Download 3D Ghosts in the Graveyard Free for Windows

This spooky screensaver scores big points in a number of areas. True to its name, the program transports you to a shady, tree-lined cemetery, where you’ll find ghostly but still human apparitions haunting the crypts in which they are buried.

The classical-music soundtrack imparts the right degree of Gothic ambience, but you can add your own MP3s if you know of a scarier tune. If you want to add more action to the scene, 3D Ghosts in the Graveyard lets you add any number of skeletons, bones, candles, and bats, which will float across your screen at random intervals. You also can adjust the scene’s brightness and tint, which allows you to view the otherworldly spectacle in broad daylight or under cover of darkness.

Graphically, the screensaver is impressive; the graveyard scenery looks quite realistic, and the animations are nicely rendered. Although this program is most appropriate for use around Halloween, horror-movie buffs also will find it an excellent year-round decoration.
