Anchorhead! text adventure from 1998 i just finished, atmospheric and very scary despite having no graphics! i applaud anyone who managed to finish it without a walkthrough.

phantasmagoria sierra point and click from 1995! scared the **** out of me when i was like 12 lol!

the sequel also on gog might be worth a look in the so bad its good kinda way lol.

though your better off getting the cd version off ebay and installing this patch to play it

http://www.squirtthecat.com/games/phantasmagoria_2/index.html

get way better gfx that way! the download version of the original phant is fine tho!

i wish someone would do a kickstarter and make a phantasmagoria 3!

gabriel knight series worth a look too, horror rthemed but focuses more on the mystery with harder puzzles and technically a better game than phantasmagoria.

my fav was gabriel knight 2 though most people would say the original was better, i just really liked fmv!

yeah for got about waxworks and personal nightmare, managed to finisgh waxworks a while back. my favourite was Elvira mistress of the dark the adventure game, made by the same people as waxworks and personal nightmare.

don't think its available to download legally unfortunatly, I got a boxed version with elvira 1, 2 (which wasnt so good) and waxworks a long time ago from adventuresoft/horrorsofts website! they were the same people who made the original simon the sorcerers!

edit hey wow its still there!

wonder why they dont release the elvira games on gog when they have everything else. they work fine through dosbox/scummvm despite it saying win95/98 only lol
