Tri Force Heroes and its collection of suits could not have come along at a more convenient time. It’s Halloween!

When people bring up horror elements in Zelda, they generally go back to the same few choices: the spirit temple, dead hand, the occasional scene from Majora’s Mask… The list goes on.

In honor of Halloween, I thought that, rather than do an impersonal analyzation of what makes certain moments scary, it would be fun to look back on…

In anticipation of the wonderful celebration of Halloween, I have been watching copious amounts of classic horror films– mainly The Omen, Friday the 13th, Nightmare on Elm Street, and my personal favorite, the Michael Myers’ Halloween series. With all the frights I’ve been experiencing, I’ve pretty much got the cheesy-horror-formula and tropes down pat.

Though they may not show up in mirrors, literary vampires are very easy monsters to…

Hey everybody! Welcome back to the Voidcast, and happy belated Halloween! It may be a bit late, but I felt it only right this time of year to discuss the scariest parts of everyone’s favorite action adventure series. Zelda has had its fair share of messed up terror, but what stood out, and what elements of horror in other series could it learn from? It’s a long way to next Halloween, so there’s lots of time to think about it!…

Fear is a subjective thing. What is scary to one person may be only mildly annoying or even amusing to someone else. Even so, there are lots of things in the Zelda franchise that are generally accepted as just plain scary. Click through to see the content of all your Legend of Zelda nightmares.

With Halloween fast approaching, pumpkins everywhere are being carved into jack-o’-lanturns. Whether it’s to keep the spirits of the dead away or just for the fun of it to keep up the tradition, everyone has done it. Though most jack-o’-lanterns will end up with the traditional scary face, there are already many pictures on site of lanterns that have been carved into rather impressive works of art and it’s not long before they are carved to represent all sorts of…
