Are you a fan of casino games? Do you also love the dark and macabre? Then you will be pleased to know that for horror fans, there are a wide range of casino games online to keep you on the edge of your seat. In the following article, we provide a guide to the most frightful casino titles available online.
A Nightmare on Elm Street
Horror movies seldom come as iconic as A Nightmare on Elm Street, so a slot game with a license from the movie is a good place to start. Firstly, the game comes with a low return to player rating attached at 94.5%. It is also based on the 2010 remake, which is nowhere near as recognizable as the original. However, it makes up for this in terms of gameplay with exciting symbols, bonuses, and imagery taken from the movie itself.
It contains a sizable four bonus games. Hit three bonus icons and you trigger the Never Sleep Again bonus round. Land five of Freddy Krueger’s claws and you will get 30 free spins. Manage to get a wild symbol on the first and fifth reels to see a Pick Me feature kick into play.
Most exciting is that the game has progressive jackpots. These are totals that are added to every time someone plays. A small amount is taken from their wager and used to grow the pot. This can create massive amounts that are waiting to be won. In fact, you could win the prize of your dreams, if you dare go to sleep beforehand.
Aviator
One fairly new phenomenon when it comes to online casino games is crash gaming. These titles may not be entirely horror-based but they do encapsulate a theme found in thriller movies like The Horror at 37,000 Feet and The Night Flier: That a traveling plane could at any moment drop from the sky when you are on it.
Crash games let you place a wager on how far an onscreen plane will get before this happens. The outcome is determined by a random number generator. The longer it stays in the air, the longer multipliers will increase your potential winnings. However, if you don’t cash out before it crashes out, you lose your money.
The most popular of these is the Aviator betting game. It was the first of the crash gaming titles to arrive. In this title, you have to guess the trajectory of an airplane, thus the title. In the most recent version, your plane does not crash at all but will somewhat more optimistically shoot off into the sky and leave the screen. Other games similar to this are Maverick and F777.
While you may not get the spooks and scares inherent in other casino titles, you do get that same surge of adrenaline. It is very similar to waiting for the bad guy to jump out in a horror film or waiting to uncover the next gruesome murder. With millions of players around the world, it is a great one to try if you get tired of slot games or just want a different experience.
Immortal Romance
Immortal Romance is one of the most popular and recognizable of the Halloween-themed slot games. It focuses on vampires and those who hunt them. This means it mines everything from the classic Bram Stoker novel to modern takes like True Blood for its inspiration.
The game has a return-to-player rating of over 96.86%, which is extremely generous and may explain its continued popularity. There are 243 pay lines, which provides you with many ways to win. The result is a consistently exciting game that will have you bearing fangs throughout.
The gameplay takes place on a playfield designed like a Gothic castle. If you can manage to land the scatter symbols you can take part in one of four free spin bonus rounds. These can grant you up to 25 free spins, with each game giving different wild symbols, cascading reels, and multipliers.
Book of Shadows
Book of Shadows may not have all the bonus rounds that come with Immortal Romance, but it does provide a more gentle approach to horror slot games for those who are new to the genre. It takes a more anime approach to its design, touching on themes of paganism with pentagrams and horned goat heads throughout.
The game has a 96.1% return to player rating, so it is still a high-paying title. With 19 paylines it is easy to manage and remain fun to play. However, should you manage to land three scatters and enter the free spins bonus round this can increase to 20. You can also adjust it using the shadow row feature in the game, but this will cost you 50% or double the wager depending on how many reels you want.
