Looking for good indie or free horror survival games to play

Hey everyone! I’m really into survival horror games but I don’t want to spend too much money right now. I’m hoping you guys can suggest some awesome indie horror games or free ones that are worth playing.

I love games that really get your heart pumping and make you jump. The kind where you have to manage resources while trying not to get killed by scary monsters or whatever. I’ve played some of the big name titles already but I want to discover some hidden gems that maybe not everyone knows about.

What are your favorite budget-friendly horror survival games? Doesn’t matter if they’re on Steam, itch.io, or anywhere else. I just want something that will keep me up at night!

Spooky’s Jump Scare Mansion is free and scary as hell, even with those cute graphics. Don’t let the art style fool you.

You might enjoy Darkwood. It’s a unique blend of survival and horror that keeps you on edge.

SCP Containment Breach is free and will mess with your head. The facility feels like a nightmare you can’t escape.

The Forest’s solid if you can grab it on sale. You’re building shelters while avoiding cannibals - great atmosphere. Also try World of Horror on itch.io. Retro pixel art but the cosmic horror will genuinely creep you out. Both nail the resource management you want.

Don’t miss out on Amnesia: The Dark Descent. It’s a classic for a reason and absolutely nails the horror experience.
