Actually the requirements are really low

OS: Windows XP/Vista/7
Processor: 1.5Ghz - Low budget CPUs such as Celeron or Duron needs to be at about twice the CPU speed
Memory: 1 GB
Hard Drive: TBD
Graphics: Radeon 9600/GeForceFX - Integrated graphics and very low budget cards might not work.

OS: Mac OS X 10.5.8 or newer
Processor: 2.0Ghz
Memory: 1 GB RAM
Graphics: Radeon 9600/GeForce 4 (GeForce4MX not supported)
Hard Drive: 2GB space free

Most computers even 2-3 years old could probably run this. As long as they have a dedicated graphics card.

This may be the best thread on this forum! Thanks for sharing this with your fellow horror-lovers.

2 issues with OP post however:

"Dead Bart" seems to have the endings of some of the paragraphs cut short.

The "Mickey Mouse" video is no longer working; here's a valid link

And if anyone is interested there is a great horror-shooter-mod for Half-Life 2: Episode 2 called Nightmare House 2 (Vastly superior to NH1.)

prototype.

That angel statue story creeps me out.

I have a fear of looking out the window at night now.

Wow, this is an awesome thread.Some stories were SERIOUSLY hurt by the lack of professional-like writing though, it hurts the whole atmosphere of the story and doesn't make it as enjoyable.

Others were really great though, A Perfect Life, I Wonder If He Likes Me?, Statue, The Bad Dream (phrase "the thing wearing Mommy's skin" freaked me out :/ ), You're Not Scared, Right? (I like the modern inclusion of facebook and even the actual website which posts these stories) and especially My House Has Rules were f-ing great.

Also, the "In soviet Russia" spinoffs had me literally rofling for a while xD
Oh and the short animated creepy movies are awesome as well (Smile, i.e.)

This thread delivers so hard. Starting to read at just past midnight yesterday, I spent a long while going through the best short stories in the OP. Then I went to SCP, and before I knew it, there was daylight outside.

OP, you're awesome.

Fantastic! The first stories were a bit meh, but as you read more they start becoming more and more scary! Looking forward to more.

Oh wow. This is trippy. Good to find it though. Thanks OP, even if I never sleep again after the German Sleep Experiment story o.O

Or wait...maybe I should sleep if I do not want to end up like them. Gah!

Believe it was the russian sleep experiment. But either way, it was a fucking awesome story.

Whoops. My bad. Though tbh, whether it was Russian or German was not what I was focusing on XD

God...and I work the night shift too. Going to be an interesting time tonight o.O Can't stop reading these.

EDIT: Anyone else too freaked out by the stories to open the movies? XD

you should watch the review for this game, looks absolutely frightening

It comes out tomorrow on Steam

reminds me of nosferatu which was scary as fuck when u first start playing it. It really feels like that game was the inspiration for Amnesia. But yea once u play for a while unfortunately you get used to it and just start to slay monsters left and right approaching it like your regular FPS. So no weapons is a great idea to keep the scaries rolling.

"Scary music. Don't listen to these tunes when you're trying to go to sleep. You'll pay dearly for it."

I listen to black metal, so the scary music doesent really affect me even if im about to sleep now, night.
