The horror genre has never been more popular than it is at the moment; the past ten years have assailed us with an endless horde of zombie movies, survival horror films such as Saw and Hostel and some niche vampire flicks such as Blade and Underworld.
Online slots developers have been quick to make the most of the popularity of this genre and below we present five of the best horror-themed slots we’ve encountered.
