Steam’s Halloween fest begins next week

Looking forward to Halloween? If not, see you at Thanksgiving. If you are, Steam is once again about to kick-off one of its many sales events. This time, it’s all about the spooky (I refuse to say “spoops” in earnest).

In a recent vid🤪eo uploaded to YouTube, Valve announced the Steam Scream: The Revenge fest begins on October 26, going on until November 2. Keep an eye o🐻n for details about what deals and discounts will be on offer.

As usual, we don’t know the specifics of what games will be featured, but we do know it’s a celebration of all things horror-related.

For example…

In the trailer above, you can see glimpses of some of the titles participating in Steam Scream. It looks like there’s a healthy bunch of AAA and indie games to look forward to.

We can see clips from Black Mesa (the ambitious fan remake of Half-Life), Metro Exodus, Little Nightmares 2, DEVOUR, Five Nights at Freddy’s: Security Breach, the Dead Space remake, GTFO, Hollow Knight, and more. In short, it looks like it’s going to be a pretty interesting fest for us horror fans.

This time of year is always a hoot for the genre. Steam especially seems to keep its finger on the pulse when it comes to Halloween. As a long-time lover of horror gaming, the next week or so is going to be an exciting one for me. Although, the scariest thing will be how I’m going to be able to afford all these discounted titles.
