Horror shooters and action horror games in VR

9 horror shooters and action horror games in VR, each with a page on what frightens and a link to where it is sold. Fighting the horror head-on with real weapons is the main way to play, in a game whose world, enemies and set pieces are built to frighten. A shooter with one spooky level, or a military shooter with zombies as a mode, does not count; a survival horror game where you are poorly armed belongs on the survival page instead.
