It’s impossible not to love a haunted house. I dare you to even try it. Go ahead, walk into one and try not to have a good time. You won’t be able to fight off all that anxious glee, it’s best to just let it wash over you. The same goes for haunted house games, which tend to involve the confinement of a player in a single area — not necessarily a house, it could be an apartment or even a spaceship — that’s filled with horrors.
In a way, haunted house games are superior to actual haunted houses, because unlike the real thing, which takes place in public, these games can be enjoyed without putting your pride in any sort of danger. So when something jumps out at you causing you to emit a sound you didn’t think was humanly possible, it’s okay, because there’s no one around to make fun of you.
Now lock your door, turn off the lights and try your best to ignore the scraping sound at your window, because it’s time to take a look at five of the greatest haunted house games ever.
