Steam’s spine-chilling Halloween sale has begunSpooky scary savings.

Spooky scary savings.

Running from today through November 2nd,The Steam Halloween Sale 2020is back, with bone-chilling discounts on countless games regardless of how scary they may be. If you are in the mood for a scare, though, then this year’s event does conveniently offer different lineups for Horror games, plus non-horror works that just happen to contain terrifying themes.

Spooky events? For me? Aw, you shouldn’t have.

Valve themselves have even brought backDota 2’sinfamous Diretide eventfor the first time in seven years. Seven years! Why, it feels like only yesterday the feeds were plastered with “volvo giff diretide?

As for deals, its your usual affair of small-to-massive price-cuts on pretty much every game sitting on Steam. Current horror game de jourPhasmophobiamight only a paltry 10% off, but bothAmnesia: The Dark DescentandA Machine For Pigsare going for pennies with a 90% discount - perfect to get you tuned in ahead ofAmnesia: Rebirth.

I’m kinda surprised to see such paltry options fromSteam’s new points shop, mind. Valve made a big fuss over their introduction back in this year’s summer sale, but even compared tothat event’s underwhelming offerings, the Halloween items are a bit naff - just one background and one frame to spend your nonsensical e-bucks on.

The Steam Halloween sale wraps up at 5pm UK time on Monday - enough time to snag a last-minute spook before we all hunker down for the long, cold winter ahead.
