Harvest is a custom story for Amnesia: The Dark Descent, which places you in the shoes of Liam Connelly, a journalist for the Irish Record. Following a tip from the lead detective on a case he's been covering, Liam travels to a restored castle estate in County Kilkenny in hopes of breaking the story as it unfolds.

Most of the info is in the summary, but additional details:
I'm fine. No damage to my old house or the new one I'm moving into. The new one still has power (it hardly got touched). The old one got hit pretty hard, but fortunately nothing was broken apart from the power lines (in several places in the neighborhood, and dozens more across town). The PC on which I have Harvest loaded is currently disassembled in the garage of the new house, while I move the rest of my things over the next few days.
Prologue Part II is still scheduled for its original release date, but I may end up having to make it shorter in order to meet that deadline (it should still be longer than Part I however, with a lot more plot development).
Oh, and thanks to Wikipedia for the preview image. This PC (actually it's a Mac) has no images on it that are large enough, so I had to scrounge one. University terminals are pretty spartan.

This sounds great. Also it's set in Kilkenny, so did you get any inspiration from the legendary Witch of Kilkenny?

Dead?

The first Prologue release will be posted up on the Addons tab tomorrow. It might be a day or two before it's cleared ModDB authentication. The next Prologue (2 of 3) is due in late September, and the final one is due in late October. The full release of the mod (Chapter One, anyway) is expected in the last week of December. Chapter Two will be released sometime after that, and will be a direct continuation of Chapter One.
I very much like your idea with the torches. More interactivity is just the thing lots of Amnesia mods are missing.
I had at one point allowed the player to use a mobile torch to light additional torches by touching the lit end to the unlit torch ends. (Spoiler alert.) This is probably going to play a role in Harvest, as well. (I was kidding about the spoiler, by the way. Tee hee.)
(Semi-spoiler for real now.) There are two alternate plotlines that I am currently developing side-by-side. There's a poll running at Frictionalgames.com to determine which, or which segments of each, will be in the final product. Until that poll is finished next week, I'll be doing the Prologue maps (beginning with touch-ups on Prologue Part III, the first map to be released (which is coming out next Tuesday - or Friday - or both if I feel like expanding or fixing any bugs people find in it, releasing a sort-of 0.1.0 version on Tuesday and 0.1.1 on Friday (1.0 won't be the number until all three maps are released, and then incremented from there as fixes are applied).
Actually, why don't I make a news post about this?
