What are the best Roblox horror games? These experiences are perfect if you want some spooks, offering a wide range of experiences from all corners of the horror genre. Some offerings even come from official IPs, including the likes of Poppy Playtime and Saw. Others are a great alternative to games, such as Dead by Daylight.

Here are the best Roblox horror games:

Survive the Killer

If horror movies for the ’70s, ’80s, and ’90s are your thing, then Survive the Killier is the Roblox horror game for you, giving you the chance to see what it’s like to be Jason, Michael, Freddy, Ghost Face, Lethearface, and more.

As the bloodthirsty killer, you need to try and kill as many players as possible before they either escape or the time runs out. Alternatively, as a survivor, you need to work as a team and try to escape together. If you’re a fan of Friday the 13th or Dead by Daylight, you’ll feel right at home here.

The Apartment

You get a message from your friend beckoning you to go to his apartment building and reach his room, 705. One problem. It doesn’t look as though anybody really does call this building home. Still, like most suckers in a horror game or movie, you march on ahead, blissfully unaware of the dangers that await you.

There are twists and turns aplenty in The Apartment; you never know what’s lurking around every corner. This is a good choice for those who like a bit of psychological and supernatural horror from their Roblox horror games.

Roblox horror games: two characters from Piggy holding baseball bats

Piggy

You’ll never look at Peppa Pig the same way after playing this Robloc horror game. We can guarantee you that. As our Roblox Piggy guide explains, you play as a police officer who’s investigating the disappearance of George Pig, and your detective work leads you into a fight for your life.

You need to evade capture across various maps as a murderous family seeks to make you their next victim. Truly, Piggy has you on the edge of your seat, as escape is seemingly impossible.

SAW X: Survive the Obby

Sticking with experiences that take inspiration from existing IPs, except going one step further, is SAW X: Survive the Obby. Why is this one step further than Griefville? It’s simple, really. This game comes to you from Six Flags Fright Fest, Twisted Pictures, and Lionsgate, the latter two of which are the producers and distributors, respectively, of the Saw movies.

In SAW X: Survive the Obby, you find yourself in the fight of your virtual life, as it’s your turn to experience the horror of a Jigsaw trap. Except, like the main unfortunate victims in the movie, you have to survive a series of traps in an obstacle course hosted by Billy the Puppet.

Also, just like in the movies, you do have a time limit, so you’d best figure out how to escape the traps quickly. We should note that there is a lot of blood in the game, and that’s why it has a 17+ age rating.

Roblox horror games, Winnie the Pooh chashing people through the forest

POOH

Don’t worry, POOH isn’t as diabolical as Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey, so kids can actually enjoy it. Well, we say that, it might still be terrifying to have your childhood pal trying to kill you regardless. Pooh Bear is meant to be a loving, loyal, and adorable rotund bear with a love for honey, not a monster that chases you through the words.

Still, in POOH, the aim of the game is to escape the creepy teddy bear – what a way to ruin your nice vacation at a gorgeous five-star resort. You need to navigate corridors, hide in rooms, and be ready to run for your life. Good luck, you might need it.

Poppy Playtime: Forever

Okay, I love Poppy Playtime. I could talk about Poppy Playtime’s Kissy Missy all day, I think she’s a pink fuzzy pal that needs protecting. Well, in Poppy Playtime: Forever, an official game from Jazwares and Mob Entertainment, you need to deal with her worser half once more – Poppy Playtime’s Huggy Wuggy.

In Forever, you need to solve puzzles with your friends and attempt to escape the Playtime Co. Superstore, though that’s easier said than done, thanks to the toys that want to kill you. Still, if you work with your pals, you might have a chance at survival.

One of the best things about this game is that it features user-generated content. You can create your own levels and play the ones that come from other players, meaning there’s always something new to experience each time you play.

Stop it, Slender!

Okay, so you all know the creepypasta, and even if you don’t, surely you know all about Slender Man through numerous games, internet stories, and the god-awful movie. If you don’t, I have to question where you’ve been, as Slendy has been haunting the world for years at this point.

As the name clearly states, Stop it, Slender! is a Slender Man game on Roblox. It adopts the exact same premise as Slender Man: The Eight Pages and Slender: The Arrival. You need to find the eight pages while the notorious villain hunts you down. With each page you find, Slender Man gets increasingly more aggressive, making it harder and harder to survive.

Well, we say that, how efficient Slender Man is actually comes down to who plays as him. In a similar manner to Dead by Daylight, you can actually play as the killer, hunting down your would-be victims. If the tall being in the black suit is a horror icon to you, perhaps our Roblox Slender guide will be of interest.

Roblox horror games Dead Silence keyb art showing a scary face peeking through a crack in the darkness

Dead Silence

“Beware the stare of Mary Shaw. She had no children, only dolls. If you see her in your dreams, be sure you never, ever scream.” Those lovely words come from a nursery rhyme about Mary Shaw, the evil ventriloquist from the 2007 supernatural horror film Dead Silence.

Lucky for you guys (or, maybe it’s unlucky, actually), Dead Silence the Roblox experience is based on the movie of the same name. It throws you in at the deep end, asking you to investigate the case of Mary Shaw, and that means trying to survive as she and her dolls try to kill you.

You can play with up to three other players, so perhaps you can use them as a body shield or throw them to the dolls to make your escape. It’s every person for themselves when a scary lady like this is trying to get you.

Rainbow Friends

Rainbow Friends is a bit of a must-play when it comes to Roblox horror games, especially if you enjoy Poppy Playtime and Five Nights at Freddy’s. You and your pals are on a lovely school field strip, but it turns into a nightmare when you get kidnapped at Oddworld Park.

Now, you have a fight for survival on your hands, as you need to keep yourself alive for five nights (that sounds awfully familiar) while avoiding the Ranbox Friends, a colorful bunch of mascots who aren’t as friendly as they first appear.

Roblox horror games - some key art from Elmira showing an abandoned school bus in front of some trees at sunset

Elmira

Elmira is peak horror on Roblox, so make sure you give this one a try. From the get-go, the game is creepy, with an intense atmosphere that remains present throughout its three chapters.

The premise is simple: you fall asleep on the school bus during a trip, and while you might have been having a pleasant dream, you awake to a total nightmare. You’re alone on the bus, the teachers and students are missing, and all that’s nearby is an old hospital. If you like urban legends and are familiar with the Black Eyed Children, you might have an idea of what’s going on.

Roblox horror games: Key art from Midnight Terror showing the game name in front of a deserted store

Midnight Terror

One of the oldest horror tropes out there is ‘things happening at midnight,’ and that’s especially true for the poor person working the graveyard shift at a store or gas station.It’s no surprise that Roblox has many experiences like this, though the most popular one is Midnight Terror.

You get to do the usual stuff, like refilling shelves and tidying up, but you’re not alone. No, it’s not because there’s a customer. Well, there might be at some point, but there’s also an evil shadowy creature that’s out to get you. With three endings available, it’s fair to say that there’s both a good and bad ending for you to experience – good luck.

Roblox horror games: Key art for It Lurks showing a bare bedroom with a bed and wardrobe

It Lurks

It Lurks is a single-player Roblox experience, so you can’t grab your buddy and throw them to the wolves to save yourself in this one. The concept is simple: you, the player, go to sleep and wake up to some strange happenings in your house. Surely you’re dreaming? Well, it doesn’t feel like it, especially when evil beings harm your father and brother.

What is the scariest game on Roblox?

Horror is subjective. What you find scary might not even crack the top ten for someone else, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t a Roblox horror game out there that doesn’t cause terror for the majority of people who play it. I consider The Mimic to be the scariest game on Roblox. You likely want to know what gives The Mimic such a high honor, and that’s fair enough.

The Mimic shows you the dark side of Japanese history, embracing various urban legends and bringing them to life in the most sinister of ways. We can all agree that Japanese horror makes for some of the most terrifying experiences out there. Just look at Fatal Frame and Forbidden Siren.

However, unlike those games, The Mimic features four unique stories (of which the first book and most of the second book are available), each with its own narrative, characters, and inspiration from an urban legend. One very famous figure that inspires the big bad in the first book, Control, is the slit-mouthed woman, known in Japanese folklore as Kuchisake-Onna. One look at the demon, and you can very clearly see how the developers took the appearance of Kuchisake-Onna and molded it into their image.

The legend of the Slit-Mouthed Woman is horrifying, so you’d best believe that Control has you on the edge of your seat as death lurks around every corner. It’s much of the same in each chapter, except subsequent ones have different urban legends and folklore interweaved with them.

If you love urban legends, Japanese horror and folklore, and survival horror, you need to look no further than The Mimic.

And there you have it, our picks for the best Roblox horror games and the scariest game on Roblox. Now go and look at our guides on the best Roblox games and Roblox anime games to see what else is out there. We recommend Roblox Fisch, and we have a Fisch codes list to give you a head start.
