What frightens Left alone at home on Halloween night, you keep answering knocks at the door. The visitors wear masks and want candy, and some of them, a pumpkin-headed figure among them, are less friendly than the rest.

Content: masked monsters, fire, mild swearing.

A short first-person horror game set on Halloween night. You are home alone, handing out candy to masked visitors at the door, and some of those visitors are monsters. It mixes comedy with horror and takes about an hour.

About Invasion of The Halloween Fiends

Invasion of The Halloween Fiends is a first-person horror game from MyGrandfather Games, released on Steam for Windows on 1 October 2024. It is set on Halloween night in a quiet suburb of porches, picket fences, pumpkins and hay bales.

You are left at home alone to enjoy the holiday, which mostly means answering the knock at the door. Masked monsters keep turning up asking for candy. Some are harmless, some are not, and the night does not stay on the doorstep: the screenshots show fire in the street, a figure in rags running up the path and something wrong inside the house.

The maker describes it as a blend of comedy and horror, and it plays that way: the waiting at the door and the masks are meant to make you uneasy, while the visitors and the dialogue keep a lighter tone. It is short, at about an hour, and cheap.

It suits players who want a quick, seasonal scare for an October evening, especially anyone who liked the idea of games about who is knocking at your door.

How to play Invasion of The Halloween Fiends

  1. Start the night at home and get used to the house and the front door.
  2. Answer each knock and deal with the masked visitor asking for candy.
  3. Watch the visitors closely, since some of them are not friendly.
  4. Follow what the game tells you when things go wrong and survive until the night ends.
