3. Nightmare House 2

Just your average hospital basement

Video game mods can be plenty freaky too. Nightmare House 2 is a horror mod for Half Life: Episode 2 and plays as a first person shooter. Nightmare House 2 is one of the best mods out there. The game is polished and bug free, with fantastic voice acting, combat, and features well crafted creepy environments.

Players wake in a padded room within an abandoned hospital called "Never Lose Hope" without any idea of how they got there. The character has vague visions of Emily, a girl from Nightmare House. Players will quickly be unable to distinguish dreams from reality as they encounter strange creatures and zombies, blood smeared environments, and skeletons that get pulled away by unseen entities. The game has a constant stream of jump scares and throws many enemies to players at once. Thankfully there are multiple weapons to choose from, such as a revolver, shotgun, and axe to fit various play styles. The puzzles are engrossing and sensible, players will be tasked with replacing fusses, finding secret passages, and navigating dark vents.

Can you escape the asylum and what awaits you if you succeed?
