In anticipation of Halloween, Fanatical has launched a significant sale, offering excellent deals on horror favorites alongside games incorporating classic genre themes like zombies, vampires, and ghosts. Titles such as Marvel’s Spider-Man Remastered and Miles Morales feature prominently on the Frightfest sale landing page. Given that Spider-Man is a popular Halloween costume, it seems fitting for the theme—plus, both games are nearly 50% off, making them fantastic bargains. Most titles in the sale are Steam keys available for instant redemption.
The individual discounts are enhanced by the newly introduced build-your-own Frightmare Bundle, which allows selection among 19 games, including Doom (2016), The Evil Within 1 and 2, and the Dead Island Definitive Collection which consists of three games. The best part? You can acquire all the mentioned Steam titles for just $11.68 in total.
One of the standout deals we’ve come across is for the newly launched Silent Hill 2 remake, currently available for just $54.59 (originally $70). This remake boasts significantly enhanced gameplay and modern graphics, featuring cutting-edge technology like ray tracing, making it an excellent fit for premium gaming setups. Additionally, it introduces a new over-the-shoulder viewpoint. Keep in mind that this promotion ends after Halloween, so you should act fast to take advantage of this deal. For those interested in a few extra digital perks, consider Silent Hill 2’s Digital Deluxe Edition, which includes a digital art book and soundtrack, priced at $62.39 (down from $80).

If you’re looking to spend Halloween battling zombies, you have plenty of fantastic choices, including the thrilling action-RPG Dead Island 2, currently priced at $22.49 (originally $50). This game offers intense combat and compelling enemies, along with a variety of stats and equipment to oversee. It’s an ideal cooperative experience, perfect for enjoying your Halloween night.
Additionally, there are also PlayStation’s non-zombie titles Days Gone available for $11.49 (formerly $50) and The Last of Us Part I for $32.39 (down from $60). In Days Gone, swift, flesh-eating creatures known as Freakers tend to swarm in large groups (they are technically fast zombies). While it may not rank among the top games from PlayStation Studios over the last decade, there’s still plenty of enjoyment to be found, especially running over zombies on Deacon St. John’s motorcycle. On the other hand, The Last of Us Part I is a superb remake of a cherished classic from PlayStation. Featuring improved mechanics influenced by The Last of Us Part II and enhanced visuals, it’s a great time to add this game to your Steam library for only $32.39 (originally $60).
Frightfest is featuring some special discounts on popular indie games published by Devolver Digital. Cult of the Lamb is currently available at a 50% discount, and it’s likely the most amusing game centered on cult leadership ever created. If you enjoy action-RPGs, rogue-likes, or base management gameplay, this is a title you shouldn’t miss. For rogue-like fans who haven’t yet experienced the intriguing and eerie deck-building game Inscryption, it’s up for grabs for just $8. The less you know about Inscryption beforehand, the more enjoyable it is, as it offers a delightfully twisted experience. If you’re in the mood to take on the role of a monstrous entity, the “reverse horror” game Carrion allows you to wreak havoc as a tentacled monster, and it’s currently priced at just $6.
Some of these discounts will be available past Halloween and into November, so if you spot a game that interests you, make sure to check the store page to catch any ongoing deals.
The Frightmare Bundle is available in three different tiers. You can grab two or more games for $3.33 each, four or more games for $2.92 each, or six or more games for $2.78 each. The more titles you purchase, the greater the savings. Notably, Dead Island Definitive Collection is a great value, as it includes three games: Dead Island Definitive Edition, Dead Island Riptide Definitive Edition, and Dead Island: Retro Revenge.
Here’s a look at the complete list of games available in the bundle:
