It's October, or Spooktober as my wife would call it, which means it's the perfect time to pick up some creepy horror games that you can play late at night! So, I decided to take a look and round up some of the best ones out right now to play cuddled up in bed on your Steam Deck. Each one has a very unique feel to it, but all of them will either make you feel genuinely uncomfortable due to the atmosphere it creates or avert your eyes from the horrors on screen:
