Before diving into this month’s latest edition of Horror Bytes, check out last week’s episode with Jake Dekker on The Last of Us Part I (There’s also a bonus episode where we interview Immortality composer Nainita Desai).
Happy spooky season, everyone!
And what better way to kick off the scariest season of the year than with a new SPECIAL edition of Horror Bytes, the indie horror segment in which Neil and I each highlight several bite-sized indie titles.
What makes this month’s especially spooky? This week, we’re joined by the indie horror curator @HorrorVisuals (aka Hurc), who has brought four of his favorite bite-sized indie frights to the table this month.
So pour yourself a warm beverage, grab your favorite comfy blanket, and tune in for some indie horror titles you can’t miss.
And as always, we ask that if you can do so,
support the developers behind these games through their itch.io, steam, or Patreon pages.
