With Halloween around the corner, I have been playing a lot of horror-themed online slots lately. I like them, but some of them creep me out, like Scary Rich 2. I’m one of those people who slept with the lights on after seeing Paranormal Activity, so some of these scary themes are a bit much for me. I still like them, though. One game that does a pretty good job of creeping me out is Dioblo 13.

First of all, I have no clue why it is spelled “Dioblo.” I know that “Diablo” is the Spanish word for Devil. Maybe the makers of this game simply got the spelling wrong. In any case, this is another game with a horror theme. It features symbols of skulls, satanic books, creepy eyes staring at you from within a pentagram, a black cat, and a Devil-like creature with red eyes and horns.

Dioblo 13 is a 5-reel, 13-payline slot with a jackpot of 600 coins. As such, it is a small stakes game and not for the high rollers. Players can bet on the game in coin denominations ranging from $0.01 to $5 per payline. Having 13 paylines is kind of unusual, but it is probably on purpose. Thirteen is considered an unlucky number and some people even fear the number and think it’s evil. Some trivia: Fear of the number 13 is called Triskaidekaphobia.

There is a creepy ambiance to the game as you play, including horror music in the background and the animation of the symbols when used in a winning combination. The online slot does not have a multiplier symbol, which is disappointing. It does have two scatter symbols, a wizard and an elf. Either of the symbols can be used to unlock a free-spin bonus feature.

In the bonus feature, you get up to five free spins and in those spins, you can win more free spins and they come with a 1x multiplier. This game doesn’t have the best bonuses or payouts but if you’re in a Halloween mood, this is still a good game to get you into the spirit of things. Just don’t play it alone in the dark if you don’t want to have trouble sleeping.

Well, the Weekend Madness tournament at Online Vegas ended yesterday. Did you win any prizes? The game was played on the Cherry Blossoms slot for a $30,000 prize pool. Not a bad way to spend the weekend, but I spent most of mine watching sports and drinking, and drinking while watching sports. Now that the tournament is over, there is other action you can get in on if you’re interested.

Today there is a slot tournament on an appropriate game, Vampire Vixen. It’s one of my favorite games because it’s a spooky horror-themed slot and because, honestly, the vampire is kind of hot. Don’t judge me. From 9:00 AM to 11:30 AM today, you can join the 2.5 Hour $500 Bonus Buck Freeroll on Vampire Vixen. As the name indicates, there is no entry fee for the tournament. Once you join, you are credited with 100 coins. If you run out, you can re-buy for $2.25. The prize pool for the tournament is $500 in bonus bucks. If you missed your chance on playing it today, the tournament runs again Wednesday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 11:30 AM.

If you’re having trouble sleeping, there is also the Red-Eye tournament that takes place tonight/tomorrow morning. On Wednesday, from 12:30 AM to 8:30 AM, Online Vegas is holding a tournament on the Winter Wonderland slot. Though that game may seem more appropriate for Christmas than Halloween, I know people who insist Christmas can be celebrated any day of the year. The tournament has an entry fee of $2.99 and players compete for a share of the pot.

To take part in either of the slot tournaments currently available at Online Vegas, visit the casino today.

What can I say about the new Scary Rich 2 game? Well, when I was a kid, this game probably would have given me nightmares. I guess it’s a good thing kids aren’t allowed on online casinos. Of course, I’m not sure if they even had online casinos then. Though unsuitable for kids, this creepy game is just the thing for those getting into the Halloween spirit.

When I say that Scary Rich 2 is creepy, I mean it. The background is some old stone building, surrounded by dead and dying plants. The borders of the game, including the lines separating each reel, are made of blood. The symbols are of different horror movie subjects. There is a werewolf, a somewhat-hot female vampire, a freaky male vampire, a creepy doll, a zombie, a scary clown and more. The soundtrack also helps set the mood, with sounds of rain, thunder and church bells. The creepy doll also dances to strange music.

The coffin is the wild symbol and it substitutes for any symbol except for the werewolf, which is the scatter symbol. During normal player, two or more coffin symbols in a winning combination triggers a multiplier of up to 13 times your bet. There werewolf symbol can be used to unlock a free spin bonus round, where you get 13 free spins and each win is tripled.

With Halloween coming up soon, this slot game is exactly the kind of thing I’m looking for. If you want a game that still has a monsters theme but not as creepy, the original Scary Rich game is more your style. Either way, the game should be a ghoulishly good time and if you win some money on the game, you should be able to buy more candy. Or costumes. Those things are expensive!

The Scary Rich 2 slot game can be found at Sloto’ Cash Casino.

Halloween is one of my favorite times of the year, mostly because I get to fill up on candy corn. Honestly, I have eaten at least three full bags in the last week. This could be a problem. The slutty costumes are another fun aspect of it, but for me (or at least for the purpose of this blog), it’s all about the online slots.

One of the great things about slots is that they can be given any theme. That means they can be tailored towards a special event, such as a holiday, such as Halloween. See where I’m going with this? Yes, I love slots with a Halloween theme.

There are a lot of slots that fit that bill. There is the Monsters in the Closet slot, which is one of my favorites. It reminds me of the time when I was scared of sleeping in the dark because I thought there were monsters in my closet and under the bed. This slot features a large number of creepy, scary monsters that I don’t want anywhere near my room!

Vampire Vixen is another fun Halloween slot. It has a hot vampire and vampires have always been one of the best monsters. There’s something sexy about how they turn you over to their side by biting your neck… On a similar note, there is also the Bitten slot, which is again about a vampire temptress.

Black Magic is a fun Halloween slot that doesn’t feature vampires at all. It is more concerned with witches and sorcery. That makes me think of those people who make you reach your hand into a weird pot to get your candy. It always made me nervous, but in a good way.

Halloween is a great holiday because of the candy, the freaky stuff and the fact that you can be whatever you want to be. Getting to escape from reality is healthy and important. I like to do that by playing online slots and there is no better way than by playing games with Halloween themes.

To me, whenever an online casino releases new online slots, it’s like my birthday. Or maybe Christmas morning. I have a brand new game to try and see if I like it. Even if the games aren’t great, the newness of the game gives it added enjoyment. If it’s a good new game then it quickly becomes a favorite. Four new online slots were recently released at All Slots Casino, so you can imagine how exciting this time is for me.

Tiger’s Eye is one of the new slots and it has an Indian theme. By that, I mean India. It is set in the jungle and features various wild animals commonly found in the Indian jungle, including monkeys, tigers, deer and more. If you know me, you know how much I love nature shows and animals, especially monkeys! So this game is right up my alley. The only bad thing about the game is that it makes me crave eating curry and I’ve never even had curry!

Dolphin Coast is another new slot, but I have already written about that new game. It is the other two games at All Slots Casino that are particularly exciting, because they relate to this time of the year. One of the games is Steinfest, which  is a game with an Oktoberfest theme. Beer is one of the few things I like more than monkeys and other cute and crazy wild animals. The Steinfest slot celebrates German culture with alcohol, food, lederhosen and everything else you’d expect from something with an Oktoberfest theme. It has everything you want plus the benefit of lacking the smell of sauerkraut. It’s the perfect game to play while drinking ale from a stein glass.

The other topical online slot new to the casino is Monsters in the Closet. This is the perfect game for Halloween and it features lots creepy monsters that would have freaked me out as a kid. I was always more concerned with the monsters underneath my bed than those in the closet, though. In any case, it’s a great game to play while eating candy corn.

All of these games and more can be found at All Slots Casino, so check them out if you want to try something new.

I think it’s fall now. I’m not sure. Where I live, we don’t have normal seasons. We just alternate between summer and fall, sometimes in the same week. One week ago it was cold but today it’s hot. Anyway, even if the summer is over, that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy the sights, sounds and experiences of summer with an online slot.

Even though it’s not great weather right now, I can turn on the Travel Channel and watch someone touring a Caribbean island, living vicariously through someone with a much better job than me. If you don’t get the Travel Channel or they are wasting air space by showing one of those shows about food, you can get your fix by playing the new Dolphin Coast slot at Lucky Nugget Casino.

The Dolphin Coast slot has an underwater theme set somewhere in the tropics, where the water is crystal clear, the rum drinks are extra strong, and pirates occasionally kidnap you. It has a background showing the beautiful blue sea and symbols of dolphins, turtles, seahorses and various fish.

Dolphin Coast is a 5-reel slot that has 3,125 ways to win, rather than having traditional paylines. The online slot offers free spin bonuses of up to 25 free spins if the dolphin scatter symbol is triggered. Winnings are doubled during free spins. Players can also trigger a Pick a Dolphin bonus. Guess what you do in that bonus game…That’s right. You’re shown a pod of dolphins and must pick one of the dolphins. Each of those porpoises has a secret bonus multiplier associated with them, but you don’t know how much until you pick.

If dolphins, the beach, relaxation, vacation and rum are some of your favorite things, you will probably like the Dolphin Coast slot. It has all of that except for the rum, which you will have to supply on your own. It’s never a problem for me, since my house is always well-stocked with it. To play the Dolphin Coast slot, visit Lucky Nugget Casino.

One of my favorite things in life is going to a classy night club with some good drinks, good jazz music and a sexy singer onstage. Another one of my favorite things is playing online slots. Therefore, I can’t believe I had never played the Lady in Red slot before today! Having played it a few times now, I have to say that I rather like this online slot.

The Lady in Red slot is set in a classy jazz club. The character of the title is a jazz singer who performs onstage in a glamorous red dress… Wait, can I say “glamorous” when describing clothing without sounding gay?…Never mind.

Aside from the lady in red, the online slot also features symbols of a pianist, a camera, a glass of whisky with a man in a suit smoking in the background, and more. I do have one complaint about the game and it is a major complaint. There is no background music. This is a slot set in a jazz club, where the titular character is a singer, it has symbols of instruments, and yet there is no music. In fact, there really isn’t any audio in the game, with the exception of sounds alerting you when you win. I think a good soundtrack featuring someone sounding like Billie Holliday or Etta James would have been perfect and would have made this slot my favorite game.

That complaint aside, I still enjoyed the game. I listened to some good blues and jazz music on my iPod when playing to give the slot that ambience that it is lacking. As for the rest of the game, it is a 5-reel slot with 25 paylines. Players can bet from one cent to $0.50 per spin and the slot has a jackpot of $12,500.

There are a number of bonuses available in the game, including up to 25 free spins. During all free spins, the winning are tripled. The slot also has a multiplier bonus of up to ten times your bet. With the exception of the lack of music, this game is about as good as I can ask for.

To play the Lady in Red slot, visit Roxy Palace Casino.

Now that the Slottery tournament is over, you might be thinking now what? After a month of playing in the large tournament, you might want to take a break. Play some games in regular, non-tournament action. If so, that’s fine, but for me, I’m already looking ahead to the next tournament at VIP Slots Casino.

From October 8 through October 11, VIP Slots is running the Super Market Sweep slot tournament. The Super Market slot is based on the old Supermarket Sweep game show on TV. It’s a show I have fond memories of, sitting there fantasizing about getting to compete on the show. I wished I had the money to buy all of the things they buy, to simply load up a shopping cart without a care about the size of the total due at the cash register. The Super Market Sweep tournament is an online slot tournament based on that game.

The slot tournament has a $5,000 guaranteed prize pool. The first-place winner will get $2,000 and the second-place player will win $1,000. The players who finish third through fifth will win $750, $500 and $250, respectively. The players who finish in sixth through tenth place will earn $100 each.

Oh, did I mention that this is a free slot tournament? That’s right. The Super Market Sweep is a freeroll tournament, so there is no entry fee. If you run out of credits, you can re-buy for $5 an unlimited number of times.

To take part in the Super Market Sweep freeroll tournament, visit VIP Slots Casino.

Halloween is one of my favorite times of the year, mostly because I get to dress up as someone else and live as someone else for a day. I have to spend most of my time as Johan, the slots writer whose girl left him for a cabana boy. On Halloween, though, I get to live as whoever I want: James Bond, Indiana Jones, Batman, whatever! Plus there’s great candy involved as well.

Some may think that it’s too early to focus on Halloween, since it’s at the beginning of the month and we are only starting October today. Those people are wrong. It’s never too early to focus on Halloween. Luckily, Super Slots Casino seems to agree with me. Because they have some treats (no tricks, as far as I can tell) for you in the form of a spooktacular slot tournament.

The tournament is The Haunted $100,000 Slot Tournament and it runs from October 1 through October 31. On the actual night of Halloween, you probably shouldn’t be playing on an online casino. You should be getting drunk with a naughty nurse at a costume party. Still, for the rest of the month you can take part in this ghoulishly fun tournament.

The slot tournament has an entry fee of only $10, which gives you the opportunity to play for a guaranteed prize pool of $100,000. This is a top-heavy prize pool, with the first-place finisher winning $50,000. In total, the top 175 players in the tournament will win prize money.

The Haunted tournament is played on the Black Magic slot, an online slot with a creepy horror theme. The online slot feature symbols of witches, vampires, bubbling caldrons, bats, skulls and more.

To take part in the Haunted slot tournament, visit Super Slots Casino.

As much as I love The Lord of the Rings and its accompanying slot game, sometimes you have to take a break from playing the same thing. So I decided to play something totally different: an online slot based on an epic, Academy Award-winning movie featuring sword fighting. Of course I’m talking about the movie Gladiator and the online slot based on it, created by Playtech.

Gladiator is famous for being that movie that made us think that Russell Crowe is cool, before he ruined that by spending a few years making more headlines for being a jerk than for being in good movies. And then, of course, he was in the horrible remake of the classic 3:10 to Yuma and the ridiculous Robin Hood adaptation, so that coolness is now gone. Still, this is the movie where Crowe seemed the epitome of cool as Maximus, the Roman general betrayed and forced to live as a gladiator in order to get revenge against Emperor Commodus, played by Joaquin Phoenix before we thought he was crazy.

The Gladiator slot has everything you would want from a game based on a popular movie. It has symbols of characters from the movie, showing Russell Crowe, Joaquin Phoenix and more in action. It has video clips and audio from the movie. Gladiator is a 5-reel, 25-payline video slot that has a variety of bonuses. The Coliseum scatter symbol unlocks a free spin bonus, during which all wins are multiplied by up to 100 times your total bet. The gladiator helmet is the wild symbol and can be substituted for any symbol. Used in the correct combination, the wild symbol also brings you to the Gladiator Bonus round, where you have to slay a tiger.

Okay, I lied about the tiger slaying. The Gladiator Bonus is simply a game where you are given a group of helmets, each with a secret bonus associated with it. You must choose a helmet and you get whichever bonus goes with it. Not terribly exciting, but at least no tigers were harmed. There is also the Coliseum Bonus round, where you throw stones are far as you can and earn bonus points depending on the distance of your throw.

The Gladiator slot can be found at Playtech Casinos, such as Go Casino and Online Vegas Casino.
