help other vampires accept it. That is, if you can accept yourself first.

  • Real Therapy Concepts: You'll learn and apply real cognitive behavioral therapy concepts vetted by licensed therapists. By challenging client statements that contain "cognitive distortions," you'll help vampires see where their thoughts don't match reality.
  • A Comedic Look Through History: Meet emotionally damaged vampires from ancient Greece, Renaissance Italy, Tudor England, and the Bronze Age.
  • Singular Voice Acting: Vampire Therapist is fully voiced, with many characters played by a single actor (Cyrus Nemati, Hades' Ares, Dionysus, and Theseus). It promises to be a singular experience.
  • Unique Setting: Vampire Therapist merges cozy self-introspection with a dark European goth vibe. In fact, the whole thing takes above a goth club in Germany filled with willing necks to bite.
  • Minigames: Learn mindfulness meditation, safely and consensually bite sexy necks.
