7. Resident Evil Revelations 2

Resident evil revelations 2 is a survival horror game that takes place between the events of Resident Evil 5 and Resident Evil 6. In each episode of the game you control two characters, One who specializes in ranged weapons,such as guns,the other more melee and has the ability to find items that the other character cannot.

You begin by taking control of Claire Redfield and Moira Burton who after a horrible end to a party are taken to a abandoned facility. They must find out why they have been taken and by who all while fighting off the horrible creatures known as the afflicted. I have to say even with a shotgun in my hands, I didn't feel at all ready for the horrors that waited for me.

Be careful of some of the choices you make in game as they will effect the ending and also be sure you upgrade your weapons otherwise this journey will be a very short one i promise you.

Step right up and win a prize! NO THANKS!

This game is not about jump scares or running from crazed killers, It is pure psychological horror .If you have the guts and mental fortitude I would recommend taking a chance on this disturbing story of parenting. Though i must warn you this game is not for the weak of heart or weak of mind.

5. Five Nights at Freddys 4

The game starts out differently from the other three. Instead of a security office you start inside of a young boys bedroom. This child, who is deathly afraid of the freddy and his animatronic friends.  

Throughout the game you learn more and more of this poor boy who is being terrorized by someone and amplifying his fear of the animatronics.

Everyday you learn something new about the child and his situation that seems to revolve around a upcoming party at Freddy Fazbear's pizzeria.

The story behind this game is pretty dark and sad but taking on the role of a scared child definitely adds to the fear this game has brought in the past and is regarded by many as the scariest five nights at freddy's yet.
