The Best Horror Games on Roblox in 2024
Below you’ll find my curated list of the best horror games I’ve played on Roblox. It’s in no way an exhaustive list, as Roblox horror games appear on the platform every month. If your favorite isn’t listed here, let us know about it in the comments below.
17. The Intruder
You’re the next target of a violent criminal that’s on the loose! Hide in your room’s closet when the criminal is close, and watch their every move on your home's cameras to track their location. Will you outlast their attempts to find you, until the phone is repaired, or fight back? Expect a taut horror experience full of jump scares inspired by Five Nights at Freddy’s and The Mandela Catalogue.

16. Escape The Carnival of Terror Obby
Isn’t it just like you to get yourself locked in an abandoned carnival by an evil clown? While you can expect a few minor jump scares, this is more of a horror-themed trap and obby experience than a horror game per se. But you do have to stay away from the killer clown while beating a series of challenging obstacles to escape.

15. The Butchery
Your car breaks down in the middle of nowhere, deep south USA, and two brothers take you in to ‘help’ at their remote cabin. What could possibly go wrong? Expect lots of cool jump scares, awesome graphics, and fun cut scenes in this solo survival horror experience. Avoid the brothers and leave the farmhouse to escape and win, by exploring and solving puzzles.

14. Don’t Scream
Roblox Don’t Scream is a 6 to 12-player horror game in which, you guessed it, you try to make it through the round in one piece. You’ll have to fight off evil spirits with your baseball bat, follow instructions from the Ouija Board, and collect items. You’ll get closer to your goal as you complete these mini-quests, but you’re bound to lose people along the way, making it much tougher.

13. Survive The Killer!
Survive the Killer is one of my personal favorites, as it's inspired by frightening classics while providing a brilliant asymmetrical horror game experience. A new game starts every few minutes and you’ll either be chosen as a survivor or the killer. As a survivor, you’ll need to work as a team to escape while also trying to save your friends.

12. Cheese Escape
While cheese may not give most people nightmares, rats are certainly a staple of the horror genre. In Cheese Escape, you’re thrust into a maze with a bunch of other players and tasked with finding all the cheese. This is made tougher as you’re constantly pursued by a huge, scary rat! You’ll also need to find keys and solve puzzles, escape room style, as you go.
Play Cheese Escape now!
11. The Maze
What I love most about The Maze is that you start out in an open area, allowing you to explore at your own pace which lulls you into a false sense of security. Once you enter the maze, with only a flashlight and camera for company, things immediately start to feel enclosed and claustrophobic. Then you realize your flashlight has limited battery life, and that you’re definitely not alone…

10. 3008
If you want an immersive survival horror experience, then 3008 should be high on your list of Roblox experiences to check out. During the day, you'll gather supplies in a massive furniture store, build your base, and replenish your energy with medkits. But when night falls, will you be able to survive its scary employees?

9. It Lurks
If you prefer a solo Roblox horror game, It Lurks will have you on the edge of your seat. You play as a child who gets sent to bed, but once you wake up, you’re in a house with your family seemingly gone. While you may have been abandoned, you’re definitely not alone. Run, hide, and jump out of your skin as you try to work through a series of scary chapters.
Play It Lurks now!
8. Finders Keepers
As an investigator of the paranormal, Finders Keepers sees you investigating some disturbing events in a family home. A family has disappeared and you’re tasked with finding clues to their disappearance. As you might expect, there's a dark entity at work here and you can expect plenty of jump scares as the story unfolds across a series of dark, eerie rooms.
Play Finders Keepers now!
7. Geisha
The Japanese urban legend Take Teke involves the ghost of a schoolgirl who was cut in half by a train. It inspired a horror film of the same name and now also the classic Roblox horror experience, Geisha. Once again you’ve lost your family, but something is watching you as you explore a house that’s not as empty as you’d like. Another great solo horror experience.
Play Roblox Geisha now!
6. Apeirophobia
One reason Apeirophobia has been such a hit is that it doesn’t really look or feel like a Roblox experience. I was immediately immersed as I walked—and then ran—around the dark, scary corridors. You have to manage your stamina as you solve puzzles to escape while hiding and making breaks for it to stay alive. Don’t forget to breathe!
Play Apeirophobia now!
5. Piggy
Some of the best horror is creepy rather than just flat-out dark or gruesome. Children’s imagery can work brilliantly, and Piggy leans into this in a big way. It starts out as a one-versus-all horror game in which you solve puzzles while keeping away from the villain, Piggy (another player). In addition to finding items you can actually fight and defeat Piggy with, the game has different chapters to progress through.
Play Roblox Piggy now!
4. Doors
To beat Doors, you’ll have to work through procedurally generated levels, solve puzzles, and avoid a huge cast of entities that all have different ways of ruining your day! Sound is key in this jump scare-heavy horror game, as you work through a series of hotel floors looking for the exit. Each floor has its own puzzle and creature, making for a game you’ll keep coming back to for more.
Play Roblox Doors now!
3. Alone in a Dark House
Alone in a Dark House is another horror game for fans of exploration and investigation. The game is a solo or group experience set in—you guessed it—a dark house. It’s incredibly creepy, with a great storyline that opens up as you explore and find more secrets to what has happened here. If you can afford a private server, it's well worth it as the solo experience really makes the game sing.
Play Alone in a Dark House now!
2. The Mimic
As with Geisha, The Mimic takes urban legends made to scare kids and turns them into a Roblox horror game that is likely to scare just about anyone. You can play solo or in a group, and it is packed full of jump scares (both visual and audio) within imaginative levels that are completely terrifying.

1. Dead Silence
Dead Silence has been at the top of the Roblox game charts for more than a decade, which speaks for itself. Join up to three friends and explore an abandoned building to find the keys you need to escape while avoiding the deadly entity lurking in the darkness. With jump scares in all the right places, an eerie soundscape that’ll keep you on edge, and a constantly foreboding atmosphere, Dead Silence is the pinnacle of Roblox horror.
