Party horror games

In these games the horror starts at a party: a Halloween house party in costume, a last night at summer camp with no adults around, a reunion with pizza and drinks. You mingle, talk to guests and move through rooms full of strangers, and the noise and crowd make it hard to tell when the night has turned.
