4 Scary Games You Can Play at Night

Remember being ten years old and trying to be cool around your friends at a sleepover when you suggested that you guys should try to conjure Bloody Mary or The Boogeyman, only to end up freaking out and calling your mom to take you home? Well, in honor of nostalgia, I've found some creepy games that you can play by yourself, or with friends, in case you still want to be cool or just love adrenaline rushes. WARNING: PLAY THESE AT YOUR OWN RISK. They have been ranked from least to most scary (according to me, anyway). Have fun!

1. Doors of Your Mind

This game seems harmless enough. All you really have to do is sit in a room by yourself, close your eyes, and imagine your mind as a corridor full of doorways. You choose which doors to open, but be careful - some doors can contain bad energies and trap you in them. I think this game is just scary because it allows you to go through every crevice of your mind, even ones that you wanted to keep away forever.

2. The Answer Man

Traditionally, this game is played with ten people. But not everyone knows ten people so I'm sure this game would work with any even number of people (that's 2, 4, 6, etc.). Each of you will need to call the person to your left - but you have to make sure you all hit the call button at the same time, or else the game will fail. If you all get a busy signal, the game is over. But, if one person doesn't receive a busy signal, then they get to talk to the Answer Man. They can ask the Answer Man any question they want, and the Answer Man will ask a question back that the person has to answer. This can last as long as the person wants, but when the call is at its end the person needs to tell the Answer Man that he has to go and keep being persistent. IF THE ANSWER MAN TRIES TO BRIBE THE CALLER WITH FREE INFORMATION, DO NOT STAY ON THE LINE.

3. Three Kings

In a dim-lit room, place two mirrors on two chairs facing each other, and a chair in between the two, facing one of the mirrors. The third chair is your throne, making you the king. One of the mirrors is your Queen and the other is your Fool. But remember, the game is called Three Kings, which means that you're a Fool to one of them, and a Queen to the other. The idea of this game is to reach the "Shadowside", whatever that is. Maybe it's just mediation, or maybe it's something a little darker. But maybe it's just your eyes playing tricks on you.

4. One Person Hide and Seek

I'm not sure why anyone would play this game, as it is the creepiest one I could find. This is a single player game, unless you count a doll/stuffed animal as a player. You set up a doll or stuffed animal somewhere and you have to find it. But after you find it, it has to find you. If it doesn't find you and you can avoid the doll/stuffed animal, you have to find it to end the game. Be warned though, you might not find the doll where you left it.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
