Just because your world might be ending, it doesn't mean that you can’t look good while surviving. Horror game protagonists know this to be 100 percent true, often prioritizing their looks over survivability. To be fair, most horror protagonists get pulled into terrifying situations and aren’t given the time to dress appropriately.

Despite how they ended up in their uniquely awful scenarios, some of our favorite horror game heroes look better than others. Whether in a modern zombie disaster or hunting down monsters in castles, these are some of the most stylish horror protagonists.

10 Mio Amakura - Fatal Frame 2: Crimson Butterfly

Best Dressed Horror Protag Fatal Frame 2 Crimson Butterlfy Mio

Few people are prepared to enter a ghost town and use a specialized camera to exercise ghosts. Fatal Frame's Mio and her sister Mayu certainly were not ready to be whisked away to All God's Village.

What was supposed to be a casual walk through the forest they played in as children quickly went off the rails. You can unlock different costumes for every occasion by beating the game a few times, thankfully.

9 Heather Mason - Silent Hill 3

Best Dressed Horror Protag Silent Hill 3 Heather Mason

Silent Hill 3's Heather might not be the best-dressed horror protagonist, but she was fortunate enough to have dressed for the occasion. All Heather wanted was to go to the store, grab a bite to eat, and maybe take a nap. Who could have predicted that it would end up with her in Otherworld, battling monsters of nightmare and a cult dedicated to resurrecting their god?

Either way, Heather’s white vest and orange tank are fashionable and functional, and remain iconic in the series.

8 Leon Kennedy - Resident Evil 4

Best Dressed Horror Protag Resident Evil 4 Leon Kennedy

Leon is dressed for two things in Resident Evil 4: saving the president’s daughter from a zombie-filled region of Spain, and for a mildly chilly day.

His fuzzy-lined jacket is cozy and functional, keeping out the cold and keeping in all sorts of herbs, chicken eggs, and first aid sprays. Leon’s cargo pants take away from the look a bit but are still very practical for carrying all sorts of weird keys and gems.

7 Luigi - Luigi’s Mansion 3

Best Dressed Horror Protag Bloodborne Luigis Mansion 3 Luigi

‘Why change perfection’ should be Luigi’s motto. Having stuck with basically one look since 1983, Luigi can be found hunting ghosts in his iconic green shirt and blue overalls in Luigi's Mansion 3. Another very practical outfit, Luigi’s denim overalls are easy to clean and great for getting down and dirty in mostly abandoned mansions - and ectoplasmic goo washes out easily.

Luigi’s look also is great with accessories, including the ghost-sucking Poltergust G-00. It even comes with a backup Gooigi for when you need a hand with those sticky situations.

6 Ellie Williams - The Last Of Us 2

Best Dressed Horror Protag Last of Us 2 Ellie

Growing up in a post-apocalypse, zombie-infested world makes it hard to find the perfect look, but Ellie makes it work. Over the course of The Last Of Us 2, Ellie changes her outfit a few times, but no matter what, she sticks to a theme: survival. Pockets, backpacks, warm clothes.

Despite being drenched in rivers of blood, spores, and gore from zombies and humans alike, she always finds a way to keep her look clean.

5 The Hunter - Bloodborne

Best Dressed Horror Protag Bloodborne Hunter

If there’s one thing Bloodborne is known for, it's fashion. As the good Hunter, it’s important to represent the order of monster killers by being the best-dressed human citizen in a district. You wouldn’t want to be rescued by some pedestrian-looking basic beast hunter, would you?

With what could be called horror-chic, the Hunter has multiple outfits to choose from, along with some specific clothes if you want to steal another Hunter’s look.

4 Alucard Ţepeş - Castlevania: Symphony Of The Night

Best Dressed Horror Protag Castlevania Alucard

Alucard might not come from a traditional horror game, but there are plenty of traditional terrors of the night to plague the world within Castlevania. Monsters like skeletons, zombies, and demons don’t belong in this world, and Alucard is the best-dressed monster hunter to do it.

With his high lapel cape, ruffled chemise shirt, and doublet all in black and gold, Alucard is here to turn heads and take the heads of every monster in Dracula's Castle.

3 Fiona Belli - Haunting Ground

Best Dressed Horror Protag Haunting Ground Fiona Belli

Fiona wasn’t ready to be dragged into a mysterious castle filled with people who wanted to kill her, but she came dressed better than all of them combined.

With knee-high boots, a cute skirt, and the gold filigree on her shirt, Fiona will escape her castle prison and look good doing it. She even comes with a matching white German Shepherd named Hewie to complete her look.

2 Garcia Hotspur - Shadows Of The Damned

Best Dressed Horror Protag Shadows of the Damned Garcia Hotspur

Garcia Hotspur is a man on a mission to kill demons and look great doing it. Garcia sports a cool-as-heck purple leather jacket, tight black leather pants, and matching black biker boots.

Garcia also knows how to accessorize, with eight skulls rings, one for each finger, and a belt buckle taunting demons with the words ‘Kill Me’ on it. There’s really no doubt he’s the best-looking demon hunter around.

1 Sebastian Castellanos - The Evil Within

Best Dressed Horror Protag The Evil Within 2 Sebastian Castellanos

The hard-boiled detective goes through a few different outfits throughout the two The Evil Within games, but his best look really nails the ‘I’m too tired for this’ look Sebastian is going for.

Sebastian looks sharp while sporting a classic white button-up shirt with a pinstripe waistcoat while fighting off monsters of the mind. Before losing it through the events of the first game, Sebastian completes his look with a dashing trenchcoat, pulling together the whole outfit.
