Horror Games

Twelve games built to unsettle you, from jump-scare classics to slow-burn dread. Five Nights at Freddy's and its Sister Location follow-up, Granny's creaking house, the Backrooms' endless yellow corridors and Slenderman's eight pages are all here, alongside Resident Evil 3 and Doom 3 for horror with a weapon in hand. Fears to Fathom and Buckshot Roulette are the slower, stranger ones.

What to know

  • Most of these rely on sudden loud audio. Headphones make them better and much worse at the same time.
  • Granny and the Five Nights at Freddy's games are about patience and listening, not reflexes. Rushing is how you die.
