Reception

Tom Malcom for Info said "The humor of Fright Night is strictly junior-high, but most of us enjoy a little junior-high silliness now and then."[1]

Mark Higham for ST/Amiga Format said "it's unusual to take on the role of the bad guy, and with the sort of visual treat on offer it's certain to be a hit."[2]

Andy Storer for New Computer Express said "Although Fright Night looks and sounds great, its gameplay – and here you have to remember it's a game about biting into necks and drawing blood – sucks."[3]

Duncan Evans for Amiga Computing said "The graphics are excellent and the SFX are nothing short of brilliant – I love the slurping noise when you bite someone, which restores your health incidentally – but the gameplay is very, very shallow."[4]

Amiga User International said "the game falls down on a hopeless lack of originality. Overall, this lacklustre variant on a theme deserves to fail, and I can only hope this talented team will consider very carefully before they embark on another turkey."[5]
