Fighting without fear in Fortnite: a list of horror maps

Unlike other categories, horror maps in Fortnite can be interesting with a small number of online players. They usually focus on creating an atmospheric experience. Players typically play them once or twice before seeking new ones. Because of this, the online presence doesn't always reflect the quality and true popularity.

Here are the scary Fortnite map codes to try out the ones that will interest you. To do this, go to the official website, enter the code in the search bar at the top right corner of the screen.

THE BACKROOMS

Players must choose from identical corridors to escape from whimsical creatures. Initially, no one is chasing the player, but an enemy could be around any corner. This creates an uncomfortable atmosphere. Users can't feel safe when a monster could be anywhere, and the labyrinth constantly sows doubt. You might ask, "Have I been here before?"

The simple yet no less terrifying concept of the Backrooms is often used in enthusiast projects. Here, users can also find a small but quality game within such a setup.

SUBWAY ESCAPE

A time-tested horror map. If you haven't tried it yet, now is the time to wander through the dark subway. A flashlight must always be at hand. Explore everything even after passing the main location. The deeper the player immerses in the atmosphere, the greater the chance of having a pleasant experience in the game.

THE BIGFOOT

The map offers the exploration of a location in the form of a compact open world. It has some atmosphere, but mostly, the essence lies in capturing a terrifying beast. This quest might suit those who prefer to be hunters rather than victims.

CARNIVAL ESCAPE

The Fortnite horror map is designed for a large number of players, unlike the others. Up to sixteen people can find themselves locked up at night on a deserted carnival square. As with other similar locations, the main task here is to escape from confinement.

Gamers will have to make an effort to get through this. There are reviews from players who say they could not get past certain parts. In such cases, video guides, articles come to the rescue.

THE NIGHT AT PIZZERIA

The gameplay is copied from Five Nights at Freddy's. Surprisingly, it's quite a decent parody. We again play as a guard who, instead of securing the establishment, saves his own life from monsters.

Switching between cameras and managing doors requires users to perform more actions than in the original, which adds to the difficulty, fear for one's life.

ABANDONED TOY FACTORY

A search and rescue mission for missing employees will appear here. Players can roam around the abandoned toy factory with up to four people.

We recommend experiencing the Fortnite horror with friends, as it is much more engaging that way. Surprisingly, this advice applies to most third-person titles.

HAUNTED ESCAPE

This is a very beautiful map. The developer really put effort into the design. As for the gameplay, the main task is to complete many levels to escape. To advance through them, you must search for weapons, pumpkins, and much more, which is better seen in the game itself.

THE BACKROOMS [ORIGINAL SHOWCASE]

The Backrooms theme was already mentioned in the compilation, but such a variant is significantly more interesting because it allows you to visit not just the initial world. This version may be less scary, but it offers more variety and length. In addition, there is an opportunity to explore several levels of utility rooms with friends.

BANANA NIGHTMARE

The player's task on a map is to escape from monsters that resemble food. Apparently, these are the kinds of images that come to mind for children when adults try to feed them healthy food.

If you enter the game to have fun with friends, strange dreams are still guaranteed. However, it seems to be a more fun option than running from monsters alone.

THE FOREST

An atmospheric first-person quest. Explore the location, complete tasks to progress, and avoid the monster. The gameplay can be compared to a simplified version of Poppy Playtime. The map may not reach the level of a full-fledged game project, but it comes close to such a title, which is quite commendable.

SCARY DOLL

A short but enjoyable first-person game. The appearance of the dolls deserves special mention. For amateur work, they look great. Because of this, the jump scares can truly frighten, even if you are playing with companions.

GRANNY REMAKE

The implementation of the super-popular Granny project in Fortnite was only a matter of time. As expected, the location has captivated many people. Not just with setting! Playing on this map is interesting. Due to the graphics, first-person perspective, it feels like you're not in a battle royale at all.

Besides the main objective, escaping, you can find hidden secret items and try out three different game modes.

CIRCUS ODDITY

The circus is probably the strangest map in Fortnite. It offers a surreal experience that is more amusing than frightening. There's also a certain storyline present. The location is definitely suitable for having fun with friends. It can be played by groups of up to four people.

ZOMBIELAND

One of the most popular maps in the genre is the one that offers more action than horror. Do you like fighting zombies? What about hordes of monsters? Are you looking to have such an experience in Fortnite? If all answers are "yes", then welcome to ZOMBIELAND.

Besides the standard methods of killing the walking dead, there's also the option to run them over with a car. Quite effective and practical.

BABY

This map is quite specific but has still garnered the attention of many Fortnite players. It's a narrative scary story, so to avoid spoiling the experience, let's just say the gameplay is straightforward but sufficient for immersing in the story.
