Mall horror games on PlayStation

Horror games set in shopping malls, or with a mall as one of their places. You fight through food courts and shop floors overrun by the dead, search empty plazas for supplies, or walk a closed mall at night where the shutters are down and the music still plays. What frightens is a place built for crowds standing empty, or packed with the wrong kind of crowd.
