Man the board game community is serious.
The amount of time I've spent on the website Board Game Geek is absurd.
Saaaaaame. I love it.
There are so many games that I would never have known about if I hadn't randomly stumbled across them on BGG.
I definitely recommend Arkham Horror: card game. The learning curve is steep but it’s so much fun!
I've played Arkham Horror before, but never the card game. A few people I see at board game meet ups here in the Cleveland area have said it is the best game they've ever played. I really need to get it on my table some day.
Happy cake day OP and thank you for putting together such a comprehensive list!
I would like to add a recommendation for the Alien RPG. Even the Starter Set alone does a fantastic job of capturing the spirit of the first movie, despite having different aliens (no spoilers but any Alien and TTRPG fan should check it out!)
Thanks! The Keep is one of my favorite horror movies and I think it is a tragically underrated movie. I was shocked to find out that there had been a board game based on it. It also reminded me of how surprised I was when I found out that there were games based on My Bloody Valentine and Silent Night Deadly Night, so it inspired me to compile as comprehensive of a horror movie board game list as I could.
Absolutely amazing work, fair play!
I’d like to throw in a rec for Dread, not based on a horror movie but a horror TTRPG where moves are determined by taking a turn at a Jenga tower. Really creates some tense moments!
That sounds awesome! I see that I can get Dread through Noble Knight Games, so I might pick up a copy sometime. There is a really awesome game called Nyctophobia where each player wears these black glasses and you have to play the game by sense of touch. I haven't played it yet, but there is a game called Black Mold where you are trying to escape from a dungeon prison filled with poisonous fungus and each player's turn lasts for as long as they can hold their breath.

Thanks for the compilation! Got another one for ya, Scream: the Game https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/386135/scream-the-game
I forgot that Funko had put out a Scream game. Thanks for reminding me!
