What frightens You walk the long, red-carpeted corridors and plain rooms of an infamous hotel where a serial killer is probably somewhere inside, and the quiet, ordinary spaces build the wait for something to happen.

Death Trips is an extremely short first-person horror game by Forameuss, made in two days to celebrate Halloween. You explore an infamous hotel where a serial killer is probably waiting somewhere inside. It is a download for Windows and macOS, and you name your own price.

About Death Trips

Death Trips was made by Alberto Navarro, who works as Forameuss, in two days as a Halloween game, with his own code, music and sound and 3D models from the Unity Asset Store and OpenGameArt. He wrote that two years after its release it had been downloaded more than 100,000 times, and it is one of the most-rated Halloween horror games on itch.io.

You walk in first person through an infamous hotel: a long corridor of white doors and red carpet under dim ceiling lamps, a sitting room with blue sofas and dark old paintings, a window streaked with rain. The game tells you only that a serial killer is probably inside.

Its horror is in that probably. The spaces are plain and quiet, and the short time you spend there is mostly waiting for the moment the hotel stops being ordinary.

It suits players who want a quick Halloween scare to try in a few minutes, or to show friends.
