In this episode of The Halloween Podcast, I dive into one of the most disturbing and controversial arcade games ever released: Chiller. Developed by Exidy in 1986, Chiller didn’t make you a hero or even a villain—it made you the torturer. With light-gun gameplay centered around brutal, helpless victims, the game was banned or rejected by most arcades and remains one of gaming’s darkest curiosities.
I explore the gameplay, the controversy, the unlicensed NES port, and why—despite everything—I might still buy the cabinet if I ever found one. This is the story of a game that shouldn’t exist… but somehow still does.
