Games in the Horror Genre

Horror is a genre in fiction and movies that plays on the audience’s fears to give viewers and readers a thrill. These films and books use scary images, creepy sounds and music, and build up a disquieting atmosphere to make you feel uneasy. Horror often makes use of social fears, such as encountering truly evil people, becoming a victim of malevolent supernatural forces, or being left all by yourself in a dark and unknown place. The genre has its own iconic figures as well, from memorable classics such as Frankenstein’s creature, Count Dracula, and the Devil, to more modern monsters such as Pennywise the evil clown, killer doll Chucky, and the faceless Slenderman.
