Psychological Horror

Horror that challenges the brain and messes with the psyche, leading to a mind-racking experience. 

Suggest updated description

Text based

Focused on using its text, moreso than its visuals or audio, to tell the bulk of its story/plot. (Still can have great audio and visuals, though!)
