I don't think that is a real statistic, but i'll keep that in mind.

horror is only scary if your alone. the more people you add to it, the less scary it is. thats why amnesia was not multi.

I think it depends on what the game is about. Like the stairwell, it might make it less scary, but that might be fun. Multiple people in a horror game usually does make stuff less scary, but certain games still have the same amount of horror, even when you feel safe with another person. (SlendeyTubbies, hint hint)

Slendy Tubbies... You mean that someone actually found that scary?

When i played it for the first time and heard the screaming teletubby, i lost a part of my soul... and ears...

SlendyTubbies was quite scary when I played it first time. And I played it with a friend as well. Wasn't exactly helping.

Survivers also enlisted the same rule. It's true that not all games may be scary when coop'd, but there are some that (if effective enough) will counter that.

More people = less scarier? Right. More people = more funny since you will be sh*tting your bricks with friends.

A horror game does NOT have to be scary, a game can still be classified as horror because of horror ELEMENTS, but does NOT have to be scary. Left 4 dead is a horror game, but its main goal is not to scare you. Same with Dead Space's multiplayer.

Containment breach multiplayer mod need. If i knew how to code blitz3d i would

That´s not precisely true, it could make the game just a little bit less scarier if the game has a really good horror ambience.
And it gives the player the advantage of getting fun with some scares here and there with friends. :U

Yeah not true. Who remembers me playing Survivors Beta? Part 2 first scare. Ill reanact the lines:

"Dude stop lying there isnt any monster yet. Ooh! A page! *goes to grab* *Hears scream* WRAHHHHHHHHHHHH!
