Awesome Horror Games to Play on Halloween

[@TheGameChasers]

I love Parasite Eve. The mood and atmosphere is incredible

[@Ronldbx6]

That's why I love the series so much as well. I can't wait for them to make the next game on nextgen consoles. The 3rd birthday came out in 2010.

[@musicotaku666]

sadly the 2nd one sucks..... didnt play 3rd birthday, the first is one of my all time favourite. where japanese games had really weight, now japanese games are too westernized.

[@musicotaku666]

sorry in my opinion it sucked compared to the first, as a survival horror i didnt like it either.

[@Ronldbx6]

I haven't played PE2, only played PE1, and The 3rd birthday. It looks like RE to me. Does it kinda play like it too with tank controls? It's funny how the gameplay changed with each new entry to the series. They all play very different from each other.

[@musicotaku666]

it just lacks in everything, the gameplay lacks for survival horror, there are stupid enemies and sections, the music isnt so great as the first, the story is not so nice like its predecessor etc. etc. etc. it lacks in everything compared to the first one. the survival horror aspect didnt fit.

[@OlaGamerGirl]

Great list I've played most of them, but my top 3 horror games will always be dino crisis, clock tower and parasite eve2! Can't stop replaying them until this day.

[@Jaliyl773]

Your actually one of the guys who inspired me to make my own channel. Im gonna play resident evil tonight.

[@AlphaOmegaSin]

Heck man I'm honored to have you said that. Also you're doin the right thing. Resident Evil is always epic to play through :D

[@Jaliyl773]

AlphaOmegaSin I'm gonna play the PS3 directors cut with chris

[@AlphaOmegaSin]

Jaliyl Bruessard Ah, goin the more hardcore route. I like his game but Jill has always been my favorite character in the series plus she has Barry show up in her story arc so it's always a must for me

[@Jaliyl773]

AlphaOmegaSin I play hers more so I actually trying show Chris some love.

[@dakotagau]

AlphaOmegaSin I SHIP BARRY AND JILL... Fuck chris... lol

[@serducho11]

"I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream" and "Sanitarium" on PC are great. And that video was cool.

[@Chubbz620]

Yes! Parasite eve was one of my favorite games when I was young. Never beat sadly but definitely want to play it again

[@kamikaze9699]

Parasite Eve is so awesome mostly because the book it was based off of was pretty good- the science was fairly well researched, which made immersion that much better. Its evolution theme has this sort-of spiritual vibe that works.

[@smeepUCA]

just replayed Silent Hill 2 last week.. greatest survival horror game ever

[@AlphaOmegaSin]

Truly is in the top 10 for me

[@Saint3188]

Even now nothing comes close.

[@greenlantern223]

Love Luigi Mansion!! Playing the Dark Moon sequel for 3ds right now!! Great Video!!

[@Gutigwolfe]

Splatterhouse was so underated. Literally IGN rated it like a 3 but its definately worth 7 or 8.

[@AlphaOmegaSin]

ign.com go there for the news and skip the reviews. That's been my thoughts on the sites for years now XD

[@Gutigwolfe]

AlphaOmegaSin Some of their reviews arent bad because i agree with them, then theres games like splatterhouse they had to have been on crack because even the average player review is a 7, I just think the guy reviewing it is a dumbass, even having the original 3 games makes the game pay for itself.

[@leon30517]

AlphaOmegaSin Can't spell Ignorant without IGN

[@imawesome11xx]

Parasite Eve was one of the first PS1 games I own and I still love it to this day

[@montywh]

+1 for the PE as well. always happy to meet fellow fans of the game. not to toot my own horn, but i'm pretty much like the biggest nerd of that game, having read the original novel, and own the not-as-good movie just for the sake of owning it, lol

[@Ronldbx6]

What did you think about the 3rd Birthday?

[@montywh]

pretty much what some reviewers say, it's good for an action game, but it's really got nothing to do with the whole franchise aside from using the characters

[@TheImprintsIllusion]

This list has actually further inspired me to continue working on my survival-horror adventure game. Thanks for all this, Alpha!

[@vvolfflovv]

The community needs more videos like this. I'm just getting into Fatal Frame 2.

[@AlphaOmegaSin]

Dude that's the best one of the entire series as far as I'm concerned so that's definitely worth owning and playing

[@vvolfflovv]

AlphaOmegaSin Thanks man. I actually just made a vid with some creepy sound effects over it. Not sure it would be your cup of tea but it definitely worked out amazing :) Rock on though.

[@ShyBiiteVT]

I actually bought Parasite Eve today for $20. Remembered this video when I saw it. Thanks for the recommendation.

[@Lumpyrox1412]

Got Shadows of the Damned and Splatterhouse. Never played SotD even though i bought it but i did play Splatterhouse and i LOVED it, but it got really difficult at the first major 'boss' which was that one armed demon thing with the club. I never ever beat that thing..so i sort of put it down. I'll think about playing it again. I think i might finally boot up SotD thanks to this video. Thanks AOS for reminding me i had this on my shelf~ Sounds gore-tastic!

[@AlphaOmegaSin]

You'll love the fuck out of it man. The game plays like RE4 but has nothing but a super dark sense of humor in everything from the environment to the characters themselves and shit tons of gore to boot. So yeah totally worth a playthrough for sure

[@WFoong98]

SoTD is already good when it said "A SUDA51 TRIP" right the fuck in the cover! Also what about Killer 7?

[@KimiTheV]

Thanks for the suggestions. Dino Crises was what got me into horror survival games. Silent Hill 2 made me obsessed with the genre. It's still one of my favorite games in my collection :D I remember playing Parasite Eve as a kid. That rat part freaked me out. I still remember it til this day.

[@TheLunarLegend]

Little Red Riding Hood Zombie BBQ... brb gonna see if any gamestops are open at 1AM.

[@JuniorD1975]

Great suggestions. Eternal Darkness on the Gamecube was a superb survival horror. Loved how u went back in history to play different characters etc. The game also introduced the sanity effect. Ahead of its time. Would love to see a HD update/reboot or follow up x

[@Leonsunshine]

DEADLY PREMONITION is a perfect game for halloween :)

[@AlphaOmegaSin]

Heck man that game is perfect for every holiday.....isn't that right Zack?

[@kefkapalazzo1092]

AlphaOmegaSin i actually love dyno crisis 3 XD.beside the end of the last boss.......

[@Leonsunshine]

AlphaOmegaSin That's right YORK.

[@Leonsunshine]

AlphaOmegaSin I mean Alpha Omega Sin! hehe love that game I think it is one of the most amazing games in existance.

[@BloodWraith777]

Odium AKA Gorky 17, you can get it on Steam right now for about a dollar. It's like turn based survival horror, you really need to ration ammo and supplies and think out battles carefully. The main characters in your party (and the game in general) kind of remind me of the UBCS/Resident Evil 3 (like Carlos, Mikhail, and Nicholai). Then you got your guest characters that come and go. It's pretty challenging and you always flip when you get to a supply crate, cause shits scarce.

[@TheSynrgy1987]

Actually just got Silent Hill on PSN downloading it as we speak along with House of the Dead 4, can't wait to play that :D need to check out the Dino Crisis series, but i've only got 3 so far lol, great list too, so many of the games in this list I still want and need to play. I'd also forgot about some of them like the Otogi games shit i got a lot to get through lol.

[@Ronldbx6]

definitely check out Parasite Eve. you won't regret it. You might just end up getting hooked on the series.

[@Zivillyn]

You have no idea how happy I was to see Parasite Eve on here. That may be my absolute favorite game on the PS1.

[@TaoPhysiques]

- Yakuza Dead Souls - Rule of Rose - Deadly Premonition - American Mcgee's Alice - The Wolf Among Us - Left 4 Dead - Dead Rising ^ Just some ones I named from the top of my head

[@AlphaOmegaSin]

I approve of all those choices

[@TaoPhysiques]

AlphaOmegaSin Alpha, yo you should do a review on some survival horror games you have in your collection and do a video on it. Like how you did some videos of the Resident Evil games you have and named some of the ones people should play. Just recommending this and thought it would be fine. :D

[@IXthCircle]

Sweet, with the inclusion of "Alice", I think I'll check out the others. Heard that The Wolf Among Us is great, and Rule of Rose seems to suit my style. Since you like "Alice", I recommend to you The Path. It's a psychological horror game and is only $10 on Steam. Also, Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines is always an excellent choice. Shame I don't know too many other games like the ones I've mentioned. You?

[@TaoPhysiques]

ShadowFoxZorua Heard of the Vampire game (never played it, granted). I will check out the Path when I can. Check The Devil Inside and Amnesia: The Dark Descent. The Devil Inside is an old game, but I like it.

[@MadPanicGaming]

All great games, thanks for mentioning Little Red Riding Hood though, thought I was the only person who loved that game.

[@civilwarfare101]

Ah Parasite Eve, I really need to get back to playing that.

[@AlphaOmegaSin]

Do it!

[@metalbawkses6192]

Nice list Alpha, especially Dino Crisis which got me into survival horror and the resi chronicles that started me in that franchise :D However, I'd have to say that the siren series, especially #2 for me was the creepiest shite I've played through.

[@emmathepony]

parasite eve is a great hybrid of the classic RE games , FF and vagrant story

[@StephenTYS]

It was first runthrough of Deadly Premonition and Dead Space 1 for me this halloween. Also I LOVE how you gave props to Umbrella Chronicles. I adore that game and I always just hear people giving it shit.

[@DedAlexFive]

Great games, dude. Props for PE and Dino Crisis. I replayed a sadly forgotten but one of my favorite PS1 games just for Halloween, called Nightmare Creatures. Ever heard of it? If not I highly recommend it, Im sure you'll find it interesting. Its a mix between a horror and a hack n slash game with really great atmosphere and neat monsters. Also Metal during boss battles. Always a plus. But controls take a little to get used to and theres a weird gimmick where you basically have to kill monsters to not die of poisoning, wich it can get frustrating, and a pretty bad boss. Check it out if you can!

[@AlphaOmegaSin]

Dude yeah Nightmare Creatures is pretty damn sweet, never hear folks mention that all too often. Heck either game for that matter

[@MrDmoney156]

Nightmare Creatures was my shit back in the day on the Nintendo 64 :-)

[@DedAlexFive]

***** No problem! Hell Im just happy that people still remember those games haha. Hope you'll like it.

[@HedMunky84]

I'm stoked you mentioned Parasite Eve. I love PE. One of PSone's truly greatest.

[@timetravel6993]

Thanks for making this!

[@AlphaOmegaSin]

Hell man no problem, I love getting people to check out this sorta shit so it's always fun to make these kinds of videos

[@MouseKeyboardPlayer]

Dead Space, Haunting Ground, Fatal Frame, and oh yeah Forbidden Siren 2 is also pretty sweet Alpha.

[@Innateight]

My man gets a thumbs up just for having PE on the video pic.

[@AlphaOmegaSin]

One of the best games on PS1 hands down for me

[@kingceddygaming351]

AlphaOmegaSin what is your favorite ps2 game of all i asked because ps2 is my favorite system still have one mines is pacman world 2

[@Innateight]

Agreed 100%. PE one and two are probably my favorite games on the PS1.

[@AlphaOmegaSin]

Innateight You got some damn good taste then I'd say

[@Innateight]

You got some good taste yourself. Especially since you threw up Dino Crisis and Shadows of the Damned as well haha.

[@jamesemory8781]

Glad you got the word out about Condemned. That first game is really great.

[@wawowhead]

I loved PE. Still have my black label copy of PE1 and PE2.

[@valcristPL]

Major kudos for including Parasite Eve, more people need to play that game.

[@lopido775]

I miss Parasite eve series and the blood omen series.

[@AlphaOmegaSin]

The Blood Omen series genuinely doesn't get much attention. Was actually thinking about getting Defiance on Steam since it's on sale right now

[@lopido775]

Blood omen 2 is a sick ass game. I am playing resident evil revelations tonight. Bought it months ago. Fun game

[@AlphaOmegaSin]

lopido It truly is, I loved it on 3DS but man the console versions definitely are where it's at

[@gaminggod5249]

I am a huge fan of the first Legacy Of Kain......the rest of them were cool but something about that first game kicked my ass.....

[@creekandseminole]

Good call on Sweet Home. Its actually really creepy with the haunting 8-bit music. I'd also like to mention these scary games: Eternal Darkness - GameCube and the recent PT trailer if no one here has played it yet. That's the most frightening thing I've seen in forever.

[@Sonic-ps3ub]

I would HIGHLY recommend Corpse Party!

[@TheDeathWombat]

lol ironically I am playing that right now

[@leon30517]

TheDeathWombat You have the biggest balls of all

[@Sonic-ps3ub]

Why get a mountain bike when I can run?

[@TheDeathWombat]

Why run when you can walk on all 4s. I think that's more of a workout right?

[@Kurtonator]

I originally overlooked Shadows of the Damned but was planning on buying it, thanks AOS, you've just sealed the deal, I'm gonna purchase Shadows of the Damned!

[@SkepticGamer]

Also happy halloween dude!

[@AlphaOmegaSin]

Happy Halloween :D

[@playbychris1]

my favorite 2 games for the playstation 1 were and still are parasite eve and silent hill! Great choices dude!

[@vvolfflovv]

Happy Halloween Alpha. Game the fuck on!

[@AlphaOmegaSin]

Happy Helloween \m/

[@Lohreck]

Great picks! and some more on my buying list... Shadow of the Damned and Lollipop Chainsaw are one of my most favorite games last gen. Splatterhouse was also great, didn't know that you can unlock the old games. I should go back to it i guess :D

[@ninestrumentals9]

A Halloween episode ! Hell fuck yea !

[@Nix_Abyss]

Dude I love AOS he knows what he is talking about every time, whether it's music,games, or anything really. I love all of these games some of them were trips down memory lane hahaha. Ugh, off topic, but man his collection makes me green with envy X"D.

[@BlazingAceNelson]

Happy Halloween to my favorite gaming metalhead! Get down on some Parasite Eve and Shadow Hearts! #WorkHardGameTheFuckOn

[@IgnatiusAlpha]

Thank you for mentioning Dino Crisis. I always enjoyed it and think it's underrated. I have to check out the Otogi games and Shadows of the Damned. Shadowgate on the NES is still the scariest game I've ever played. Uninvited too. If you want to scar someone for life, let them play either one of those when they're 7 years old.

[@sonicsega1699]

is doom considered any type of horror? that game scared the shit outta me when i was a youngster. doom64 anyway

[@nobodyinterestingyou]

Hahaha you're not alone when a was five years old, I freak out at my friend's house during a playing session and In my teens year doom 3 nearly broke me with all those freaking jumps scares xD.

[@Shrek_Holmes]

only doom 3. though its not that scary

[@evanstrange2876]

I think the third game is like horror

[@IRNatman]

Coincidentally, I just finished Doom 64 again a few days ago. Doom 64 is amazing. I love the original Dooms, don't get me wrong, but from a horror stand point they're laughable. Doom 64 on the other hand.. Play it in a dark room in the middle of the night alone. That shit still puts me on edge! It starts feeling like the game is fucking with you, like it really wants you dead. Love it! Doom 3, yawn... Doom 64 is the real Doom 3 to me. :)

[@KluorpivhlanderP]

I grow up with Doom 2, one of my favorite games and soundtracks of it, genre is survival horror game although of course its not scary unlike the PSX version of Doom which is actually quite scary and unsettling to play, since it has really dark horror ambient music and pitch black maps compared to the original early Doom games.

[@jonweng]

i loved parasite steve and condemned criminal oranges

[@OmegaCaldereroid]

Loved and played all of them except for luigis mansion and zombies ate my neighbors, awesome post as always brohthah! Omegas rock!

[@Goshujinsama17]

I had completely forgotten about Otogi until this vid. I absolutely loved it. The visuals, the gameplay, everything. Honestly after playing Otogi it made me hate what they had done to Shinobi even more.

[@BaikenAndEggs]

AlphaOmegaSin, you should do a let's play of Parasite Eve. Amazing game! Glad you talked about it.

[@chrisludwig5441]

very nice selection of games!!! parasite eve 1 is the shit, one of my all time favorites. zombies ate my neighbors is a true classic and now I need to get haunting xD

[@SaintSaladin2194]

I've had Shadow of the Damned for a while and never played it haha. You've made me finally throw it in and play it!!!

[@SpaceManSpliffz]

Great suggestions Alpha, currently I'm playing Alien:Isolation, The Evil Within, and Last of Us Remastered so my scary games are full for now haha :)

[@MrGamefreak197]

I'm glad to see someone else has played Splatterhouse besides me. Such an underrated gem \m/.

[@kidrookz1]

Great video, condemned was very well done, kept me on my toes the whole play through making me paranoid at each noise or movement at the corner of my eyes. Amazing nonetheless

[@1996cloudstrife]

Parasite Eve, was one of my favorite games as a child, I loved it! But I could never remember the name, Thank you Senpai Alpha! X)! Will now be playing shit ton of 1&2!

[@Ronldbx6]

My story was kinda different. I never played the game in my childhood but I remember this blond chick with a gun and a weird looking red thing from The 3rd Birthday's Teaser trailer back in 2008. I was like "This girl looks familiar" then when they showed flash backs from PE1 & PE2 I was like "! I remember this game!" So I started watching playthroughs of PE1 and I brought the 3rd Birthday in 2011. I eventually brought PE1 on PSN. Now i'm in love with the series and can't wait for them to make the next game.

[@AlyssaWhite88]

I love so many of the games you mentioned. Plus, I adore your badass jack'o'lantern

[@NormireX]

I would recommend Nightmare Creatures on Dreamcast. Also lets not forget classics like Kid Chameleon and Decap Attack.

[@BluebomberX13]

I love the Clock Tower series, they have that perfect Halloween atmosphere.

[@MartyJames23]

Glad you showed "Haunting" on sega. Missed playing that since high school. btw great choice on horror games. I will look into those.

[@imbisoul]

Nice suggestions I have most of these games except a few. I will definitely look into getting Splatterhouse and Shadows of the Damned.

[@4390BigBoss]

Oh man the music from the Snatcher opening theme in the background *chills*

[@LeftoverCultureReview]

Glad you brought up Splatterhouse, I picked it up because it was just the easiest and cheapest way to get Splatterhouse 1 - 3... But I seriously had a blast with it. Think they were really faithful to the source material.

[@AlphaOmegaSin]

They truly were faithful to it. Same premise, your chick is in trouble now kill everything and anything in a very over the top brutal fashion in a horror setting and get her back. The added bonus of unlocking the older games (Which many new games make you pay for that shit so it's refreshing honestly) was icing on an already mega badass cake

[@MechriotOfficial]

We wish we could come over to your place and play video games! You rock dude! Everyone of these was fracking AWESOME!

[@videogameobsession]

Nice list man. My top Halloween games which I played this year; Ghouls 'N Ghosts (Gen), Costume Quest 2 (PS3), ZAMN (SNES), Altered Beast (PSN), Pinball Arcade (Elvira's Scared Stiff, Monster Bash, Creature from the Black Lagoon, Haunted House), House of the Dead (Dreamcast), Devil's Crush (TG-16)

[@CStove]

Added a few of these to my Amazon wish list so I won't forget. Thanks for the recs!

[@ClassicContagious]

Glad to see Luigi's mansion getting some love. Also Eternal Darkness is pretty damned freaky.

[@DreadnoughtDT]

Wow, you listed pretty much every horror-themed game I love.

[@ModernFataliT]

I always enjoying playing Haunting Ground and the Onimusha games around Halloween.

[@swat2555]

Ah man. I never played the SNES version, but I was just playing the American Clock Tower 1 for the PS1 earlier today. That game still freaks me the fuck out today. Scissorman is just an awesome horror villain. The sound of his scissors snipping while he's chasing you down those long hallways, the sound of them getting closer and closer while you frantically look for a place to hide, it's so freakin' intense. It's definitely one of my favorite horror games.

[@naturaldivision8779]

Awesome picks dude, ton of epic classics. I'd also recommend the fatal frame series, which were pretty damn scary first time playing them, and had awesome stories as well. Honestly though I recently got hooked again on Zelda Ocarina of Time, playing it on my android device, and am finding it hard atm to play anything else, even if it is Halloween lol.

[@layzee510]

I was watching this waiting for you to mention Fatal Frame as that's my game of choice for this Halloween :)

[@NOCTURNALCURVES]

LOVE Parasite Eve, and STILL playing Koudelka since you recommended it. Really have to finish that. Have a happy Halloween!

[@Nackols]

Luigi's mansion is awesome! I remember playing it back in the days and I didn't really like it, but then I recently picked it up and I really enjoy it! :D

[@Chrisjb1983]

Parasite Eve.

[@bjmgraphics617]

Scare me plenty! I love to play a horror game in the dark, late at night and during a thunderstorm. RLH! Run Like Hell for the Xbox 360. Phantasmagoria for the PC. Sanity's Requiem for the Game Cube. Zombie Ate My Neighbors is hard but good. Quake 1 is scary. For a real scare, watch a horror movie, go to your game console and load your favorite horror game, take acid and hope for a bad trip and play the game non-stop.

[@CrimRui]

Honestly, I would love to see more reviews from you, especially some older games. Parasite Eve is so awesome. Everytime I hear about it it makes wanna reply it for the 10th time.

[@chrismcauley7945]

The enthusiasm this guy has is inspiring

[@316whatupz]

Zombies Ate My Neighbors (agree with AOS here), House of the Dead 2, and Gauntlet Dark Legacy (just got done playing it) are games I recommend for Halloween season. Great list, AOS.

[@NefariousDreary]

Your taste in video games is Godly.

[@Sceptical_Giraffe]

Thanks man, now i know there's a few games I should add to my collection :D

[@MariahJx]

Awesome recommendations Alpha ^.^! I have a couple to share that i've been playing in october - Haunting Ground, Clock Tower 3, The Evil Within which i still have yet to finish, Resident Evil 2 and Fatal Frame 4 (Finally got a working english version).

[@NeroBaelside13]

I'm gonna check out Shadows of the damned because of you. I've been playing Nightmare creatures 2 all night myself.

[@Jim26D]

Hell yeah I'm glad you have mention to haunting . Polterguy I always thought looked like the bully from the doug cartoon.anyway that game was a blast

[@eternallyconfusedneveraware]

I absolutely adore the Clock Tower series (although 2 and 3 were kinda off). I love the 'I can't even fight back, I have to run away' idea. But definitely I love 'Haunting Ground' the most. It's definitely one of my favourite games, maybe even my most favourite out of any game I own. I don't know why I love it so much. I just think it was an amazing game. Not to mention Daniella was the best stalker in the entire game.

[@killerdude93]

Just when i was getting ready to play horror games tonight, i see this video at least your recommendations will help me choose which to play tonight

[@MrCalverino]

I wish more people would mention Parasite Eve. The game is epic as fck set in modern day New York. I listen to the soundtrack to this day

[@littlegamer1268]

Love your videos man. Watching this one while playing the evil within great horror game

[@ShavedBadger]

I hear snatcher in the background, that makes me happy. You should also try haunting ground, and rule of rose.

[@SoUtHMeMpHis]

Can't wait for your 2019 list of games and movies ‼

[@Silvergun_Raven]

Glad to see another fan of the Otogi series. Those were developed by From Software :D

[@gottfriedosterbach3907]

I have a feeling the pumpkin isn't on the porch because his house and possibly car would get seriously egged etc. It might be cool, but it isn't the best idea to put that out unless you want to see the trick side of the holiday usually involving minor levels of vandalism. Also, thanks for the cool game recommendations. Interesting games, most of which I am unfamiliar.

[@tunedelaghetto4560]

As soon as I saw the splatterhouse cover I instantly remembered manhunt on PS2. That game was just too much especially since I was in middle school when it came out lol

[@mileskilo5897]

I'm surprised you didn't show off the F.E.A.R. games, actually. Considering the PS3 copies of F.E.A.R. and F.E.A.R. 2 were right behind you in the earlier episodes.

[@srcheddar]

Oh yes, Silent Hill. I've played a lot of games from this saga but the first one...my favourite forever.

[@ShadowRealmful]

PE sounds awesome. I'm going to play it as soon as I can. Happy Halloween Alpha!!

[@xdestradox]

Love most of the games your pimping, also gotta love Eternal Darkness.
