The summer season is the perfect time to dive into some creepy-crawlies, some stomach-churning grotesque sights. When the weather’s sweltering, there’s nothing nicer than staying inside a cool room with a gripping tale of ghosts, goblins, and other horrific beasts coming to haunt your dreams. The final summer month of August is the perfect time to dim the lights and get seriously creeped out. From psychological thrillers that leave you thinking for days, to frenetic fire fights prompted by supernatural forces, these horror games promise to pull you into their shadowy depths, a good distraction from the endless sun. (Please note, this list is by no means comprehensive, and for more horror recommendations, you’ll have to follow along our usual coverage.)
