The witching month is upon us, y'all!

Get your favorite black cat, your loosest anthropomorphic skeleton, and your best pumpkin carving tools out from storage — it's time to get wild in the streets. If nothing else, it's time to listen to Tim Curry classic, "Anything Can Happen on Halloween."

Wait! Where are you going? Come back! We've put together the 19 scariest games for you to play in the lead up to All Hallows Eve and the subsequent Halloween festivities on October 31! But which is the spoo-OO-ookiest? Join us below to find out!

19: 'Silent Hill: Shattered Memories'

"Silent Hill: Shattered Memories" is the most interesting entry in the long-running "Silent Hill" series — a series that largely revolves around third-person puzzle solving and the occasional action bit. What's different about "Shattered Memories" is it has a huge, crazy story twist, and it's available on the Nintendo Wii. If you dare!

18: 'Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem'

Though you'll need a Nintendo GameCube to enjoy "Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem," we can't suggest it enough. It takes your expectations for a horror game and contorts them in exciting, unique ways. On its face, it's just a third-person action game. But in reality, it's a terrifying exploration of player agency and unreliable narrators.

17: 'Fatal Frame: Maiden of Black Water'

The newest entry in the "Fatal Frame" series has been out for some time in other parts of the world, and it's heading to North American Wii U game consoles on October 22nd. If you've ever wanted to carefully snap photos of ghosts before they're able to murder you, this is your big chance.
