A Tense Escape Room, a 90s Horror Tribute and More in November’s Horror Bytes [Safe Room Podcast]
Before diving into this month’s edition of Horror Bytes, please give last week’s debut of The Inventory (our monthly review show) a listen.
Another month, another edition of Horror Bytes, our segment highlighting short indie horror experiences! This month we have recruited returning friend of the show, Chris White, who brought Neil and me a healthy stable of horror titles. From surviving the prowling antagonist of Suffer The Night to the drill maintenance madness of The Other Side, this month’s picks highlight various sinister and spooky titles.
And as always, we ask that if you can do so, support the developers behind these games through their itch.io, steam, or Patreon pages.
The shelter keeps you safe from the horrors of the outside world. So naturally, you must break out. The Other Side combines a tense atmosphere with drill simulator mechanics to make for a taut slice of horror.
Uninvited guests are bad enough, now imagine one wants to kill you! Try to survive your killer guest while uncovering the mystery behind a strange computer game that showed up on your doorstep.
Camping in the bug-infested wilderness is already bad enough, but now you have to contend with *something* that patrols the particular woods you have decided to set up camp in. Try to survive the night while finding your missing significant other.
Common car troubles are exacerbated by the surreal and strange town filled with mannequins and ghostly apparitions that fill it. Try to solve cryptic riddles to uncover the mysteries of our protagonist’s past.
Safe Room is a weekly horror video game discussion podcast with new episodes every Monday on iTunes/Apple, Sticher, Spotify, Google Podcasts, and Linktree for additional streaming services.

It’s always a cruel summer, but 2026 is about to get crueler.
To blow off steam, the Losers hit the road to visit all the towns in Stephen King’s Dominion. Derry, Castle Rock, Ludlow, Boulder, the list goes on. They’ve got miles to drive and so many (scary) sights to see. At the end of the day, though, they have to ask themselves: Which one’s the best? And, more importantly, what does “best” mean in this context?
