Suggestions for text based horror games?

[Neonetik]

I'm in the mood for some really spooky text adventure games in the vein of Zork, or even something with simple vector graphics like Mystery House.

Anyone have any suggestions of where I could find games like this, or just names of games?

Preferably black and white with just text or crude graphics.

Here's an example of what I'm talking about.

I'm sorry, but isn't it more interesting to read horror books than play text games?
Stephen King has many good pieces of this genre.

Anyway, the site below may help you find what you want:

Books are better.

I'm not really interested in books in regard to this to be honest.

A large part of the appeal for me is the dim monitor, the black screen with white text, the slow flashing line waiting for my input, the sound of my computer, the jagged low res text, the puzzle, the fact that I have control. It's a very nostalgic and creepy feeling for me, and I want more of that.

I appreciate the link, but sadly, I already saw that, and it's nothing really like what I'm looking for.

I'm looking for specifically that really old fashion text adventure sort of thing, not just a modern scary text.

The Lurking Horror! I just finished it recently.
