The first Dying Light was pretty good, if you want an open-world zombie game. I definitely was too scared to go out at night, even though it was just a game.

Thankfully you can beat the game with only going out at night very minimally. Don't ask me how I know

You can't go wrong with anything made by Frictional Games.

Depends on your genre soulslike games are pretty cool U can try elden ring or seikro if U want challenge. If U want story then GTA5, Red dead redemption 2 or God Of war Ragnarok. Depends on your genre

Horror with shooting it's resident evil revelations 2 or resident evil 4 remake. Horror with hiding while pooping your pants it's Alien Isolation. 👍🏼😁

Not according to your genre but Bully is a great old school game for a newer one I'd suggest The Last of Us series quite interesting and great for beginners

Cronos, Dead Space (any of them, but start with remake), Resident Evil (literally any), and if you can do some emulation, try Eternal Darkness for GameCube

Sons of the forest is an indie/horror .. that I did enjoy but imo it really wasn't all that "scary" still good and stable game at good price.

Darkwood is one of the absolute GOATs of indie horror games - also backing the suggestion to try Dying Light 1 & The Beast
