CCTV horror games

In these games you watch a place through security cameras. You flick between grainy feeds of rooms, halls and vents, looking for movement, and you learn that what you see on a monitor may already be somewhere else. In a few, the cameras watch you instead and raise the alarm. The fear is in the gap between feeds, in a screen that has gone dark, and in a figure closer than it was a moment ago.
