Idk what it is but, in Dishonored, those freak River Crusst things... Just the sight and noise of them just unnerve me to no end. They're just so gross.
Things in games that creeped you the fuck out -
- Thread starter FuckedUp
- Start date

Sister services, email, and search will continue to be negatively effected by the attacks. I made a thread to talk about it, if you're into networking.

The fact that both Otacon and Meryl from the Metal Gear series are both considered to be Jewish Americans.
As much as I hate rants about "muh generation" and how "imagination fills in the gaps", I think it's both of those things.
PS1 and N64 graphics were good enough to be able to identify something, but also vague enough for you to not be sure.
As for the generation. The 90s were a time where kids were treated with respect, for lack of a better word. Often this meant traumatising them with things like American Tale, Watership Down, and Land Before Time, but the general assumption was kids could handle all manner of mental trauma. Was this a good? I don't know.
To put it another way, kids games were made for kids, not made to be safe for every possible kid, not made to comfort parents, and not made for 35 year old Tumblr weirdos to fap to.
For whatever reason, the bit with the ultra secure box with a single hair in it stuck with me. I wouldn't even call it scary, just weird.
I never came across that note. I'll have to look it up.
It appears next to those tutorial notes next to the corpse that discuss how monsters won't notice you in the dark and to be calm while firing a gun at them.

Read that as R2D2
the prologue screen to Marathon: Infinity is just what the fuck?
The fucking crash sound on the GBA. Turn your volume down if you look it up.
Source, for all its strengths, sure has one hell of an uncomfortable effect on isolation.
The way you die in the King Kong video game always unnerved me out. When you're close to death, the screen starts flashing red as the ominous main menu music starts playing. Get hit one more time and Jack's perspective lowers, indicating he's died as the music ends in an abrupt distortion.
Even worse is when you fall to your death. Jack screams this ungodly distorted scream as the screen cuts out. It reminds me of when I wake up from a nightmare with the last sound still ringing in my head.

So, for things that have creeped me the hell out... Stalker: Shadow of Chernobyl and anything to do with psychic shit in that game. Controllers, the fight through the NPP as the Wish Granter speaks to you, and most horrifyingly, the Brain Scorcher. You enter the map and your screen gets washed out from the psychic stuff, you fight your way through zombies, snorks, and even some bloodsuckers to the machine itself, and then you see a gigantic fucking brain in a tank, and when you finally shut the machine off, everything starts shaking as it undergoes its death throes.

Mimi in Super Paper Mario is pretty creepy, with the necksnap into a spider abomination that pursues you through Chapter 2's mansion, but there's something else that really hit young me
In the PAL release, talking to her at a certain point (2-2 i want to say) causes the game to crash, but her face is midtalking and the game is screeching a loud noise until you push the power button
Luckily you can avoid the bug as talking to her at that specific point isn't required

The zombie footstep in Oblivion unnerved me to the point that I avoided all Ayleid ruins.
When I was a kid and didn't know what an idle animation was, Vector Man's idle where he stared at the player scared me.
The Sun from SMB2.
The Grey House in Fable.
Giant insects, especially in first person games. RE5 gets a special fuck you for having your death animation to the Reaper be in first person.

Splatterhouse 3 as a whole is pretty unsettling for a Genesis game but seeing this for the first time? Fuck you Namco.
The Carnicero Romero butcher shop, and the small graveyard you can find behind the building next to it in Vice City.
Yeah, I know they're just supposed to be cool easter eggs, but they still creep me out.

The putrid tunnel section of Metro Exodus. It wasn't the first time a game has made me itch, but it is definitely the first time a game has made me feel genuine nausea.
(This isn't necessarily the best video of it since this person just plows through and you can't focus as well on the leeches and the animated tubifex-mass textures but it's the only one I could find that wasn't a 10+ minute episode from a long play series.)
System shock 2. Who would have thought a claustrophobic "stuck on a spaceship" shooter with unforgettable audio could be good fodder for horror atmosphere?
Strangely enough it's the protocol droids that freaked me out the most. The AI's and finding all the suicidee's may have been more existentially dreadful, but the protocol droids had this weird moment for me.
I am trying to climb the crates in the cargo area. I hear a new type of enemy. It is saying things that make it clear it's looking for me. "Oh sir. Where are you? I'm sorry sir, I did not see where you went. Tsk tsk, some people are so shy."
And somehow something in my brain got crossed. Why am I being a dick? What if I can talk to this droid and maybe trade with him like the replicators?
So I jump down and try to see where he is and just as I'm doing that he says something that makes me realize my mistake:
"Xerxes won't like this!"
And just then I saw him in front of me and he exploded on my face.
It's kinda stupid because hybrids, midwifes and spiders are objectively the scary enemies, but this just freaked me out.

That Skinner Brothers from RDR2, and all of the victims of theirs you can find throughout the game.
Also, that random encounter where a dead guys falls off his horse, and if you examine his corpse, his eyes have been gouged out and he has no skin on his face.

Don't limit yourself to horror games either!
