I would recommend Yuppie Psycho. It is about 80% creepy and 20% horrow. That is not exactly what you wanted, but I think it is a good game regardless. https://store.steampowered.com/app/597760/Yuppie_Psycho_Executive_Edition/

Bendy and the ink machine
Never heard of it before this comment but the steam page looks interesting. I’ll look into it more, thanks!
Subnautica is not a horror game, and was not intended to be scary; and yet the way it captures the dark, oppressive nature of deep waters makes it an extremely terrifying experience.
I want a second little monsters and little monsters two, those are great and creepy.
And I'd also like to mention a game I just played called the alien cube, which is like a lovecraftian story that you're the star of. It's really good and a couple parts are genuinely nerve-wracking,l. there's not so much outright horror as there is pervasive creepiness and sudden high tension moments.

Cultist simulator! It's a single player (card/board?) game inspired by gothic horror
Oh interesting! Very different than anything I’ve heard suggested so far. It looks super cool!
FEAR hits this nicely, but maybe is a little more towards “horror” than you’re looking for. Although it’s not as horror as Dead Before Daylight.

I'm playing The Long Dark and I think it fits what you are looking for, however it is a survival game so if your not looking for a walking simulatior steer clear.
The premise is your plane was brought down by an eletro magnetic storm in the Canadian wilderness mid winter and you have to survive and unravel the mystery of what's happening.
Very creepy, lonely vibes with some really unsettling sequences, but no jump scares or anything.
That could be alright then. I also like the Canadian representation :) I’ll check it out, thanks
Bramble is a new game that's kinda got those limbo vibes, but with Scandinavian/Norse tones to the story. I beat it in one setting in about 4 hours, but it was the most gripping experience with a game I've had in a few years. There's a few mechanic switches, the final level is an awesome visual and musical fest, and the second to last boss fight was one of the most creative bosses I think I've ever seen in a game.
It's also on Gamepass right now so it's "free" if you have that.
I do have GamePass so I’ll be trying it for sure. Thanks for the suggestion!
Bloodborne in my first play through was one of the scariest game I've ever played.
I want to play Bloodborne so bad. If they weren’t so expensive I’d buy a PS5 just to play Bloodborne and the Demon’s Souls remake. I do have access to OG Demon’s Souls through PS3 emulation and I’ve put in a few hours but I’m going to try to 100% the Dark Souls trilogy first. If they ever port Bloodborne to pc though I’m buying it in a heartbeat it looks fantastic.
I’m aware I could buy a PS4 for Bloodborne and I do consider it sometimes. I recently got a pretty big promotion/raise at work so maybe now would be a good time to treat myself.
Congrats for your promotion!!!
I've played all of Soulsbourne/ Elden ring games, and bloodborne for me is still the best game. First time playing it was an experience cannot be repeated by any other kind of media consuming. The atmosphere, the soundtrack of the game, the vibe it gives, the gameplay of course are a league of itself.
I don't want to give you spoilers here, but the first half of the game feels really like a Victorian horror movie but the hell breaks loose first in the second half of the game.
Extremely recommended.
