What game will you play for spooky October?

I'm trying to finish Emio: The Smiling Man, but other than that, the entire spooky month will be dedicated to playing Metaphor and LiS: Double Exposure (it releases later in the month).

I would also like to get into horror games but the sense of dread often becomes overpowering. I love story games and also horror movies, but it often gets overwhelming when you are the player in control. I quite enjoyed Alan Wake 2 though, so maybe there is hope. But games like RE2 Remake, SOMA, Callisto Protocol and Alien Isolation made me nope out. Not to mention the Dead Space Remake. Game looks stunning, but the first alien contact made me ALT+F4 > Uninstall > Hide this game :messenger_grinning_sweat:

Playing the Silent Hill 2 Enhanced Edition. Made it to the apartments last night. Forgot how confusing the layout is. Monster design, atmosphere, and sound is as stellar as I remember.

Going to give Amnesia Dark Descent a try. Its been sitting in my steam library for years and I've seen it come up a lot recently. Seems very well regarded so I'm going to give it a go.

Crow Country, probably. I can’t play anything demanding until the Pro arrives.

Also spooky month where I live:

Curious, by the way, how many of you play horror games at night, lights out, all alone? I'm too easily scared, so when that does happen, it never lasts and then I have to distract myself with something nice and have some lights on for a while.

Kinda wish it was different, but I'm also a little fond of my sensitivity in that matter because the horror games become really intense that way.

I...I think I finally found my way through the robots in Alien: Isolation. The Steam Deck OLED is making me stay up late into the night to keep on playing. I hate what it's doing to me during the day, but I LOVE my late-night gaming sessions!
 
Im playing until dawn remake. I loved the original and i get scared easily.

If i could afford it id be playing Silent hill 2 remake aswell.

I don't plan on playing horror games but I religiously watch Dan's Gaming horror month every year. Lot of laughter to be had lol, most of the time the game are so cheesy.

I play at night like you said and with headphones. Playing Silent Hill 2 Remake currently and the headphones make such a big difference. Been playing horror games since the original Resident Evil and they still have me on edge from time to time!

Going to get back into Alien: Isolation this week. Have some time to play before Black Ops 6 and new zombies.

I completely forgot that Clock Tower: Rewind is out on the 29th unless the date has changed. I think that will be my Halloween game this year.

Played Alan Wake II on XSX when it released, so I think I'll take a run through on PC since now I have a PC that'll max it out. Get the DLC as well, always down for more Bureau of Control.

Still going through Silent Hill 2 remake, currently just past the hospital and loving it.

I have a few indie titles on Steam to tackle that fit the bill, Mouthwashing for one.

I wish there was a horror game in the style of The Thing movie. Where the temperature and climate affects you too like in The Long Dark. That movie has a heavier atmosphere than Venus and could be insanely good if made by a studio like Creative Assembly.
 
I am currently playing Luigi's Mansion 3 on my Switch and Deadrising on my PS4. Mansion 3 I have never played before and I love the goofy scary tone it has. Deadrising I just booted up randomly and I'm just going through it again. Its too damn fun and I never play it the same way twice. One of my all time favorites.
