First off I would like to share my own Jack-O-Lantern. It's my first time making a game character in my pumpkin and I would say for my first try it's not bad at all. Take a look.
So if you are looking to scare yourself tonight and want something different then the horror movie marathon then why not have a horror game marathon. To me a game is even scarier then a movie and I do love my horror movies. With a game you go at your own pace and I feel because you are the one making the decisions, that you feel more like you are the character. That the killer isn't coming after the young starlet on the screen that you are screaming at your tv to not go in the basement, THE KILLER IS IN THE BASEMENT!, but instead you feel the killer is coming after you. So you are the one deciding should I go in there? Is there a monster in there.
But here are my top 5 scary videogames to play this halloween.
5. Haunting Ground PS2
Picking the 5th one was hard because I knew I had to cut it off somewhere, but what game would hold it's spot. I decided to go with this game because it's not played like most survival horror games, as you will see there are a couple on my list that go away from the norm of survival horror games in some way. Decide to mix up the list a bit. In this game the only defense you have is to hide. You must search a mansion to find a way, which is like many survival horror games, but in this one you have no weapons, however you will eventually get a helpful, friendly dog who helps you get items and fend off enemies.
4. Fatal Frame PS2
A classic survival game with a twist. Based off of a couple Japanese myths you go in search of your brother in a haunted mansion with a camera as your only weapon. These enemies are different from most as they can chase you threw walls and objects.
3. Eternal Darkness for Gamecube
If this game is a giant mind fuck, then I don't know what is. The game worlds and storyline is creepy on it's own, but this game has a few more unique tricks up it's sleeve. It breaks the forth wall really making you believe that you just might be going insane. When your characters sanity goes down effects start happening such as the volume lowering with a volume bar entering on screen.
2. Resident Evil PSX
You knew this had to be on my list somewhere. Zombies are just creepy on themselves, then mix in some abnormal monsters in an abandoned mansion with a double crossing boss. The have some cheap scares that will make you jump out of your seat and even though the dialog is a bit cheesy at times, the story will keep you intrigued.
1. Silent Hill PSX
Even though I talk about Resident Evil a lot when I talk about horror games, but Silent Hill was the scariest game I've ever played. The world surrounding you quickly changes from a eerie ash falling atmosphere to a completely degrading world from the aftermath of a fire. The creatures you come across do not attack you in horde, but show up randomly sometimes giving you a warning and sometimes not. The game really messes with your head as you search for your missing daughter.
