LOTR's Pippin is Your Ghost-Busting Sidekick in There Are No Ghosts at The Grand | gamescom 2026

There Are No Ghosts at The Grand lets you live out your fantasy of renovating a hotel, that just so happens to be haunted. We sat down to chat with Anil Glendinning, creative director and writer, and Lord of the Rings legend himself, Billy Boyd… well sorta. We got the inside track on ghost hunting, the challenges in juggling horror, musical numbers and making a fun renovation game, working with Alex Brightman, and how the open world plays! It won’t be long before you can start renovating and ghost hunting at the Grand as There Are No Ghosts at The Grand launches in December 2026 for PC (Steam, Xbox on PC) and Xbox Series X|S.
