Horror is a staple across every form of media. For some reason, people just love getting scared. Roblox, a series of games under the guise of another game that’s actually just a hub or aggregator, has no shortage of spooky, scary games to enjoy. However, since anyone can develop and publish a game on Roblox, there’s a lot of refuse to shovel through before finding a gem. Here are 10 of the best scary games on Roblox.
What are the scariest games on Roblox?
I should preface this with the disclaimer that I’m not an avid Roblox player. I’ll play every now and then, but tycoon simulators are more my jam. So, I turned to the resident Roblox expert in our house, my 10-year-old son, who has been playing all manner of Roblox games for years. The following information is straight from him and he has been adequately compensated with Robux for his participation.
