Games Like P.T.: First-Person Haunted Houses and Hallways

P.T., the playable teaser for the cancelled Silent Hills, put you in one looping hallway of a suburban house that grew more wrong every time you walked it. Konami pulled it from the PlayStation Store in 2015, but these games carry on its idea: first-person haunted homes and loops that change as you look away.

The games

6 of the 8 games in this guide are not on Mac and are left out. Show them all.

  1. Unbridled Horror key art: the title over a blood-red rocky landscape with a dark figure with glowing red eyes PsychologicalUnbridled HorrorA first-person, P.T.-style house of unexplained things, with a flashlight, puzzles and a button to close your eyes.
  2. Layers of Fear screenshot: a first-person hand holds up a glowing lantern before a mansion staircase buried under a heap of framed paintings, with a dark figure in the glow PsychologicalLayers of FearAn artist's mansion that rebuilds itself behind your back, room by room.

Visage is the fullest game built in P.T.'s mould: a large, dim house where families were murdered and people went insane, with rooms that shift when you look away, ghosts that watch and follow, and a sanity that drains in the dark. MADiSON is denser and louder, a puzzle-driven house of jump scares in which an old instant camera shows you what is really in the room. Infliction keeps the photorealistic family home frozen by tragedy, piecing its story together from letters and keepsakes while a spirit stalks you.

Konami's own SILENT HILL: The Short Message is the closest you can get to the series P.T. was made for: a free first-person game on PS5 in which a girl, lit only by her phone, walks a crumbling apartment block that turns into otherworldly spaces. Unbridled Horror, made on Game Jolt, calls itself P.T.-style outright, a house of unexplained things with a flashlight and a button to close your eyes.

Layers of Fear takes the changing house and makes it a painter's mansion that rebuilds itself behind your back. For the loop itself, CAPTURED turns your own late-90s home into an endless hallway in which you film whatever has changed to find a way out, and The Exit 8 does the same in a white-tiled Japanese subway passage in under an hour.

If you only try one, play Visage for the closest feel to what P.T. promised, or SILENT HILL: The Short Message if you have a PS5 and want Konami's own take for free.
