Spooky Games to Play in the Dark (and Why You Shouldn’t)

Description

Grab your flashlights and circle up—because it's SPOOKTOBER, and we’re diving into the eerie world of spooky games you should (or really shouldn’t) play in the dark. From classic sleepover dares like Bloody Mary, to modern internet legends like the Elevator Game and the Midnight Game, these rituals blur the line between folklore, fun, and the supernatural.

We’ll uncover the chilling origins of these games, the rules that supposedly summon spirits, and the psychological theories behind why people are drawn to play them. Along the way, expect plenty of creepy storytelling, and of course—our signature blend of humor and shivers.

By the end, you’ll be asking yourself: are these just harmless party tricks… or invitations you should never send?
