Halloween, the beloved day that's either filled with partying, trick or treating, or simply scaring the living daylights out of yourself and others, so with that in mind, which games deliver the goods?
We take a look at some of the scariest horror games around, and just why you should give them a try...or run a mile!
Let's go!
Until Dawn
Until Dawn is a bit of classic when it comes to horror games, and boy is this a bit of a heartpounder.
Without giving the story away, let's just say that 'someone' has a bone to pick with a group of friends, and you get to experience all of their dealings with said person.
Full of incredibly tense quick-time events, that are honestly edge of your seat terrifying, this game is like stepping into a homage to all the iconic horror movies.

Resident Evil 2 Remake
The remake of a huge fan favorite, Resident Evil 2 went down an abosute storm, and with good reason.
It's super scary!
One of the highlights of this game is that you are relentlessly pursued by some terrifying characters, who just love to menacingly wander over your way...and wipe you from the face of the planet.
If you can stay calm playing this, then we salute you soldier!

Alien: Isolation
This game is one of the scariest experiences out there.
You're not getting some invincible hockey masked goliath running around with a machete, but what you are getting is an Alien who is an expert at finding out exactly where you are.
You'll have to hide, dart to cover, and also avoid other terrifying beings, such as not-so-friendly androids - where's Bishop when you need him?
Graphics are amazing, and we'd say its pribably the most successful capturing of what makes the Alien franchise so incredible.
Highly recommend...just...don't panic!

Outlast
This game is as gruesome as it is tense. Definitely not for the faint hearted, as some of the scenes in this really stick with you.
We won't give much away here, but the game is played in first person as you step into a seriously horrendous house of horror, with some dastardly characters running the show.
Similar to Alien: Isolation you'll find yourself trying to evade a whole manner of unpleasant individuals, so things get very tense, very quickly.
Don't play around anyone who's squeamish!

The Evil Within 2
Out of all these Halloween games, The Evil Within 2 sort of feels like Resident Evil, so it's great for players familiar with the style of game.
What's brilliant about it though is that it combine all the tropes of horror games - chases, hiding, gore and so on, but throws in some heavily stylised moments, almost akin to the Hannibal TV Series.
It has some truly creepy moments, and is very cinematic - making it a full-on experience not to be missed.

The Last of Us: Part 2
Controversial! It may have seemingly split opinion, but you cannot deny that this is one surprisingly scary game.
Without ruining the experience, one enemy in particular enjoys quietly pursuing you, and then, confidently wandering over when you have your back turned.
We've had some heart-stopping moments in this game, most of them completely unscripted, which is what makes them so memorable.
Play this on the big screen with the volume up for maximum immersion!
