For me, one of the best and most polished submissions!
The use of pixel art for the player hands and stuff is really cool, reminded me of Blood. The music's interesting, not exactly dark, but contemplative and even hopeful. I would remove it and add ambiences to make it more tense: animals in the distance, strange howls, branches breaking, wind. The UI is cool and works really well. Some problems reading the text though.
Lastly, the jump scares feel awkward. I wouldn't use it here, as it actually works against the narrative you propose: a more intricate and subtle story. A quick and random aparition of a blood stained kid standing somewhere then running into the dark would have freaked me out!
Great work!
