Hey everyone!

I’m in the mood for some spooky gaming but my wallet’s feeling a bit light. Can anyone suggest some awesome indie horror games that won’t cost me a dime? I’m mainly interested in stuff available on Steam.

I’m open to all kinds of horror styles - psychological, jump scares, atmospheric, you name it. Just as long as it’s indie and free, I’m all ears!

What are your top picks for free indie horror games that really deliver the scares? Any hidden gems I might have missed? Thanks in advance for your recommendations!

Man, free indie horror games are my jam. I’ve spent way too many nights scaring myself silly with these.

Definitely check out Spooky’s Jump Scare Mansion. Don’t let the cute graphics fool you, that game gets intense.

SCP: Containment Breach is another good one if you’re into weird paranormal stuff.

And if you want something more atmospheric, try Lurking. It uses sound in really cool ways to freak you out.

If you’re into creepy platformers, try Eversion. Starts cute but gets twisted.

Totally free on Steam and messes with your expectations. Not super long but definitely delivers some chills.

Doki Doki Literature Club is a wild ride if you’re into psychological horror. Starts off innocent but takes some dark turns. Just make sure to play through a couple times to get the full experience.

Cry of Fear is a classic free indie horror on Steam. Solid scares and a creepy atmosphere. Totally worth checking out if you haven’t already.

Dude, you gotta try No Players Online. It’s a short but super creepy game that messes with your head. Looks like an old-school FPS at first but gets weird fast. Totally free on Steam and worth a play if you’re into psychological horror vibes.
