The Best Video Games For Horror Movie Fans

Isolation ’s Xenomorph is a true monster: the player cannot defeat it, but rather evade and outsmart it, a task that becomes increasingly difficult as the AI-based Alien learns and adapts its behavior based on the player’s actions. The frequent need to re-evaluate one’s tactics under the constant threat of discovery makes for a truly terrifying game experience, one absolutely worth of Alien: Isolation ’s legendary titular monst


The perks Mettle of Man, Soul Guard and Borrowed Time and the add-on Styptic Agent all grant the Survivor using them Endurance under different conditions (the latter is exclusive to Bill Overbeck at first but is teachable). Work with your team, Survivors, and make those free hits co

That exact same kill is how the Nightmare carries out his Momento Mori in the game. It’s unclear why the developers chose that death as opposed to a death from 2010, but it’s a nice call back to the classical Fre


The Momento Mori that Freddy can perform in the game is directly inspired by the second movie in the franchise, A Nightmare On Elm Street 2: Freddy’s Revenge. Towards the end of the movie Freddy surprises the main character Jesse and stabs him through the b


Teen-skewing horror films like Scream and Halloween are a staple of the genre, and Until Dawn offers the perfect video game homage. Essentially Cabin in the Woods as a video game, Until Dawn follows a group of friends as they revisit the remote cabin where two of their group went missing the previous year. The night soon becomes a nightmare, and every little decision counts as the player assumes the role of each of the eight characters as they attempt to survive until morn


Both Oni and Spirit share the same realm and time-space in their lore. What relations or history they have together is unknown. Most people enjoy Japanese myths and culture, so it's interesting to see these Japanese-style paintings around the map. It begs the question of who was praying to an


While stealth can be crucial in a wide variety of titles, it behooves Killer and Survivor alike to be sneaky in Dead By Daylight . Sadly for the latter, only Killers get access to Undetectable, the game’s final positive sta


Fans of horror stories that gear toward a younger audience, such as Coraline and Goosebumps , are sure to enjoy Little Nightmares . The ultra-creepy puzzle-platformer follows a young child named Six as she attempts to escape The Maw, an aptly named ship that plays host to a variety of horrors. Though the main character and title skew younger, make no mistake: with underlying themes of cannibalism and speculated matricide, Little Nightmares is definitely not for kids . It is, however, a very fun and suitably spooky little game perfect for the Halloween season – and, to horror film fans’ delight, actually set for a television adaptation directed by Henry Selick , the director of Coraline and the much beloved The Nightmare Before Christm


In the purchasable outfit Surgeon of Slaughter, The Doctor wields a broken piece of medical equipment and scrubs in a way no patient wants to see. But again, it's the eyes that make this outfit the scariest of

Except with Mud Medusa, The Hag appears as if she's risen from the fiery depths of Hell herself as the devil's personal hitman send on a mission. The firey glow within her body makes it feel as though something secret cannot be contai


Endurance is the first Survivor-exclusive Status Effect. It allows the character to take no damage from the next attack, while still gaining the momentary speed boost from it (and the telltale white flash to alert the Killer to the status). Consider it a quick Get Out Of Jail Free c


It's hard to notice the detail and effort put into each map when the players are running for their lives or looking for prey at every corner. But the detail is there. There are many little objects and abandoned scenes within Dead By Daylight Achievements By Daylight maps that add to a killer's story or atmosph


This outfit is ranked the lowest but still made the list. Vanilla Huntress on her own is haunting, but that's just it. She's only haunting and eerie due to her humming and rabbit mask. Put the Solstice Devotee on and it's a whole other experie


The Oni feels threatening on his own because he is so large and sturdy, along with a weapon to match the same description. It's not just the idea of big and muscular, it's the overwhelming sturdiness and knowingly dangerous way about


The Nurse's Miss Smithson makes the top two because at the end of the day what most people are genuinely afraid of at night is a creepy lady in a dress. The trope is in various horror films and have been fed to the public since scary movies have exis


At first glance, the Dead Dawg Saloon looks nothing more sinister than a yeehaw-ing ghost town. And that's exactly what it will look like to everyone unless they stumble upon rooms they shouldn't be
