With these words the chef author refers to the horror-experience Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs. Against expectations the plot won't be continued, but rather seen and told from another point of view, so there isn't really a direct connection to the prequel. 60 years after the happenings in The Dark Descent actions take place in the same universe, where fear and terror lurk around you behind each corner. The new main character is Oswald Magnus, a wealthy industry lord, who returned from an exhausting trip from Mexico to London. Both fever and amnesia plague him - not until months he suddenly awakes on New Year's Eve in 1899 because of deafening noise caused by machines. From now on he's susceptible to attacks in branched corridors and basements...
