dc.description.abstract Horror games are quite popular in the gaming industry due to humanity's fascination with fear and adrenaline. The physiological effects of adrenaline rushing into the bloodstream and psychological consequences, such as desensitization to fear, are an integral part of playing horror games. Despite the likelihood of negative effects, as the authors warn about before the start of a gaming session, horror games can and will have a positive impact on the player’s health, both physical and psychological.Horror games challenge players to confront their fears while being in a safe environment. Many authors delve into various psychological and social topics, which attracts potential players. Despite the creepy and frightening content of most games in this genre, many people find comfort and pleasure in the immersive experience. en_US
