It’s that special time of year again. The days are getting shorter, the weather is getting cooler and Halloween is just around the corner. While this time of year is ripe for a spooky movie or two, many games are also supporting Halloween-inspired in-game events. So, if you can’t get your fill of fright from a horror movie marathon, it might be time to jump into a game like Dead by Daylight, Fortnite, or Call of Duty.
One of my favorite aspects of contemporary games is how many put on special in-game events for the holidays. It’s a chance to jump in and play some new content. Plus, as a lifelong fan of the spooky season, there’s nothing better than playing one of my favorite games and seeing the cosmetic changes made throughout October. If you’re like me and can’t get enough scares from your games, here are the best spooky in-game Halloween events to play this season.
