Spooky retro games thread? Don't worry, this entire game has that covered.

Legitimately one of the creepiest games I've ever played. Really, really not joking. Haven't seen anyone talk about it though.

Imma d/l this now, thanks for the rec.

My all time favorite pair of games are Clock Tower: The First Fear for the SuperFamicom and Clock Tower on Playstation. They're not spooky, they're legit bonkers fucking scary.

The only thing I don't like about them is that I've beaten both of them so many times they don't scare me any more, but there was a time I had to sleep with the light on and make sure I could see behind every door in any room I entered after sunset.

Multiple paths, multiple endings, deep story, and lots of action. Plus a likable heroine (I used to want to be her).

IDK if posting links to ROMs is OK on this board, if so let me know and I'll gladly do the work of setting you up with the English version of the SFC game and a working link to the PS game.

IMO, Clock Tower: Ghost Head and Clock Tower 3 for PS2 are shit.

I never liked how he turns around when standing still.

It's unsettling for sure. Unfortunately it was one of Acclaim's titles, meaning it was mediocre, but passable if you had nothing better or new to play. Definitely fits the halloween niche.

The weird thing is there's two releases of this game. One by Acclaim, the other by sunsoft.

Both are mediocre as hell

it's not unsettling because of its halloween/spooky theme, but because of how weird the game actually is.

The game's creepy because everything feels slightly "off". It's weird, on the surface, they intentionally wanted a Looney Toons game with a spooky theme to it. But unintentionally, they just made everything look just slightly weird and jarring.

>Those oddly detailed graphics
>That weird music ranging from haunted house to carnival tunes, all not quite on key as you expect
>The day stages feel "fake"
>Those unsettling 'icicle' enemies in the himalayas
>That goddamn ending

It all goes just a bit over what one would expect for a silly Looney Toons game starring Porky Pig. I beat it alone as a kid, and then in front of friends in my 20's, and none of us knew just what the fuck we'd just played.

I think it was intended to be a campy halloween theme, but instead, it landed in the uncanny valley.

I was just trying to ensure someone who hadn't experienced Clock Tower definitely would. Some people are fucking retarded and they need a hand to hold. I want to provide that hand.

I'd also recommend Nightmare Creatures for Playstation.

How about spooky stuff inside generally non-spooky games?

One of Toaplan's few non-shmup games, Knuckle Bash, has nothing scary going for it except for the final boss which is a fatso with a pigface sewn into it's head

Oh god, the carnival tunes

I'm sure I've heard something very similar to this on Mr Bungle's first album, that fiendish carnival vibe.
