## Summary

The article recommends 13 horror games for Halloween, spanning intense survival horror, psychological scares and milder spooky adventures. It presents them as options for players across PC, consoles and VR, and highlights how established series are still finding ways to reinvent themselves.

Among the examples are Resident Evil Requiem, which balances frightening opening sections with later action and fan service, and Silent Hill Townfall, which moves the series to a Scottish island and shifts towards first-person stealth. Reanimal, from the studio behind Little Nightmares, offers a darker, more disturbing world, with two-player co-op easing some of its intensity.
