Liststorm of Scariness 2: The Exorlist

by mento

Because I ran out of space on the other one.

So yeah, same deal: I'm using this list to track the many horror games played by two internet fraidycats - Fraidymatt and Fraidypat - over on their channel and website whenever October rears its ugly tentacled head. Even if you're not batshit about the Zaibatsu, you can always use this list (and the previous) for some spooky horror game ideas this Halloween. List #2 starts with the games played in their 2016 feature, with subsequent years to follow.

Showing 1-10 of 82 items

Anatomy

1. Anatomy

01/10/2016. Biology skeletons are spooky enough, but this is specifically the game Anatomy available on Itch.io from Kittyhorrorshow. When is a house not a home? When it's glitchy as hell and none of the lights are working.

NightCry

2. NightCry

02/10/2016. The Kickstarted Clock Tower successor is the first big profile game for this year's Shitstorm of Scariness, and once again features a giant pair of scissors with no giant rocks to counter it with. Can the duo sprint away in high heel shoes and find a good hiding place before a vending machine can eat them?

Extermination

3. Extermination

03/10/2016. Freezident Evil was an early showcase for the PS2, joining such luminaries as Orphen: Scion of Sorcery and EverGrace for what passed as a library close to the system's release. Can Not-Leon Kennedy, Deadmeat Dennis and the mysterious entity Throbbo find their way out of this icy hellhole?

Outlast 2

4. Outlast 2

04/10/2016. It's another episode of battery-rummaging and dick-pummeling as the duo try out a demo of the upcoming Outlast sequel. We're going redneck cult in this one.

Corpse Party

5. Corpse Party

05/10/2016. It's a playthrough of Corpse Party, who could ask for more? "Senpai in the Sheets" Liam joins the usual duo for the cult animes-in-peril adventure game. Can they avoid buttering up their Wrong End?

Nightmare Creatures II

6. Nightmare Creatures II

06/10/2016. A game both too grimdark and too regular dark for its own good, the duo try to direct Mummylin Manson to perform some sick nasty axe fatalities. That is, if they can figure out where to go in the game's endless inky blackness.

Videotape

7. Videotape

07/10/2016. This would be "The Final Take", presently available on Steam. Leaning a bit too hard on the ol' VHS filter and some obnoxious voiceovers, the spooks arrive very slowly. Or very quickly sometimes. Ghosts don't have an agreed upon speed limit, turns out.

The Evil Within

8. The Evil Within

08/10/2016. The duo already LPed The Evil Within in its lunatic entirety, but here they check out the DLC that let players see what happened to the disappearing and reappearing cop Julie Kidman during the game's events. She gets attacked by zombies a lot, is what.

Carrier

9. Carrier

09/10/2016. The Dreamcast becomes the Nightmarecast for this Resident Evil also-Res on an aircraft carrier, but, like, there's a virus that has carriers too, so it's like a whole double meaning sort of thing. Anyway, invisible zombies.

The Cursed Forest

10. The Cursed Forest

10/10/2016. The duo hotstep it to a creepy forest filled with hungry red eyes and other evil red glowy shit. Among the terrifying revelations include frogs that give birth through their backs and how we all have skeletons that chew our food for us.
