Roblox Horror Game Ideas

Roblox horror games are about tension: dark hallways, strange noises, and a monster you hope doesn't find you. The best ones are spooky and fun rather than gory.

Pick a setting that feels safe in real life, like a school, a mall, or a toy store, and then make it creepy with one rule players must follow to survive.
