Tip 2: Play at night
Now, this one is obvious. All horror games were meant to be played in the night. You cannot play them during the day as it will take the fun away. If you really want to be scared play at night alone after 12.
That is sure to make you have nightmares. Horror Games are at their best after 12.

Tip 3: Headphones or High-end speakers
Now horror games are incomplete without headphones or high-end speakers. Even better if they have to surround sound. The ghost scream should be loud enough to make your legs wobble. Games like Outlast 2 are the best when played with headphones. The silence and death stalking can give your the scare high you need.
So play horror games with a good sound system with surround sound.
