<br>The Deep Wound status is, in short, a sign that a Survivor is in a heck of a lot of trouble.

All around the country, horror fans are curling up with their favorite scary movies as they dig into their third box of Halloween candy. But with the COVID-19 pandemic still requiring people to stay home, many have already exhausted that list of movies – and, let’s face it, that’s probably their fourth or fifth box of candy. But fear not, boils and ghouls: horror movies aren’t the only way to get into the spooky spirit this sea<br><br> <br>An interesting detail about the Nightmare is that his iconic lullaby makes an appearance whenever a Survivor enters the Dream World. What’s interesting is that the lullaby doesn’t have the infamous lyrics, it’s simply young children humming the t<br><br> <br>The Alien franchise has become a juggernaut of horror and sci-fi media, spawning a variety of adaptations including novelizations, comic books, and multiple Alien- themed video games . However, 2014’s survival horror game Alien: Isolation easily takes the chest-burster cake. Set fifteen years after the events of the original film, the game plays homage to its predecessor by focusing on stealth and survival-based gameplay, rather than falling into the common video game trap of repetitive onslaughts of enem<br><br> <br>The spiritual successor to another critically-acclaimed horror game, Limbo , Playdead’s Inside defies categorization. Part psychological thriller, part dystopian nightmare, part honestly-who-knows, the puzzle-platformer starts off very Nineteen Eighty-Four and ends up somewhere between Craven and Cronenberg. Players assume the role of a young nameless boy as he attempts to escape a dystopian society, the true nature of which is slowly revealed (though never definitively explained) over the course of the g<br><br> <br>A good amount of normal people have a fear of the doctors office or even the dentist.

Essentially Cabin in the Woods as a video game, Until Dawn follows a group of friends as they revisit the remote cabin where two of their group went missing the previous year. The night soon becomes a nightmare, and every little decision counts as the player assumes the role of each of the eight characters as they attempt to survive until morn<br><br> <br>Various perks bestow Haste on the player, including Lithe (which gives a temporary boost to sprint speed after a rushed vault) and Sprint Burst (a momentary super-fast dash for up to three seconds). The thing to be aware of is that Haste tends to inflict the Exhausted Status Effect on the user afterwards, which can be very dangerous (more on that lat<br><br> <br>One of the shortest games on this list, Little Nightmares can easily be completed in an afternoon. Luckily, for gamers looking to stay in the spooky spirit right through October 31, the game also offers a three-part DLC, The Secrets of the Maw , and a mobile spin-off titled Very Little Nightmares .

The ultra-creepy puzzle-platformer follows a young child named Six as she attempts to escape The Maw, an aptly named ship that plays host to a variety of horrors. Though the main character and title skew younger, make no mistake: with underlying themes of cannibalism and speculated matricide, Little Nightmares is definitely not for kids . It is, however, a very fun and suitably spooky little game perfect for the Halloween season – and, to horror film fans’ delight, actually set for a television adaptation directed by Henry Selick , the director of Coraline and the much beloved The Nightmare Before Christm<br>
