Halloween Slots

As we said, there are a number of different ways you can go with the Halloween theme, which has made this a fruitful place to start from for slots developers. There are countless costumes and monsters associated with the holiday, and all of them can be found somewhere at an Internet casino. Throw in jack-o-lanterns, graveyards, animals from cats to bats and spooky insects, and the full moon, and you start to get an idea of how many symbols creators can work with when putting together these games.

It’s not always clear where the line between a true Halloween slot and a game that uses scary or horror-themed imagery stands. That makes it hard, in some cases, to truly know if something is a “real” Halloween machine or a more generally spooky game. Our opinion, simply put, is “who cares?” If it looks and feels like a game that you’d feel appropriate playing on the holiday, it should count when talking about Halloween slots.

With that in mind, there are a lot of games out there that you could potentially classify in this category. The ones we’ll talk about here are a few of our favorites, but if none of them are to your tastes, don’t worry: there are plenty of others out there, and it is likely that one of them has exactly what you’re looking for. Almost every online casino has at least one Halloween game, so your options are wide open in this area. The following are some of the games in this theme that we enjoy playing:

• Halloween (Euro Games Technology): Okay, if there’s one game that definitely fits the theme, it has to be this one – the name is right in the title! In this game, you’ll see a mix of autumn colors that truly bring out that holiday feel. The symbols also work towards this, as they include baskets of candy, a bevy of scary animals, and a couple of very scary costumes (or are they real monsters?). With wilds, scatters, and a free spins bonus, this is a good way to get an authentic holiday experience while still enjoying classic slots features.

• Halloween Fortune (Playtech): Another game that clearly belongs in this category, this Playtech creation features some sexy witches as the centerpiece to a game that features most of the traditional holiday animals and a few things you might see those witches use when casting spells. There’s also a Witches’ Brew bonus round in which you’ll pick your favorite witch, help them brew a potion, and earn free spins along with a big multiplier.

• The Ghouls (Betsoft): If you’re looking for something a bit more cartoonish, this game might fit the bill. You can see monsters, mummies, witches and more, but none of them are particularly frightening, even with a slightly spooky soundtrack behind the action. There’s even a major progressive jackpot that you can win – a result that would definitely beat even the biggest trick-or-treating haul!

• Immortal Romance (Microgaming): Heading outside of the strict definition of this theme, this classic Microgaming slot is all about vampires. What better way to spend the spookiest day of the year than with these evil blood suckers? With a great soundtrack and amazing 243 Ways action, Immortal Romance might just send chills down your spine any night of the year.

• Trick or Treat (Saucify): Do you miss the fun of heading out around your neighborhood and collecting candy? You can relive that glory on this machine, which is definitely all about the fun and excitement of dressing up and going door to door to get goodies. Symbols include costume elements like masks and fake blood, bags of delicious sweets, and friendly looking trick-or-treaters. A scatter symbol even offers you a way to earn up to 20 free spins, each of which will come with double the normal winnings.
