It's about that time of the year any recommendations? (short free pc games prefred) I'll kick off the list with two games I really liked [URL="http://gamejolt.com/games/other/imscared-a-pixelated-nightmare/10058/"]Imscared[/URL] and [URL="http://mikeinel.deviantart.com/art/Which-Short-Game-152503626"]Which[/URL]
If you haven't played it, try FEAR.
Costume quest
Dangerous Dave 2 and 3. Warning: Dark Humor.

Barbie Horseland Adventure
any game with skeletons
Silent Hill and The Suffering
Resident Evil 1, 2, and 4. 1 and 2 are tense and chilling. 4 isn't that scary, but has a fantastic atmosphere.
For more so the dressing up aspect of Halloween, the original Ragnarok Online(granted its just hats and some masks)? You also do fight ghosts, demons, zombies and the like. While not free, GTA: San Andreas and Saints Row 2/3/4 could to a degree work for the dressing up angle. Can't recommend anything for horror value though.
Alien Isolation is coming out soon, with great reviews
Petz catz 2
Dwarf Fortress, terrifying biome or Cataclysm Dark Days Ahead. Maybe Killing Floor too.
Not sure if this would count, but Red Dead Redemption: Undead Nightmare. [sp]HERBERT MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON![/sp]
If you're into really dark shit, both of the Manhunt games are fantastic. If it really HAS to be free, you could try Cry of Fear. What I played of it was pretty decent. There's also a few good Half Life 2 horror mods that I can't remember the names of.

[QUOTE=Lu-Cuss;46144661]If it really HAS to be free, you could try Cry of Fear.[/QUOTE] On that note, Afraid of Monsters and the They Hunger series are pretty good HL1 horror mods. In terms of HL2 horror mods, Nightmare House 2 is one of my favorites. It's a jumpscare fest, but it's a lot of fun to play. Call of Cthulhu is a pretty good game if you want some Lovecraftian horror.
Hmm... that horror game that got really popular but now everyone tries to forget it as a result... Slenderman.

Like massive stairs that lead back to the area you were already in. Or obelisks that psychedelically bent forwards as you looked up higher and higher.

I do remember some pretty weird shit near the end of the game, though.
I'm disappointed you guys haven't mentioned this one yet: Fatal Frame (Project Zero) series. [editline]Edited: [/editline] Just saw the "free" snippet. Don't really know of too many good free games, unfortunately.

[video=youtube;OJmEbN6TU_g]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJmEbN6TU_g[/video] Don't let you parents catch you playing this!

FEAR Series Amnesia Penumbra Metro Series The Forest Silent Hill Series I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream Lone Survivor Resident Evil Series Outlast Series Routine (Coming Soon for Oculus Rift, looks very atmosphereic) Zafehouse Diaries ( Very cool and interesting idea for a game, executed perfectly imo ) ==Free 2 Play== Kraven Manor Cry of Fear Eyes Erie Nightmare House Series ( The best horror mod for HL2 I've played ) I'm a huge horror genre fan and I'm looking for some new games too, so I'll be lurking for some time.
alien vs predator games Outlast + DLC Amnesia RE 1 and 2 Silent hill 1-4
Yes, Nightmare House 2. Don't worry about downloading part 1: it is included in part 2, you'll see it in the menu. Play part 1. It absolutely sucks compared to 2, but play 1 anyway, because it is short, so you understand the plot more. Then play 2 and have a great time.
Blood.
Terraria.
Amnesia, Outlast, Penumbra
