What’s more, the genre is coming into yet another burst of promising titles: Resident Evil 4 and Dead Space are getting remakes next year, while Scorn, The Callisto Protocol, Saturnalia, The Dark Pictures Anthology: The Devil in Me, Alan Wake 2, Signalis, and Slitterhead are only a few of the dozens of games we’ll be seeing this year and the next. Whether it’s a dark, empty room waiting for me to step inside, a creature chasing me down labyrinthine corridors, or the mere sense that I’m being watched, horror games, by definition, can demand a lot from the player.Įven so, there’s nothing quite like the thrill of a well-crafted horror game, whether it’s geared toward survival, jump scares, or creeping terror. I grew up reading Edgar Allan Poe and Stephen King, and have had many nights of sleep after watching Pet Sematary and the Goosebumps TV show. On one hand, I love exploring the genre in all of its forms. I’ve always had a conflictive relationship with horror.
