Don’t fancy heading out for to one of the many Halloween parties tonight? Then stay in, power up your game machine and freak yourself out with these games.
Until Dawn
Remember how every 90s slasher flick had a group of cardboard cut-out teen characters? Until Dawn has them too, and they're in your hands. Will you send these walking stereotype teens to their grave or help them fight to survive the night? Mr. Robot's Rami Malek stars in this horror fest set in the remotest of mountain lodges. The game's Butterfly Effect-style feature means every decision you make will potentially impact the ending.
Among the Sleep
Step into the nappy of a toddler. It's your second birthday. After a good bit of cake, mummy tucks you in and everything's good. And then it isn't. You wake up in the middle of the night with the lights out and your crib overturned. It's time to explore the vast expanses of your home in a bid to find mummy. Being under two-feet-tall changes one's perspective. That shape in front of you could be either desk chair or demon. Don't worry though - if things get too scary, you can always cling to Teddy, who offers wisdom, comfort and leadership.
Hang on.
Something’s coming.
Mummy... is that you?
Outlast
Step into the shoes of a reporter exploring a psychiatric hospital armed only with a battery-inefficient camera and notebook. You're not alone - there are plenty of homicidal patients who’d love to give you an exclusive interview: up close and personal. Your character can't fight, but he can run, jump and hide.
BioShock
After an awe-inspiring opening, dank claustrophobic underwater corridors, the eerie shrieks and mutterings of insane Rapture residents, and lumbering but lethal Big Daddies accompanied by creepy Little Sisters. Get us out of here. A remastered edition of this classic recently came out on console.
