Top 5 Scary Games

Published on 29th October 2019 by Ben

*Warning* You’ve entered the NetEnt Casino scare-zone, featuring the slots with the freakiest atmospheres, the spine-chillingest characters and the hair-raisingest pay outs (these are still casino games after all!)

Wearing adult-nappies, in case you have a little fear-wee, is completely socially acceptable here, so pull those pampers up and let’s get started…

1) The Wolf’s Bane

The Wolf's Bane Halloween Games

Pablo Escobar, the inspiration for Narcos, infamously gave his rivals two choices – silver or lead.

The deal in ‘The Wolf’s Bane’ is much more sinister – silver or dead. If you don’t have any silver bullets, you’re dinner for a ferocious and savage Werewolf.

This 5 reel, 3 row and 10 Payline video slot has lots of exciting features that’ll keep you playing, no matter how freaked out you are by the soundtrack.

That is truly saying something because the creepy atmospheric background sounds really help make this game something special, so congratulations to the NetEnt sound design team!

2) Halloween Jack

Many people will spend Halloween getting legless – perhaps by experimenting with some spooky-themed Halloween cocktails – but hopefully, they won’t be getting headless, like the star of NetEnt’s Halloween Jack.

If you love mysticism, hell hounds and decapitated pumpkin heads – this game was made for you. It’s based on the horror story about the Headless Horseman, a spooky ghoul in search of his noggin.

For the less freaky among us who just love a good slot game, this one is also a great pick for that reason.

Halloween Jack is a 5 reel, 3 row slot with 20 fixed pay lines and has several interesting features such as Walking Wilds, Free Spins and a special “Jack ‘o’ Lector” mode.

What’s so special about this mode? Well, you’re tasked with collecting lantern symbols on the slot reel, which will reward you with 1 of 3 pleasant Wild symbol surprises:

3 lanterns = a Stacked Hell Hound Wild
6 lanterns = a Stacked Jack ‘o’ Lantern Wild
9 lanterns = an Expanding Death Reaper Wild

3)Blood Suckers 1 and 2

If you’re thirsty for something red, warm and oddly metallic-tasting, then we’ve got two games for you.

NetEnt’s Bloodsuckers series is one of its most popular and pays homage to both stylish and the pure evil of vampire kind.

Blood Suckers

The first Blood Suckers was an instant success and became one of the fundamental casino games to play around this time of year – i’m sure you can guess why!

This 5 reel, 3 row and 25 pay line game has multiple features including a special ‘Vampire Hunt’ bonus game.

During this feature, you’ll be confronted with coffins from an ancient burial tomb. Your goal is to open the coffins to potentially reveal a sleeping vampire.

For every vampire you find you’ll receive coins. If you find a bat instead, the bonus game will come to an end.

Blood Suckers 2

Sequels are cursed, it’s very hard to make 2nd or 3rd games that are as popular as a first.

Well, the vampires in Blood Suckers 2 may be cursed (with a thirst for blood), but the game itself wasn’t cursed!

With a high return-to-player ratio of 98%, improved graphics and more features – Blood Suckers 2 equalled, if not exceeded the popularity of its predecessor.

4) Ghost Pirates

One-Eyed Ed, Peggy Rotten, Polly and the Mad Monkey are a “part of the ship and part of the crew” haunting the reels of NetEnt’s Ghost Pirates.

Released in 2013, this slot clearly took influence by the blockbuster Pirates Of The Caribbean series, but gave the concept a fun and cartoonish flick.

Does it hold up today? From a visual perspective, it’s definitely aged well – looking just as colourful, fun and exciting as it did 6 years ago.

There’s a noticeable lack of special features though, a trademark of more modern NetEnt games, so the game does start to feel as stale as ship’s biscuits after a while.

5) Ozzy Osbourne

Ozzy Osbourne Video Slot Banner Okay, we’re cheating here a little. NetEnt’s Ozzy Osbourne slot doesn’t actually launch until 21st November 2019, but we had to add it to this list because we’re really excited for it.

Anyway, Ozzy chewed the head of a bat for Satan’s sake – if he doesn’t belong on a freaky Halloween list, who does?

NetEnt are honouring the prince of darkness with a special game featuring lots of features that’ll keep you aboard the crazy train for hours.

Looking For Halloween Bonuses?

At NetEnt Casino, Halloween is a hauntingly big thing for us. We freakin love it.

That’s why we’ve bothered our design team to create so many weird and wonderful Halloween Graphics and even created a separate page dedicated to casino Halloween Bonuses.

Whether you stay in and watch some scary films or get dressed up to terrify the neighbours this Halloween, we hope you have a good one!

All the best,

The creepy, slimy Halloween-loving fiends at NetEnt Casino.
