By Shane Addinall Oct 27, 2018 Game ReleasePray your affairs are in order as you enter into the demented world of NetEnt's Halloween Jack. From chilling sound design hellish beasts this 5x3 reel slot machine is on the best horror slots available online today.NetEnt’s Halloween Jack is truly terrifying, with its creaking floorboards, rumbling thunder, cawing crows and insidious whispering voices it felt like loading up a horror film more than an online slot! If you’re sensitive to the darker things perhaps don’t play this one alone at night, especially with headphones on!
Halloween Jack truly captures the dark essence of all hallows eve, a time of year when the veil between this world and the next is so thin that spirits crossover and all sorts of madness and mayhem can ensue.
Dressing up in costumes has its origin in this ancient fear of demons, by dressing up as a ghost or ghoul they hoped to fool evil spirits into thinking they were of the same ilk and so avoid being haunted… or worse.
The Voice From Within Reveals Halloween Jacks Lore
While browsing through the information section of Halloween Jack you will discover a grimoire left for you by NetEnt. It tells the demented tale evil entering the world and the maddening part a whispering jewellery box played. Read “The Voice From Within” on the seventh skull deep inside the Halloween Jack information section!
This haunting tale of a woman’s descent into madness is played out against the creepy backdrop of a graveyard shrouded in mist and faintly lit by lightning. The perfect setting for the eerie symbols that cover the reels.
The Free Spins symbols is a web covered jewellery box, the one spoken of The Voice from Within. Hades alone knows what evil lies trapped within.
The Walking Wild symbol is the classic Jack-o-Lantern within its toothy grin and glowing inner fire.
During Free Spins you will be treated, or is that tricked, to three demonic Wild symbols; the vicious Stacked Hell Hound Wild, the soulless Stacked Jack-o-lantern Wild and the foreshadowing Expanding Death Reaper Wild.
The Premium symbols are:
✓ The Mad Woman – her story is sad but her reward is great. Get up to 1000 coins when she appears on the reels 5 times.
✓ Decaying Steed – this sad beast carries the treasures of its former life. Get 750 coins for meeting 5 of these on the reels.
✓ Hellish Bat –it may want your blood but capture 5 of these and be rewarded with 250 coins.
✓ Demonic Crow – this red-eyed vermin carries a rich secret, 5 of them are worth 250 coins.
✓ Not so Lucky Horseshoe – webbed and cracked this horseshoe is not as lucky as before but still worth a tidy 125 coins if you can find 5 of them.In keeping with the feel of horror the low-value symbols of A, K, Q, J and 10 have been painted to display decaying hands twisting and pulling on them as though coaxing them back into the ground. A truly macabre but appreciated treatment for these low-value symbols is how the fingers click and tap on the symbol when you win, bringing back memories of the classic Dawn of the Dead films.
