Welcome to Inside Mac Games' special Halloween feature where we present the top 10 scariest games on the Mac! We racked our brains to come up with this list, and even polled the public for their top 10 list, which is included with choice quotes from forum posters. Rest assured, pop any of these games into your computer, kick your sister out, turn off the lights, and prepare to have the fear of god put in you. Enjoy!


No, I was not under the influence of controlled substances when I put MoH in here. Most people associate “horror” with twisted beings and creatures not occurring naturally. This is simply not true. MoH elicits aspects of horror and disbelief from its audience not through gore or concealed aliens, but through using our knowledge of history as a backdrop for the player to experience first hand. We’ve all heard and read the horror that is D-Day, the invasion of Normandy, etc. Thus by using what we know and putting us in that environment, we witness first-hand the horror expertly painted by designers who heavily researched the topic. If you want to experience one of the most truly frightening and eye-opening sequences in any game, I challenge you to play the Normandy level. In one of the most memorable levels in a game to date, you open your eyes and see yourself surrounded by petrified soldiers vomiting and crying out in an enclosed transport vehicle on the water. Axis planes scream overhead unleashing thousands of rounds of high velocity bullets into the flesh of men around you. A voice screams out to move, and you’re thrust onto the beach of Normandy in a hail of gunfire and explosions. All of this is expertly crafted with a solid graphic’s engine and complex physics model. Explosions will rock your screen and shoot dirt up in the air, and the many scripted events throughout the game add level after level of immersion. MoH might not terrify you in the sense you think, but trust me, when you first come face to face with a Panzer tank and have nothing but your useless M1, you will be a believer. A fantastic game that will send shivers down your spine, this is as close as you will get to reliving D-Day.

Public Choice: The Sims (seriously)

Public Quote: 'The Sims is scary because it sometimes emulates the worst parts of real life. Otherwise known as reality. Because let's face it, sometimes reality can suck.. hard.'

9. Quake
The first game in the series released in 1996 may not hold up to it’s bigger brothers of today, but it still offers a worthwhile glimpse into id Software’s early days and the mainstream birth of 3D first person shooters. At the time, this bad boy featured impressive 3D worlds and wicked enemies handled with obscenely smooth animation. Aiming was beefed up, as not only were there more enemies to deal with, but you had to be accurate with your shots and not simply spray and pray. The obscene amounts of pixel blood and gore present all the more justify its inclusion in the list. Walking through dark and muddied corridors, holding onto your shotgun only to suddenly be ambushed by mutated humans decked out in armor and floating skulls is priceless. Back in the day Quake might have set you shivering in your booties, but nowadays the best reason to experience this timeless masterpiece is for the adrenaline rush. Blasting through enemies with an assortment of rockets and shotguns as you scream through levels as fast as possible will more than satisfy the recommended daily heart rate exercise. If not for the shear thrill of mass carnage, do it for your health.

Public Choice: Return to Castle Wolfenstein

Public Quote: 'Because, yeah, Nazi zombie's are twice as freaky as vanilla ones.'


In one of the greatest modern-day revivals of a past franchise, RtCW continues the tradition of giving Nazi’s their due. Shamefully, most people skipped the single player in favor of the robust multiplayer. Using a heavily souped-up Quake 3 engine, RtCW delivers the goods visually and never falters in the audio department. The story is heavily influenced by occult items the Nazi’s sought in WWII, which they thought had supernatural powers that would enable them to take over the world. The game is all about stylish action and gore, as one of the game’s first scenes is of a fellow allied soldier being electrocuted by a blood-soaked mad scientist. From here, you’ll battle the status quo Nazi’s, but once you start to dig up the Nazi’s occultist plans, you start to encounter the fruits of their labors. Screaming banshees, floating skulls and mummies all make their appearance, but perhaps the best monsters are reserved for the spectacular boss battles. One such instance has you battling a giant ogre-ish creature wrapped in spikes and overhanging flesh, which summons zombies from the earth all the while trying to crush you into a pulp. Ordinary level design is spruced up with excellent fog effects and moody lighting, and the game’s weapons will satisfy even the most battle-hardened Mac gamer. Torching a group of zombie’s and Nazi’s with your flamethrower is perhaps a pivotal moment in the evolution of the first person shooter. Come for the excellent single player campaign, stay for the well-developed multiplayer.

Public Choice: DOOM II

Public Quote: 'Doom II, back when i was younger (hey, just turned 20). Not really scary make-ya-have-nightmares scary, but freak-you-out scary.'


7. Unreal
Five years aged, and Unreal still stands the test of time, and many still cite it as being superior to the recently released sequel. Perhaps what Unreal had going for it the most were its graphics engine, which featured stunningly beautiful, vast landscapes populated with living animals. As soon as you escape your crashed prison ship after one of the best beginnings in a game yet, flocks of birds fly over you and small mammilla creatures scurry away from you in fear. It is that very point where the game hooks you, and slowly draws you in with suspense by offering up mutilated bodies and cryptic logs to increase tension and fear. One of the most remembered creature introductions happens as you walk through a lighted corridor, only to suddenly see each set of lights go out one by one until you’re in pitch black, wondering what’s going on, only to hear a high-pitched roar and flashes of red as a monster leaps to tear you apart. Smart, for the time, enemy A.I. and an engaging story leads you on a worthwhile rollercoaster of a ride that will not only give you some roots, but don’t be surprised if your mouse looks like a chew toy once you’re done playing,

The Top Ten Scariest Video Games

1Amnesia: The Dark Descent

I can't even bring myself to play it myself. Once upon a time, I first saw this game when my dad got it, saying 'oh, hey, I got this new creepy little game, I'll play it tonight! ' I was 7 at the time, and my siblings were only a bit older. Little did we know it wasn't just a creepy little game.
We watched our dad play it for maybe an hour or so every night, but when literally all my siblings, including me, became WAY TOO SCARED of this game to the point where we couldn't go the bathroom by ourselves, or open doors or go in dark room; heck, we were too terrified to to anything alone. Our dad then decided he shouldn't play it anymore..
Now, several years later, my older siblings bought it again, and we didn't know whether to be excited.. Or really, really nervous.
We waited until midnight.. Turned off all the lights and turned the volume really high.. And yeah, we're all too scared of candles and lanterns now. And hallways. And all that good stuff. I guess that ..more

Amnesia is an indie game where you play this man who finds himself in this dark castle, remembering only his name, Daniel. He finds a note from his former self, telling him that the amnesia was deliberate, and he needs to find and kill this old guy named Alexander without question, who is hiding somewhere in the castle. He must run from the Shadow hunting him, while also running from other wandering horrors, while also (lol) trying to keep himself from going insane.
The developers wanted viewers to focus mainly on the storyline, as that helps immerse them into the game. Sadly most gamers do not have this patience, and often skip the reading. I suggest you read as much as you are able, as it makes for a much scarier experience.
The sound is amazing and the graphics are great, especially for being created a decade ago. It doesn't use cheap jumpscares, and relies on the suspense. You have no weapons, and must survive by running, hiding and using your wits. Everything is ..more

Amnesia is the scariest game ever to be put out. You're in a dark castle, and each corner you have to expect a monster to be there. The atmosphere really does you in. By the way, your character is going insane.

The reason I vote for this is because of the way it scares the crap out of you.
It doesn't use a cheap, cheesy jump scare.
It doesn't have scripted events that you expect to happen after a while.
It doesn't let you look at where the monsters are.
Instead, it builds up dread, tenses up the atmosphere to the point where you get skittish of every change in the light. It randomizes the monster encounters, making their encounters that much scarier. And with the sanity counter, you can't afford to lose it looking at the monsters.
Outlast was decent, but the jump scares got repetitive and predictable. Silent Hill was extremely close (I would've voted for it a couple years back) but had its moments, and don't get me started on FNAF. I'm sorry if it sounds like I'm rambling here, but Amnesia is hands-down the most terrifying game I've seen.

2Dead Space

This one is all about atmosphere. And a sense of hopelessness. That is what makes is scary to me. Lighting, or lack thereof, and creepy/strange sounds all add to a truly absorbing setting, and make you feel as if you could be attacked from anywhere, at any time, by pretty much anything. Also, you can feel the sheer terror of the supporting characters, which only adds to your own. Fantastic game. - Kazzong

A truly terrifying experience. I had gotten the game from a friend who wanted to see my reaction to it. He forgot to mention it was a horror game. I've never been more scared and terrified in my life. Every step you take requires so much courage and fortitude, because in any room, in any hallway, those harbingers of death and destruction, the necromorphs, can be waiting to end you once and for all. - jc9865

Honestly, how can a game scare you that much?! I was literally sweating with fear, awaiting for something to pop out.

One of the few modern horrors that focus on atmospere, the creepy dark and flickering lighting, the corpses gore and blood pools, the disturbing enemies, and the hopelessness. These create tense and scary areas, and the enemy placement creates climaxes to keep the game from getting boring while creating jump scares, and intense and frantic firefights. I'm glad the other two sequels stayed true to the original.

3Slender

Slender is a game where no matter how old or young you are you will always be scared by Slender. Creepy music followed be whispering in your ear and random blood all over the walls, you cannot argue that Slender will always scare the crap out of you!

You're walking through a forest at night. You pick up a page that says something like 'LEAVE ME ALONE. ' Then this ominous thudding music kicks in. The next thing you know Slender man is standing in front of you and it's game over. - guest1

This game isn't even a quarter of even disturbing to be honest.

This game is the scariest one that I played. And I like it SO much because it's a different kind of scary, it's simple, and scares the crap outta people. The simplicity of it makes it scary.

4Silent Hill 2

Probably my favorite game of all ti me. d on't know about now but it scared me back in the day, I constantly found myself pacing back and forth or just standing still with the profound dilemma of whether I even should proceed to the next room or simply continue down a pitch black hallway or not. Yeah. That nerve wracking, numb-with-fear, stop-dead-in-your-tracks kinda scare. Oh and ofc probably the best game OST ever in terms of ambiance, which was actually probably the biggest contributing factor as to why it's so scary. But others would definitely be the empty/quite town, the thick fog, the alarmingly unconcerned people you meet, the eerily 'human-like' creatures with their 'thingy' textures and features, which never really poses any physical threat yet still manages to make you wanna take another route if possible. Just to give you an idea of what it felt like; it always bothered me as soon as James made a teeny weeny sound -for instance those creaks from ..more

As opposed to bland jump scares, Silent Hill 2 is disturbing as it is iconic. Games like Resident Evil 4 and Dead Space just shove something scary in your face, but SH2 makes you walk away from the game mentally disturbed.

I..disagree. Don't get me wrong. Silent Hill 2 is one of the most fantastic games I've ever played, and the story was phenomenal, but let's be realistic. Silent Hill 2 wasn't the scariest Silent Hill game. It had some amazing atmosphere, but out of the first 4 games, it was probably the least scariest. I never played anything past 4, so I can't judge its placement there. Like I said, amazing game, probably the best in the series, but I don't think it's the scariest. - Ornsmoughstein

Come on now dead space has nothing on silent hill 2 and re4 is epic but not scary This game one the other hand has PYRAMID HEAD it deserves at least no2

5Outlast

Outlast is the scariest game you can ever play, I almost have a heart attack when the jump scared comes up, Oh one thing go watch The utuber Theradbrad he is the best video game utuber ever! - CatLeena14

It could've been better. The atmosphere in the game was really creepy and made me feel tense at every corner, but then they ruin the experience with a crappy jump scare! These type of things don't even scare you, they trigger a natural reaction inside you to defend yourself. The character A.I was crap too. Sometimes when I hid from the doctor, I'd hide under a bed, the doctor would then check the bed next to me and apparently he wouldn't be able to see me. Even when he's looking straight at me! That's bull! Even thought the game had great graphics, an awesome atmosphere and truly scary characters, it was ruined by these two things. The DLC suffered the same exact problems too. Except maybe there were fewer jump scares.
- G

The only reason this isn't #1 is because it just came out and hasn't had time to be voted on like the rest of these. Trust me, it's definitely number one.

I watched my boyfriend play this game and it was so scary, we were screaming at every turn. I mean you can't go wrong with an abandoned asylum with crazy people running around. Plus you are unarmed, you run or hide and it makes it that much scarier and heart wrenching.

6Resident Evil 4

This game isn't as scary as RE3 because you're being chased all the time. - Bloodbirth-HQ

I don't mind Zombie games. This isn't a zombie game, this is a what IS THAT MUTATNT DOING WITH A CHAINSAW, or, wHAT IS THAT THING CRAWLING OUT OF THAT BODY. Don't turn that corner. Doom or Manhunt were a little creepy, and what is Bioshock doing on this list.

I haven't played many of the titles on this list, so my opinion may be invalid. The amount of time that I spent wiping sweat off my controller during the first survival sequence in the village square added up to more time than I spent on the game itself.

Nothing makes you wet your pants more than a regenerator reviving itself after you have waisted all of your ammo shooting at its head only to see it completely healed just moments later.

7Five Nights at Freddy's

I don't really think this game belongs in the top ten. It's only here because it's a popular game and people think it's scary even though it's not. There's no gore, no nothing. Purely terrible jump scares. Don't get me wrong, it's a really fun game, it's just not scary. However, FNAF 4, is very scary, being based in a house rather than a restaurant. I just think the original FNAF isn't scary or creepy enough to be in the top ten.

Do I believe the game is scary? No. However, I have watched playthroughs of every game multiple times, watched more theory videos than games in the franchise, listened to hundreds of songs, and read nearly all of the books. It has lost its horror gameplay wise. Yet, there are a few famous Youtubing groups (OneyPlays and Game Grumps) who dived into this expecting to meme their way through. Once the animatronics started to wander, they quickly started rambling, shutting doors, frantically switching cameras, before they jump at the inevitable jumpscare. The game is an anxiety attack waiting to happen, and, with many mechanics being added to freak you out more with each passing game, it is a very frightful experience. The lore is horrible, in a good way. Watch The Game Theorists 20+ theory videos to get an idea on why many people still trouble with both solving and stomaching this franchise's intense lore. - MasterBeef

The animatronics are creepy, and the story behind the game is horrible..

It's so funny how many ignorant people are bashing Five Nights at Freddy's without knowing its intense lore and how they all culminate into one terrifying experience. Only true fnaf fans could appreciate just how terrifying this gaming experience is. I bet you majority of the people that hate Fnaf only played a portion or watched youtube videos on it without knowing the lore. This game has the most convoluted and therefore one of the best lores out of any video games in my opinion, which makes games like fnaf 5 terrifying, since the build-up to a possible jumpscare creates insane tension which I never felt before. The atmosphere screams dread with actual tactics being required to win it. No, this game isn't just purely jumpscares so please play it before being so judgmental. - friday1365

8Silent Hill

I like Silent Hill game and movie, It's the best horror game and movie ever! - CatLeena14

Laugh out loud. This list is really sad. There are only a few actually scary games on here, and this is pretty much the only one I couldn't finish due to how scary it was. I really tried to finish, but I couldn't T-T

This game touched me deep inside, Besides the horror that scared the fritz out of me when I first played it at night and the down right sic monsters, the story showed so much! I stand to my answer, Silent hill is pure perfection!

Took me six years to get up the courage to finish this game. Even then, it took moral support: :'Open the door. No! OPEN THE DOOR! FINE! '

9Doom 3

Holy! @#$, this is terrifying! I've seriously never played a game that's scarier than this. It's ridiculously frightening, every single moment. There's not a second where you're not on the edge of your seat. Easily the scariest game of all time.

This is the scariest game list not a survival game list! Resident Evil 4 or any of the resident evil games were not scary like Doom 3's pot outs or scary demon images.

Holy God, I watched my dad play this, and I got scared to death. - jprg12

This is the scariest game at level 2 mars city underground when the radio chatter starts chatting. I played this since I was like 4 or 5 years old when the lights when out I got so scared also my therapist said that to me he got scared too when the lights when out I played this so many times. This came back in 2004 for the PC and 2005 for the Xbox So this is more better than Resident Evil 4.

10F.E.A.R.

Your heart could get problem if u really getting the true feel of fear - KrauserFear

Because it sets out the feeling of fear with Alma's apparitions and tricks and when I first played it gave me shivers down my spine

Fear is such a great game, but the remakes are nowhere near as scary as the original. (extraction point and perseus mandate) Fear 2 and 3 are more action than horror and are never going to be as scary. - TheGrammarPolice

The best thing about this game is it has both ghosts and humans as enemies

The Contenders

11Manhunt

It may not be scary, but it's a bloody great game. The unique gameplay, the levels of atmosphere, the social commentary about media violence and the black humour makes Manhunt not scary but instead one of the most underrated games of the noughties. - Mrveteran

This game gave me goosebumps!

My dad has this game and even the cover looks scary! - funnyuser

Manhunt 2 is very, very dark and actually spooks me.

12Dead Space 2

Even though I haven't played the Dead Space games, if the eye poke machine mini-game from this installment is anything to go by, you'll be thanking God that you don't live in a reality with that kind of nightmare fuel. Also, seeing the Necromorph transformations on YouTube firsthand will probably have me scarred for a day or two until then. Truly the perfect blend of science fiction and survival horror. - ModernSpongeBobSucks

This should be in the top three easy. Kids these days don't know good horror.

Most beautiful graphics to see the blood & deads. Nice storyline to give you the adrenaline.
It's the future of horror.

I know, that's why new horror movies are mostly rated pg 13 and suk

13Fatal Frame 2

One of the scariest games for ps2. fatal frame 1 is even more scary

It is scary. What makes it even scarier is the fact that it was based on a Japanese urban legend that has to do with a haunted house, Himuro Mansion. You take pictures of ghosts and if you take a picture of a hostile ghost, it will pounce at you and grab the camera lens and you have to use a special camera effect in order to shoo it away.

Oh man it's so creepy that there are little ghost girls saying wanna play?

Hell ya I wanna play

14Slender Rising

This game is scarier than any game I played but not scarier than amnesia

This is much scarier version than any other slender game

This is more scarier than the original honestly

15Alien: Isolation

Never played this, but I love watching the funny moments that others have, in 3 words, this game is scary and funny at the same time.

A game which fills you with stress, anxiety, total fear and dread for playing the video game, that is what a horror game is. Alien: Isolation hits all the marks for being so terrifying. You are on a space station and have to complete several missions whilst trying to escape that terrifying Xenomorph which makes the atmosphere just perfect. Not only that this game gives you so much fear that you feel like your in Amanda Ripley's shoes. No matter what happens when that Xenomorph finds you and you have to run your heart is going to beat so fast it will burst just like the alien chest burst. Good luck sleeping tonight if you have played this game. - EJ0602

The Xenomorph is fantastic, it's A.I. is top notch, and the model is amazing too. The gameplay is very smooth, the graphics are great too. The game makes you feel like you're in the ship with the characters, when you hide from the alien I actually feel fear. I rarely get that from games. Or even movies. So yeah, this is probably the scariest game I've ever played.

This game makes me very nervous, creepy atmosphere, alien and it's A.I. ,soundtrack.. This is very creepy horror game and it should be in at least top 5!

16P.T.

This was the first horror game I was actually scared while playing. Most games have jump scares that sometimes work on me. But this game made me not want to go down the halls and see what's next. It's a real shame Silent Hills was canceled after they showed off this masterpiece. 'Is it the best horror game? ' No, it is only a demo, but I feel like it should be in top ten.

For real I've never been scared of a game before but this was crazy, not surprised it got cancelled its seriously terrifying! Quite F'd up as well with a dead fetus in the sink, the storyline being of a horrible nature, all the twists and turns, not many jump scares BUT NONE ARE NEEDED it's freaky enough without them but it certainly adds to the whole atmosphere. Everything changes as you go round and round but yet it's all the same, you will see it and think wow it's repetitive, but, trust me if you have a ps4 or somebody you know has one download Silent Hills P.T (playable teaser) I guarantee you, it will leave you bones feeling icy cold..

This is the most scariest experience I've ever been in, god this is scary this was worse then the exorcist and amnesia and slender and dead space but alien isolation was a close second but this is the most scariest experience I've ever been in, and I did not even beat it

Played it once and got scared so hard I fainted. I got panick attacks from this game so yeah it was pretty scare. Such a shame it was cancelled.

17BioShock

If you saw the scenes with Sander Cohen, Dr. Steinman, and Suchong and the Puppy(an audio diary), you would be freaked out. Not to mention big daddy fights. But Sander Cohen having you photograph corpses of his students for his 'masterpiece' is just creepy. - Razor79

The ambiance is VERY creepy, and then add that creatures can appear behind you seemingly out of nowhere and that you can step on a metal tray and it makes you think something is creeping up behind you, etc. Just the whole game is very creepy.

This is one of my favorite games, but it isn't too scary. It just has a few terrifying scripted events, that's all.

I have played the demo and that demo is scariest demo ever first person games are freaky

18Silent Hill: Homecoming

That's a very good horror game with amazing story. I don't know why it's so underrated. Maybe because of some retards who never played it and then judged it..

Definitely very underrated horror game, I found it scarier than Silent 1,2,3, and 4. And the enemies very fantastic, very creepy.

Very scary you should play it if you love horror games very unique game very fun

An amazing game

19Five Night's at Freddy's 2

I find this game scarier than the first game. When I began this game, it became fun. I knew what to do because my brother played it. Then Toy Freddy came. He's easily the creepiest character in the game ( aside from the Puppet). I closed out of the game because he's sooo creepy. Love it and hate it.

Not frightening at all!

Will terrify you out of your wits, because the old animatronics and the new ones are there and you never know when they will pop up out of thin air and murder your face like crazy. The suspense is crazy and the jumpstart are sudden so you could probably faint after being attacked. You are paying for total horror when you buy this <:0

This isn't even scary! - Powerfulgirl10

20Five Nights at Freddy's 3

Fun game all new ways to be scared you can do more things and all new ways to be piped out by if you like hoping out games you will love this game

Eh its scary but I like the others better

Scariest game ever I played this game and screamed very very loud I did not make It to the end but I did my best.

What happened to the fluffy cute animals?

21Scary Maze Game

When my friend made me play this I hated him and gave him the cold shoulder for weeks, but I once saw a video of a guy who played this, and he punched his computer and broke it, hilarious!

The guy who punched the computer's reaction was hilarious. He punched the computer and he asked his friend why he made him play the game. He said that's not funny at all.

Even though I've never played this game, I heard that this will make you crap bricks. It's kind of annoying though, because just as soon as you reach the door..BAM! The exorcist girl's face pops out. It's like, just let me win, dangit! I can imagine that's what goes through the minds of gamers that play this, along with the idea of hiding in a corner and crying like a little girl because they didn't expect to see something so ugly. I don't know, but I'm not playing the game ever. Sorry.

By the time you're on Level 3, you start to get scared in case you die in the second half of the level, because there is that scary scream.

That's Reagan Macneil from The Exorcist.

22Resident Evil

Best game ever! and give me a lot of memory when I use to be scared of this game when I was 8 or 9 year old. - CatLeena14

The scariest in the entire series in my opinion. Plus I don't know if this is for REmake but that game was exceptional at what it set out to do and the additional scares from Lisa and the Crimson heads enhanced this creepy atmosphere while 4 is a good game, I really don't find it scary, at all!

In my opinion, this game was the most scariest game, and the hardest of the resident evil series. Have to survive on a limited amount of ammunition against insanely strong zombies.

Soon as them zombie dogs jumped through the window I was gone. - wolphert

23Left 4 Dead

The Hunter zombie is one of the scariest. It crawls and jumps on you and tears out your insides. The Witch is also scary. She appears out of nowhere and scratches you up with her long black fingernails. Sometimes she's just sitting down with her back facing you. If you walk behind her she will look behind her back and attack you if she sees you.

The tank is so annoying and so is the dude with really long tongue - assassin23

It's not too scary because you mow down zombies very easily

Great game but not even remotely scary

It's a great game, but it's not that scary. - Powerfulgirl10

24Twisted Metal

I saw this and sweet tooth traumatized me more than any killer clown sightings I've ever seen it's so scary I have to wake up every 5 minutes when I go to sleep to look out the window and make sure that bastard clown isn't outside

Twisted Metal isn't scary.

All of the twisted metal games are not scary except twisted metal black
that game is big time scary - speed

25Resident Evil 5

Chris and Sheva are going on Missions that are deadly all the time this should be number one

Best game ever! - CatLeena14

26Ju-On: The Grudge Haunted House Simulator

It's based on the movie series, The Grudge. You walk through dark places and if you walk slow or remain in the same place, Kayako will appear before you and attack you. You have to get away otherwise it's game over. But Kayako will appear out of nowhere without warning like if you open a door, her hand will come out and grab your arm and you can see part of her face from the partially open door. And her son, Toshio will appear too. If you're close to clearing a level, Kayako will fall from the ceiling, crawl towards you, and attack you and you have to get away otherwise it's game over. At the end of the game, your character will eventually die because she saw Kayako.

When I was little, I played this game with my family. I almost died. SO SCARY.

The Grudge girl give me a creep! - CatLeena14

27Resident Evil: Revelations 2

My big brother has this game!

Best game ever! - CatLeena14

28Five Nights at Freddy's 4

Guys, this game should be at least in the top 10. Because it's the hardest game for me. I'm so scared that when I close a door, my hands are shaking too much! - RobinAung

Second most creepiest game in the series because of the horror upgrade for all of them bonnie is the creepiest because shes the second biggest and never blinks

Scariest of the series

Utterly terrifying, should be ahead of game 1

29Condemned Criminal Origins

Close Quarters combat has never felt so visceral. It's a great game and needs to be higher up on the list.

30The Evil Within

Oh my lord where do I start! It has the best story, best jump scared, and the best horror game ever exist. - CatLeena14

The enemies in this game were scary as heck.. There were some really messed up places and pretty tense atmosphere. This game was also HARD as heck. It had some psychological horror that messed with your head but this game was good at scaring you through the imminent danger you were in. This game had my heart pounding whenever I was about to face the Keeper, because I knew what was coming, that guy is terrifying. Don't even get me started on Laura (the spider lady). Excellent survival horror game, with excellent level design and some of the freakiest enemies I've ever seen in gaming.

This must be the most underrated horror game of all time. This game was terrifying, and I'm not easily scared. While it's true that not ALL of the chapters were scary, most of them were. Big time. This game had some serious atmosphere and horrific environments, and some of the scariest monsters in gaming. The demonic bloody spider lady is the scariest thing ever, and the Keeper is a close second. It's a true survival horror experience.

Without a doubt the most creepy and terrifying video game ever made.

31One Late Night

It's scary until you have to hunt for batteries.. then it just becomes annoying until you find all of them

The black widow (I think it's her name) made me scream run away

Its scary and spooky - spodermanfan1000

33F.E.A.R
34Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth

Hail Cthulhu, lord of madness!

Cut out cthulus heart and eyes what do you get.. Terraria

35Eyes: The Horror Game

This seems like a true horror game when it tells me to run I go the wrong way and I die that scares the @#! % out of me it's so fun and scary

Whenever it says run I panic and don't know where to go

The sound of the ghost is creepy

The ghoul is so SCARY

36System Shock 2

From the very beginning, it's a foreboding atmosphere. Trying to equip a weapon when the hybrids come, near impossible

It boggles me that it isn't higher on the list.. The atmosphere is fantastic.

37Radiation's Halloween Hack

This game was pretty disturbing, what with the zombie apocalypse and mind exploration portions. It tells a surprisingly detailed alternative 'what if? ' story for the aftermath of EarthBound while still creeping me out. It may be a very short and barely finished game, but it deserves to be in the top 50.

The most disturbing thing about the game by far is its backstory.

DAMN.. This actually legitimately scared the s*** out of me

38The Suffering

How are the Suffering games not on the list?

40Until Dawn

At first the prank puts you in suspense then it gets dark and gory by the wendigos. Way scarier than amnesia. Its like outlast but in a telltale way ( and its not ) and your in a group. Its kinda sad too especially when emily saw the decay corpse of beth

Not the scariest I've played but definitely one of my favorites - Jonerman

42Vapour

Why isn't this game at least in the top 10? Its really less scary than Amnesia games, Majoras mask (seriously) And Mario Paint! - Ivysaur

43The Thing

A licensed game that doesn't suck? I'm in.

45Power Rangers: Lightspeed Rescue

Level 2: Falling into dam waterfall and die

46Fallout 3

I used to grab a companion just not to get scared. Especially places like Deathclaw cave and metro stations.

The dunwitch building is one of the creepiest things I've ever seen. I was in a metro tunnel, I saw a baby's stroller, went near it, and this loud crying/screaming sound filled my headphones. Mini heart attack..
The metro tunnels are creepy as hell! The feeling of being alone in the wasteland, feeling like something, somewhere is watching you.
Oh god, those vaults! Almost as creepy as the dunwich building. Especially vault 108.

When you are in a dark vault or metro with ghouls coming out at you from out of nowhere you will know what I mean.

While not an official horror game, the dunwitch building was a dead space styled scare fest, and my first visit to vault 108 nearly game me a heart attack and I haven't yet gone back

47Penumbra: Black Plague

THIS is the scariest game ever! - farckashkun

No guys, I cannot accept it, why this, the very first Horror game that I've knowed, is only 58? The Penumbra trilogy ( expecially this) and the Total conversion chapters ( theorically sequels/prequels fan games) is one of the most eerie games ever, it make me feel strange inside, but at the same time scared, the atmosphere and the soundtracks are so 'archaic', definitely should be on the top tens. - FrancescoBertini

Just wasnt expecting what was coming. and there where werid nosies
