Animation. Horror A group of documentary film makers receive a mysterious call inviting them to a modern-day replica of serial killer H. H. Holmes' "Murder Castle". As they film their latest episode, they slowly begin to realize things are not quite as they seem and that they are being watched and manipulated. Soon enough, they discover there is much more at stake than just their ratings.

	Media	Author	Review
		Mark Delaney GameSpot	"Is the best game in the series. Supermassive delivered a great script this time out, and while it's more straightforward than some others that tend to lean on a mid-game twist, it's not without surprises (...) The Dark Pictures will have finally achieved its full potential"
		Tristan Ogilvie IGN	"Is still capable of inducing the occasional jump scare, but for the most part The Devil in Me’s tour through a maniac’s mansion is disappointingly lacking in any real menace or surprise."
		Cass Marshall Polygon	"[It] doesn’t rank particularly high on my personal Dark Pictures ranking (...) But what the game does do very right is take a famous true-crime case (...) even while fitting in jump scares and relationship drama."
		Lara Jackson Screen Rant	"A grisly tale that far surpasses the games that came before it, with flaws few and far between (...) a substantial and sinful story full of dastardly deeds, classic crimes, and unabashed gore. The Devil In Me is a game that immediately deserves a second playthrough after the credits roll."
		Steven Scaife The Washington Post	"A more focused, cohesive and experimental alternative to Supermassive’s bigger efforts (...) From a narrative standpoint, it’s tough to tie up all of a story’s threads when any one of them can end at any time, and “The Devil in Me” exhibits the usual flaws of that approach."
		Brandon Trush Bloody Disgusting	"A clear amalgamation of Supermassive Games’ lessons learned of the past three years (...) I can easily see The Devil In Me sitting firm near the top of many fans’ rankings of the anthology. (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"
