Thirty horror sound effects for games, film and interactive fiction. Built as a working toolkit rather than a highlight reel: atmospheric beds to sit under a scene, stingers to break it, creature and environment sounds to fill it, and body-level tension cues. Dry enough to process, long enough to loop or trim.

LEVELS

Every file is verified below -0.3 dB true peak, measured after a lossy engine-import re-encode rather than only as a source file. Compression on import can lift peaks by over 1 dB, so the whole set carries additional headroom to survive it without clipping.
