Fallout 4 can be a bit spooky from time to time, and often startling when ghouls come lunging toward you, but it's not a horror game. You can make it one now, though, using a mod called Pilgrim—Dread the Commonwealth. Dread is definitely the right word: just watch the trailer above and see Fallout 4 turned into what looks like a mix of the Stalker games and The Road. It's bleak, yo.
Pilgrim combines a horror-based ENB with an overhaul of Fallout 4's weather system, citing as inspiration the 2015 film The Witch, directed by Robert Eggers. In fact, future plans for Pilgrim include replacing your chipper loyal companion Dogmeat with Black Philip, the alarmingly sinister goat featured in the movie. In the meantime, the mod transforms your pet pooch into a nightmarish hound with glowing eyes. I'm sure he still loves you, though.
There's a lot going on in the mod, in case you were thinking it's just a few tweaks to make the world look spooky and unsettling.
'The ENB features lens emulation, film grain, adjustable letter-boxing, optional sharpening, and a lift shadows function that can be disabled for deeper shadows,' the mod page reads. 'A new camera emulation system has been designed by TreyM using a new tonemapping method that emulates the way a digital cinema camera captures footage on a film set. A new weather plugin has been created with this new tonemapping method in mind and is tightly integrated with the ENB, which means the weather plugin will only work properly with Pilgrim.'
There's also an original soundtrack and dynamic music system 'that adjusts based on the current weather, as well as a brand new set of exploration and combat music composed and created specifically for Pilgrim which replaces the vanilla music .' Furthermore, features can be toggled on and off until you find a mix you're comfortable with. Performance-wise, you might take a minor hit, 'dropping only 5-6 fps average and about 10-12 fps in cities on a single GTX 970 at 1080p. Two extra presets of the ENB with lowered quality settings have been created for weaker systems.'
There are instructions on Pilgrim's page at Nexus Mods to help you get it installed and running, and you'll need to disable any other weather mods or 'darker nights' mods you happen to be using. DLC areas aren't covered by Pilgrim yet, either.
By the way, Fallout 4 is free to play this weekend. It's a great chance to check it out if you haven't done so yet.

This one is a big one and comes with tons of new content for players to enjoy. Sakhalin was heavily inspired by the Fallout New Vegas DLC and S.T.A.L.K.E.R, so if you're a fan of either one of those - this mod is for you.
According to the mod's creator, 'Welcome to Sakhalin Island, vault dwellers. Brought to you by the creators of Gothic: Orpheus mod for Skyrim and the upcoming game Trails of Ayash. In an alternate future of the Fallout universe after a devastating nuclear war, remnants of Communist China, The USSR, Imperial Japan and Nazi Germany have been fighting over the bones of Sakhalin Island for many generations. Forgetting anything else but everlasting war over an irradiated hell-scape.'
The official description continues, 'This moody horror based Fallout mod will take you through a hand crafted adventure on an island filled with conflict and intrigue. Fight back against your enemies and perhaps put an end to this everlasting conflict. If you liked the New Vegas DLC, The Divide or the atmospheric environments of S.T.A.L.K.E.R You will be right at home here. We're keeping some things under wraps for now to show off when they're ready. We look forward to showing you more in the future. Have fun surviving the future in Fallout: Sakahiln.'
