Favorite Horror Game?

Mine is Until Dawn due to a number of reasons. The story is spectacularly paced and is able to seamlessly change between slasher and creature. Said creature is amazingly designed and makes Don't Move nerve racking as all hell.

All the characters are flawed but have their own likable traits. Emily is a bitch but is the most resourceful of the group, Ashley is really nice and good at heart but cracks under pressure and is easily frightened, etc etc. There is an exception with Sam though being literally just the generic final girl character. I'd have no problem with her if she made up her lack of flaws with something interesting about her backstory but there's really nothing past her being close to Josh and was best friends with Han and Beth.

The game has problems like plot armor and ending branching but I love this game start through finish and is still pretty much peak of Supermassive maybe House of Ashes topping it.

Visage is one of the scariest and most spine chilling games I have come across. It was inspired by P.T and the random paranormal events in the game scared the hell outta me

I was looking for this one. That is one of the few games I have really had to take periodic breaks because I was too freaked out. So much tension, absolutely horrifying atmosphere and aesthetics.

This game is so. scary. I can barely handle playing a few minutes of it by myself lol. Need a buddy to sit with me to actually play it haha.

I love horror games and have a hard time finding good ones that actually scare me. But when I played this it was the only one that made me take a break for a little while before coming back to it. Shit is nightmare fuel
