Ghost Train sounds & Ambiance
Posted: 13 Jan 2025 20:53
1. An old time steam engine with inside and outside ambiance. As I am looking to improve a ghost train project's audio, it would also be good to include a number of spooky sounds in the background, some of which are already in Echotopia.
2. My favorite ambiance to use during the running o my project can be found here on YouTube. It is a 3hr long mix but is closes to my desired vision to set the scene.
3. This should set a spooky vibe. I plan on using it during live mode as a virtual escape room. Perhaps potentially D&D style game one day. With each escape room or game I run, I would also like to share the ambiance as a mix on YouTube. This could sometimes be pared with any in-game music I use as well such as a record playing for example (in the case of the ghost train)
Some sounds could include things like:
- rattling chains
- wolves howling
- gusts of wind
- lanterns on the walls rattling as the train moves
- ghostly whispers and voices, screams, etc.
- the train's horn
- the approaching ghost train (old fashion steam engine)
- train starting up and beginning to move if possible.
- creaking of the rails or other noises from an old abandoned train station
- low droning note to create a sense of dread similar to that of the above video
- horses galloping
- ghostly yelling or even gun shots from a revolver / rifle (random echos of past events in the story)
- Music used in this project is generally bluegrass style and in some cases sounding as if being played with a record player. I plan on adding these as additional background noise as players navigate the train and solve its puzzles.
