Folk Horror
Best Folk Horror Games on Steam
Folk horror is the fear of old places: isolated villages, harvest rites, forest spirits and the bargains people made with them long before you arrived. Instead of monsters bursting out of laboratories, the threat is the land itself and the community that still keeps its customs. These games draw on Alpine, Slavic, English, Japanese and Appalachian traditions, and they tend to unsettle slowly rather than shock, which makes them ideal for long October evenings.
