Alright, if you’ve been on Roblox for a while, you probably already know there are a ton of horror games out there. Some are genuinely creepy, some are just cheap jump scares, and some are surprisingly deep if you stick with them. I’ve played more than I care to admit yes, sometimes at 2 AM when I should’ve been asleep , and here’s my list of the ones that actually stuck with me you know, the ones where you pause the game and just sit there like, “Why am I doing this to myself?”
Let’s go.
Okay, Dead Silence? This one doesn’t need to do too much. It’s super quiet, and honestly, that’s what makes it terrifying. You’re walking around, and suddenly you hear a creak upstairs, or maybe you hear a whisper so soft you’re not even sure you heard it. You just freeze like, “Did I imagine that?” The whole vibe is eerie from start to finish.
What’s cool is that every time you play, the items are in different spots, so you can’t just memorize your way through it. You always feel a little lost, which makes it worse. There aren’t a ton of loud, cheap scares it’s more about the tension, the silence, and that horrible feeling something’s about to happen, but you don’t know when.
The Mimic is a different beast. It’s not just a scary game it’s like stepping into a Japanese horror movie. The monsters don’t just chase you they’re unsettling in the way they move and the way they feel wrong. The story is all over the place at first like, you really have to pay attention if you wanna figure out what’s actually going on.
It’s not gonna spoon-feed you. And the community? They love digging into the lore, so you’ll find tons of people trying to connect the dots on YouTube and in chats. It’s not just about running away it’s about piecing together what the heck is happening while you’re freaking out.
Doors is pure chaos, but in the best way. You open door after door, thinking, “This is fine,” and then suddenly you’ve got seconds to react or you’re toast. Sometimes you get a long chill section, sometimes the monsters come at you one after another with no time to breathe.
The sounds in this game are brutal you’ve gotta listen carefully or you’ll miss a key warning. What makes it so good is that it’s unpredictable. Every time you play, the layout and the scares change just enough to keep you guessing. Plus, when you mess up and panic, it’s kinda hilarious unless you’re the one getting wrecked, lol.
3008 is probably the weirdest one on this list, but it’s a vibe. Imagine getting locked inside a giant IKEA, but the employees turn into creepy monsters at night and start chasing you. During the day, you can just chill and build forts out of beds and shelves but once the store “closes,” it’s survival mode. The scariest part is sometimes you get really into building and forget the time, and suddenly the lights cut out and the employees are sprinting at you.
The randomness of what people build is half the fun. Some players make tiny panic boxes, others build huge castles that totally fall apart when monsters show up. It’s funny, chaotic, and lowkey terrifying when you’re caught outside at night.
This one’s for the players who like their horror a little more psychological. Apeirophobia is basically Roblox’s version of the Backrooms you know, those endless yellow hallways with buzzing lights and nowhere to go. The thing is, there are monsters, but the scariest part isn’t even the chases it’s the vibe.
The silence. The weird shapes in the distance. The feeling you’re being watched. I’ve literally just stopped moving in the game because I thought I heard something, but it was nothing… or was it? This one messes with your brain in a way I didn’t expect.
Not enough people talk about this game, and I don’t get why. It Lurks starts out super normal you’re at home, nothing’s happening, you’re just walking around. But then things start feeling… wrong. Like, the doors are slightly open when you didn’t touch them, or you hear footsteps in the wrong place.
The pacing is slow, but that’s the point. It builds that quiet dread, so when something does happen, it hits hard. It’s not flashy it’s creepy in a quiet, “oh no, something’s watching me” kinda way. Definitely a hidden gem.
This one’s simple but super creepy. You basically go up this endless apartment building, and the higher you go, the weirder it gets. It’s like each floor tells its own little horror story. What makes this game so good is that the scares aren’t always loud or obvious.
Sometimes it’s just the weird feeling that something’s not right, or the way a room doesn’t look quite normal. It’s a slow-burn kind of horror, and I actually liked that I could explore at my own pace until it wasn’t so chill anymore .
If you’ve got a short attention span or just wanna jump from one horror vibe to another, this one’s for you. It’s like a bunch of mini horror games packed into one. One story might be a fast-paced monster chase, and the next could be super slow and psychological.
You never really know what’s coming next, which keeps things fresh. Also, the creators get pretty creative with the scares it’s not the same formula over and over.
