Horror games with fog on GOG

In these games fog is more than weather. It hangs over fields, parks, seas and towns, cutting how far you can see, so a shape, a sound or a light ahead is all you have before something is close. You walk, sail or run into the grey anyway, because the way forward lies inside it.
