For the past four years one of the recurring threads in the Movies section has been an October long tour through major horror franchises, I feel like next year will be the last gasp for air from the shallow grave for that thread but it feels like the only right thing to do in this time when the light draws dim and the moon rises over the black silhoutte of the tree line is to take a similar journey through the long history of notable horror gaming titles...
So, come with us, as we journey through the creaking door of gamings past and present...

Game 01 - Siren
Launched on the PlayStation 2, Keiichiro Toyama wrote the game after completing the original Silent Hill. The game sees players control several characters across different time periods but all trapped within a small village that has been taken over by deadly undead figures. Remade for PlayStation 3 five years later, the game was loved by fans for its story and sense of dread thanks to the vulnerability that the characters faced compared to more combat driven rival franchises.
