While some might prefer heading out for costume parties and Halloween-themed events, nothing quite beats the pulse-pounding thrill of turning down the lights and immersing yourself in a good horror game during Halloween. Even if some of the best horror games are single-player, there are several that allow for multi-player! From hunting down your friends as a souped-up serial killer to the constant threat of impending jump scares, here are our picks for best horror games to play with friends.<\/span>\n\n\n

Best Horror Games To Play With Friends<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n

1. Dead By Daylight — <\/span>For fans of cat and mouse gameplay<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n[caption id=\"attachment_20263\" align=\"aligncenter\" width=\"640\"]\"dead (Credit: steamXO<\/a>\u00a0\/ Flickr)[\/caption]\nWork together with your friends to elude the killer in <\/span>Dead By Daylight<\/span><\/i>, a fun asymmetrical survival horror game that will test your teamwork abilities! You\u2019ll engage in a tense game of cat-and-mouse as survivors repair generators to escape while killers stalk their prey. Your decision-making matters here as you decide whether to save a fellow survivor who\u2019s been captured or capitalise on his misfortune to escape alive. The developers have even included icons like Jigsaw and Leatherface to make this one of the best horror games to play with friends! <\/span>\nPsst<\/span><\/i>, mobile gamers can join in the fun by getting<\/span> Identity V<\/span><\/i>, a horror game with a similar premise that\u2019s free to download on the <\/span>App Store<\/span><\/a> and <\/span>Google Play Store<\/span><\/a>.<\/span>\n\n\n

2. Resident Evil 7 – For those who love virtual reality (VR) <\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n[caption id=\"attachment_20269\" align=\"aligncenter\" width=\"640\"]\"resident (Credit: BagoGames<\/a>\u00a0\/ Flickr)[\/caption]\nIf you\u2019re a glutton for punishment, play <\/span>Resident Evil 7<\/span><\/i><\/a> in VR and come face-to-face with RE7\u2019s monstrosities! The series goes back to its survival horror roots with its latest efforts to unsettle players. Playing as Ethan, you\u2019ll creep through the derelict Baker estate while attempting to escape from the deranged Baker family. VR amplifies the feelings of dread as you tread through claustrophobic corridors and wince at the punishments subjected to you.<\/span>\nA big fan of RE7? Check our list of <\/span>best PS4 story games<\/span><\/a> with similar compelling narratives!<\/span>\n\n\n

3. Left 4 Dead 2 – For multiplayer zombie adventures <\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n[caption id=\"attachment_20267\" align=\"aligncenter\" width=\"500\"]\"left (Credit: Colony of Gamers<\/a> \/ Flickr)[\/caption]\nIf you visited any LAN cafe in 2008, you\u2019d undoubtedly have come across one of the best horror games to play with friends, <\/span>Left 4 Dead 2<\/span><\/i>. Amazingly, this game stood the test of time and remains the go-to game for anyone looking to trudge through the zombie apocalypse with friends! Looking for a more intense horror game experience? Crank up the difficulty to Expert! Your coordination skills are put to the test as ammunition and medkits become scarce and wandering off gets you instantly killed.<\/span>\n\n\n

4. Dead Space – For sci-fi horror fanatics <\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n[caption id=\"attachment_20264\" align=\"aligncenter\" width=\"640\"]\"dead (Credit: PlayStation Europe<\/a>\u00a0\/ Flickr)[\/caption]\nAlthough it\u2019s common practice for gamers to aim for the head, <\/span>Dead Space <\/span><\/i>innovates combat by instructing you to cut limbs instead. You play as Isaac Clarke, a space miner sent to explore the mysterious <\/span>Ishimura<\/span><\/i> starship. As with most horror games, things go awry when horrific monsters massacre the crew and you\u2019re forced to dispatch enemies by strategically dismembering their arms and legs. Voted best horror game of its time, you\u2019ll have a blast slicing off limbs and scraping by with barely any health.<\/span>\n\n\n

5. Alien: Isolation – For those who enjoyed Ridley Scott\u2019s Alien<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n[caption id=\"attachment_20262\" align=\"aligncenter\" width=\"640\"]\"ridley (Credit: PlayStation Europe<\/a>\u00a0\/ Flickr)[\/caption]\nA treat for anyone who loves Ridley Scott\u2019s <\/span>Alien<\/span><\/i> series, <\/span>Alien:Isolation<\/span><\/i><\/a> perfectly recreates the tense atmosphere presented in the first <\/span>Alien <\/span><\/i>movie! Contrary to modern day horror games, the game is a slow burn as it gradually amplifies the unsettling feeling that you\u2019re being stalked and pursued. The developers have granted the Xenomorph Alien a unique artificial intelligence, giving it two brains. One brain picks up on sound and noise cues made by you. Meanwhile, the other brain already knows where you are and feeds the first brain clues, ensuring you\u2019re always being hunted across Sevastopol Station.<\/span>\n\n\n

6. Doki Doki Literature Club – For the anime fans <\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n[caption id=\"attachment_20265\" align=\"aligncenter\" width=\"1024\"]\"doki (Credit: Doki Doki Literature Club<\/a>\u00a0\/ Steam)[\/caption]\nWe won\u2019t fault you for thinking <\/span>Doki Doki Literature Club<\/span><\/i> is your typical Japanese dating simulator with cutesy characters. It starts off with you being invited by your childhood friend to join the school\u2019s literature club. Unfortunately, this soon devolves into a surreal horror game that defies all expectations making it one of the best horror games to play with friends in recent years! We won\u2019t spoil the premise since this is a horror game best experienced first-hand and is <\/span>free to download<\/span><\/a>. Just make sure to read the description beforehand!<\/span>\n\n\n

7. Dying Light – For parkour enthusiasts <\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n[caption id=\"attachment_20266\" align=\"aligncenter\" width=\"640\"]\"dying (Credit: PlayStation Europe<\/a>\u00a0\/ Flickr)[\/caption]\nDying Light<\/span><\/i><\/a> is one of the best horror games to play with friends as it makes zombie slaying fun by introducing parkour! Leap from rooftops and scale walls as you use the urban surroundings against the undead masses. With co-op allowing three extra buddies to tag along, you\u2019ll definitely enjoy shredding zombies and drop-kicking them into nearby hazards. By nightfall, the game turns the tables as zombies transform into bloodthirsty Volatiles. You then decide whether to risk exploring for bonus night experience points or to hide in the safezone and wait until dawn.<\/span>\n\n\n

8. Until Dawn – For teen horror movie fans<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n[caption id=\"attachment_20270\" align=\"aligncenter\" width=\"640\"]\"until (Credit: Anna Fredriksson<\/a>\u00a0\/ Flickr)[\/caption]\nPaying homage to old school teen horror movies, <\/span>Until Dawn<\/span><\/i><\/a> is filled with throwbacks to old-school horror movies like <\/span>Scream<\/span><\/i> and <\/span>Friday The 13th<\/span><\/i>. These include classic stereotypes like the Smart Asian and Dashing Jock alongside cheap jump scares and characters heading into basements alone. Cliches aside, the game\u2019s core revolves around <\/span>The Butterfly Effect<\/span><\/i> – a robust cause-and-effect system that ensures every choice made has consequences. This is one of the best horror games to play with friends as it involves multiple decision-making scenarios including debating over who gets to live or die!<\/span>\n\n\n

9. Outlast – For those who love the chase<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n[caption id=\"attachment_20268\" align=\"aligncenter\" width=\"640\"]\"outlast (Credit: Videogame Photography<\/a>\u00a0\/ Flickr)[\/caption]\nFew games match the same feelings of isolation and tension as the sleeper hit, <\/span>Outlast<\/span><\/i><\/a>! Taking place in an abandoned asylum, you\u2019ll often find yourself hiding under beds with bloodthirsty lunatics in hot pursuit. This is because the game strips you of all weapons, leaving you constantly vulnerable. Armed with just a camcorder and batteries, you\u2019ll often sneak past inmates and navigate through darkened corridors using your night-vision. Unfortunately, you will get discovered and this results in climactic high-speed chases that send you and your friends screaming in fear.<\/span>\n \nDone with our list?
