Dracula Vs Van Helsing
In this game, players assume the roles of either Dracula or Van Helsing in a 1v1 match. Dracula’s objective is to drain the life out of four citizens in a single district, while Van Helsing must protect those districts by eliminating Dracula. Each round, players draft cards and place them face down in front of the districts. The cards with higher trump order and numbers will determine the winner of that district when the round concludes. Players continuously adjust their hands and draw new cards to outmaneuver their opponent.

Don’t Go in There
This game has the spookiest art compared to all the games on this list, featuring eerie doll-like creatures that, thankfully, haven’t invaded my dreams yet. In this game, players are tasked with entering spooky rooms in a haunted house. The deeper you venture, the less safe you become. Throughout the game, players will acquire curses, and the player with the fewest curses at the end emerges as the winner.

King of Tokyo – Halloween Edition
A classic and beloved game has taken a spooky twist with a Halloween Expansion. It retains the core gameplay rules of the original game while introducing some additional frightful cards into the mix. When setting up a game, be sure to enable the Halloween expansion and consider trying out some of the other expansions available, such as the “Even More Wicked!” events.

Mutant Crops
You thought zombies were a handful? How about crops that have been contaminated by some bizarre chemicals and are now alive! Surprisingly, this might actually work to our advantage. Embrace your inner capitalist and strive to become the top Mutant Crop farmer there is! The player who amasses the most wealth from this venture emerges as the victor.
5.
Ghost At Home
Players enter into their own homes, striving to illuminate all the lights to ward off any ghosts from taking up residence. On each turn, players select one of the three cards in their hand, deciding whether to place a lit room, a cat (offering protection from ghosts), or a ghost in another player’s house. The first player to reach the attic emerges as the victor.

Patchwork Halloween Edition
Prepare for the Halloween season by dusting off your knitting needles and embarking on the ambitious task of crafting the most colossal pumpkin upholstery you’ve ever attempted. Dive into the Halloween-theme of Patchwork on Board Game Arena to get in touch with your crafty and spooky side.
All board games on Board Game Arena are available for free play. However, some games necessitate at least one player with a premium membership. This means that if you prefer to play online with strangers, you can still enjoy these premium games. But if you want to play with friends, at least one of you must have a membership. The good news is that the membership fee is incredibly affordable and won’t send shivers down your wallet.
