Roblox is currently one of the leading game development platforms. The platform boasts over 40 million games, mostly developed by users of the platform itself. It’s a great practice ground for aspiring developers.
As a result, the platform offers a plethora of titles ranging from quirky puzzles to fun rip-offs of popular titles. Even if it’s not Halloween, it doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy good horror games at other times of the year.
Top 14 Roblox Horror Games
Horror games have been a vast genre in the world of video games, and it’s no surprise that there are dozens of games on this platform belonging to this realm. Some are Roblox versions of various popular titles, but each one is more fun than the last.
Paranormica
This is an obvious mention on this list. This game bears a striking resemblance to the recently released ghost hunting game, Phasmophobia, a video game that has already become a massive phenomenon and even dominated Twitch for a while.
Paranormica also involves investigating paranormal incidents with 4 team members. It becomes quite fun and genuinely spooky.
Midnight Horrors
This is essentially a horror survival game with investigation elements. Despite featuring Roblox’s brick-based graphics, this can be quite scary. If scares are your thing, this is the game for you.
Despite being called “Midnight Horrors”, the game contains tons of inside jokes, non-horror characters, and ABSOLUTE CHAOS!
Dead Silence
This is generally considered the scariest game on the platform. It’s essentially a story-based horror game that you can play alone or with two teammates. No spoilers on what this game has in store for you, but trust us when we say it hasn’t earned the title of the scariest game on the platform for nothing.
A Wolf or Other
This fantastic game by Otter Space is a version of the classic Murder Mystery game, but with a unique twist.
Players are randomly selected to be innocents, hunters, or werewolves. The job with the innocents is to try to stay alive, the hunter is armed with a crossbow and has the task of taking down the werewolf. The werewolf’s goal is, of course, to kill everyone.
Zombie Attack

Project Lazarus: Zombies
This game by Logitech101 is clearly inspired by the Call of Duty zombie mode and does a great job creating an exciting game.
The premise is simple: A group of survivors needs to hold off waves of zombies and last as long as possible. As you kill zombies or repair barricades, you earn points that you can spend on better weapons or on removing obstacles that block the map.
As expected, the early waves are pretty easy, but things soon get much harder and require teamwork to survive. Every now and then, a zombie will drop a power-up that will benefit the entire team and might provide additional ammo, short-term instant kills, or other advantages.
