4. Spirits & Spells
Also known as Castleween, Spirits & Spells is a mostly unheard of video game that deals with the subject of Halloween firsthand. The plot follows a group of young children - with no adult supervision - heading deep into the woods to find the perfect house to trick-or-treat upon. Unfortunately for them, all but two are turned to stone by an evil boogeyman. It's up to our two protagonists, dressed as a witch and devil, to defeat this shadow man and set their friends free. The game is a great platformer and is a good deal of fun, but unfortunately hasn't received the praise it deserves. Of all the games on our list, Castleween dominates the Halloween theme. Not only does it actually take place on Halloween, but your characters enter into the world of the dead fighting spiders, skeletons, and other ghouls along the way. You'll learn new spells and gain power over fire and ice to fight your way through this trip to the underworld. Teeming with coffins, graveyards, and numerous amounts of Halloween imagery, Spirits & Spells is one game you don't want to miss if you're dying to experience a Halloween thrill.
