Imagine yourself walking through a dark forest. No, better than that, you’re walking through an acid-trip memory of a dark forest. The only sound you hear is that of your own footsteps through the thick layer of dead leaves that blankets the forest floor and that’s when you realise you’re completely lost. As you stop to get your bearings you notice that those rustling footsteps didn’t stop with you; someone else is walking right next to you and getting closer! You run, looking wildly around for the supernatural hunter that has you in its sights and you see… nothing. But the sound of footsteps continues. A wonderfully tense moment is killed with the revelation that the sound you hear isn’t someone else nearby, they’re not even your own steps, it’s just a recording playing on a loop with no actual danger at all. As the illusion is destroyed, you relax for a moment. That’s when the demonic school girl jumps out.

10 awesome and obscure horror games you probably haven't heard of. What offbeat horror games do you love? Let us know in the comments!
Eternal Darkness is pretty popular. A better entry would've been Clock Tower.
I have Haunting Ground on the PS2 and Siren Blood Curse on the PS3. Both of those games are pretty good.
DeSpiria for the Dreamcast it's a strange horror RPG evolving around a special agent sent to discover an underground cult. It's set in a dystopian future after World War III which leads to some serious creepy atmosphere. The character designs are questionable but it flourishes in monster design and disturbing music (which would have been so much better in full-length but tracks are limited to 20 second loops.) I await the day I am fluent in my Japanese studies so I can play this game in it's entirety.

Haunting Ground, Galerians and Rule of Rose deserves mentions as well. I would go on about these three but I doubt you guys want to read a novel....
