Inexpensive horror games

[MysticToast]

After seeing a hilarious Call of Cthulu video (which really made me want to play the game) and looking through a thread on here about creepy games, I decided I need to try out a creepy game.

Thing is I don't have a lot of money so can any of you recommend a good creepy game for around $10? That would be awesome.

Penumbra. Any of those games will fit your MO and are dirt cheap, in fact, Black Plague and Overture are 10$ USD a piece. They're both available on Steam.

If you're not a Steam fan..

STALKER: Shadow of Chernobyl [5$] [http://www.direct2drive.com/531/3285/product/Buy-STALKER:-Shadow-of-Chernobyl-Download]

F.E.A.R 2: Project Origin [10$] [http://www.direct2drive.com/531/7554/product/Buy-F.E.A.R.-2-Project-Origin-Download]

F.E.A.R [10$] [http://www.direct2drive.com/531/9435/product/Buy-F.E.A.R.-Download]

Best of luck.

What system, if I may ask?

Well, Condemned shouldn't be too expensive anymore. Also, check out Amnesia The Dark Descent

The Path.

It's a short game and a bit of an arty one in the sense that it might not even be a real game, but it's definitely creepy and it's inexpensive.

Amnesia: The Dark Decent?
Condemned is supposed to be good, too, but I don't know.

Wow, ninja'd.

 

[SillyBear]

Amnesia! It's fantastic.

 

[MysticToast]

Sorry didn't state what system. I have a laptop that's decent but can't play newer games. The Amnesia demo won't even run cuz my integrated graphics card isn't supported.

Thanks for the suggestions so far though

Resident Evil Remake and Resident Evil 0 on gamecube and wii. So much quality.

Penumbra black plague Is £8 on steam.

Sweet Home. Best horror game I've ever played.

Penumbra Overture is pretty cheap. It'll only take you about 7-8 hours though.

I wouldn't recommend playing Black Plague first. Especially since the game is significantly shorter then Overture was.

I mentioned it in the creepiest games thread... Sanitarium from GOG. Point and click adventure in an asylum, good times.

 

[madwarper]

Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem for the GC, you might be able to find it in a bargain bin somewhere.

When you play it, do whatever it takes to empty your sanity meter. Much more interesting that way.

Yume Nikki and Yume 2kki are pretty interesting (and free!).

I can't explain why they're creepy, but I find them profoundly disturbing for some reason.

Almost every horror game is cheap because those are not recent.
I will recomend Condemned or F.E.A.R
