Couldn't finish it due to bad design choices in the bathroom. I have the sound down to 0.1 and there's a constant loud, gurgling drain noise. Is it a sound prompt for something? Who knows because there's a constant, flickering light! There's 'atmospheric' and then there's 'so obnoxious that it makes the gameplay harder through overstimulation'. I've played plenty of games that use darkness intelligently - hell, even the bedroom had a lightbulb to find before we got to the Bathroom of Epilepsy-Triggering Aggravation. I don't even care about about the mystery anymore.
