Duder, either a playthrough of Silent Hill 1, 2, and maybe 3 or Resident Evil 1, 2, and maybe 3 would definitely be the way to go. Read through walkthroughs before each session so you know how to solve frustrating puzzles without getting stuck, but I know that a classic SH or RE playthrough series would be great, for the GB community and - as a horror fan - you as well.

Anyways, thanks as always for more episodes of Spookin'.

Friday Night at Freddy's seems kinda like the much better version of Night Trap. It's great to see more indie horror games that aren't trying to just be Slenderman.

Five Nights of Freddy's is fucking absurd, and I guess that's part of the charm? "Hey, here's a really shitty job. Also the buddies try to kill you and everything drains batteries and there are blind spots right outside your door. Okay, bye!"

Patrick is really good at getting immersed and freaked out by horror games. I can't do that, unfortunately! :(

@fobwashed: I think the way Patrick kind of slaps at the air while he's screaming makes it.

just curious, since the light switch has the same usage meter as the cameras, what if you just don't use the camera, and tap a light switch every few seconds?

I don't know what it is but I just can't get into watching Pat play Fatal Frame 2. Possibly because I've never played a Fatal Frame but I highly enjoyed the Blair Witch episodes and haven't played those games. I loved the Five Nights segment at the beginning though.

@patrickklepek Fatal Frame 2 is pretty long. It also has 3 or 4 different endings and an extra difficulty mode once you beat it. You also unlock like 3 or 4 new lens types and carry over all your leftover film and stuff. There's also ghosts that only show up after you beat the game once. It's an incredible game. One of my favorites.

Five Nights at Freddy's would be much less exciting if the player just built some solid obstacles in the doorways. Or quit.

Why do they need security at night?

I think they said that one of the robots gets more active if you don't use the cameras much. So that will probably lead to you getting rushed by that robot. I could be wrong tho.

That's how Foxy gets you. You always have to at least check on Foxy to make sure he hasn't left Pirate Cove.

Friday Night was way more fun to watch than Fatal Frame. That said, great Spookin' all around.

@patrickklepek You should give "Calm Simulator" a try, http://panzorfork.itch.io/calm-simulator

I've had bug reports from people saying that they don't feel calm while playing it. Walk towards the cube to feel calm.

This is one of my favorite features, mainly because I'm too scared to play any of these games myself.

I'm glad I was surprised by Five Nights at Freddy's. I didn't think it would be that entertaining or scary but holy crap that game got me good. Pretty sure I said out loud a few times "No Patrick don't do it!" when he decided to retry those levels.

Five nights at Freddie's' was interesting to watch and i thought genuinely kind of scary i would definitely like to see Patrick try and finish it, but fatal frame is just not that scary anymore and i don't think Patrick's scared of it so i hope he moves on from that particular game.

@patrickklepek: Any chance we can get a spookin with scoops video covering Resident Evil 1 HD remake when it is released? Not sure if it would appeal to the majority of folks here, but I would love to watch it live!

As a fan of horror, I thought Five Night's at Freddy's was pretty damn good. Not much in the way of actual gameplay going on, but it sets up an effective atmosphere that becomes more and more oppressive, which is why I liked what I saw of it. Don't think I'd actually have the patience to make it through the entire game, but I'll pick it up to support the developer. Thanks for pointing that one out, Patrick. Keep spookin'.

Yea, guess 5 Nights at Freddy's is not a game for everyone. Its not much of a real game, and heard people say they dont even consider it a horror game due to it being solely jump scares. I however think it is AMAZING! I had a lot of fun with it. One of my top games of the year, and only 5$! I think the game is genius for what it does!

Im actually amazed Patrick held up as well as he did in-between the start of the night and getting caught.

Just catching up with this series now. Should Patrick be looking at the comments section of this video from Waypoint - you're an incredibly entertaining person to watch playing scary video games! Thank you for helping me to start off my October right!
