The best horror games are those that draw fear from within, rather than relying on typical "horror" tropes. Unlike horror movies or other scary content where the audience is more of an observer, horror games throw players directly into the experience. Theyre immersive, and they place players right in the shoes of someone whos being hunted or haunted. This level of immersion makes horror games uniquely impactful and leaves a stronger psychological mark on their players than any other type of horror media.
