<p>Have you ever played a game that really scared you? I don&#8217;t mean just a &#8220;dog jumping through a window&#8221; kind of startle scare. I mean a &#8220;hair on the back of your neck stand up, chill down your spine, keep you up at night&#8221; kind of game. Was it something recent, or an old classic? Was the whole game scary, or was it just a small section that got to you? Perhaps you&#8217;re a complete scaredy cat and avoid scary games all together. Let us know, in haiku form, obviously!</p>
<p>Here are some of our favorite scary games:</p>
