Horror Sound Effects - Drones, Whispers and Atmosphere

Thirty horror sound effects for games, film and interactive fiction. Built as a working toolkit rather than a highlight reel: atmospheric beds to sit under a scene, stingers to break it, creature and environment sounds to fill it, and body-level tension cues. Dry enough to process, long enough to loop or trim.


WHAT'S INCLUDED

30 sound effects, uncompressed WAV, 44.1 kHz 16-bit stereo. Every file verified below -0.3 dB true peak after Unity's import re-encode, so nothing clips once imported. Consistent naming, and a README documenting every file.
