Everblue 2. No other diving game since has given me the same sense of dread the moment I fuck something up. The pressure meter warning chime made me nearly shit my pants on more than one occasion.
Plus the sunken ships. I never finished the game because I didn't want to enter the third shipwreck.

>Regenerators from re4
I didn't finish RE4 until I turned 16 or something because I stopped at the island every time and just started a new game instead of continuing.

Tomb Raider II
I was fucking thrilled by it, but every fucking corner gave me massive paranoia. I couldn't handle all those human enemies. It was pretty strange.

When I was 7 or 8 I couldn't bring myself to get past the first hallway into the large room right before the exit in map01 in Doom 2. I remember seeing a lost soul fly past and never having the courage to go in, but lost souls aren't on that level so it must've just been a fireball from one of the imps. I mostly spent my time in game just watching the demos that play when you idle at the main menu.

The Sims

Only one that didn't freak me out was putting on the Zora mask.

The aquatic dinosaurs in that one night stage in the first Ape Escape were spooky on their own but that fucking giant catfish made me turn of the PS1 as soon as I fell in the water.

Outside of the Butcher, Diablo 1 had some of the most nightmarish atmosphere of any game I’ve played to date. The music, the way enemies move around in the dark, etc. It’s basically a horror game

still spooky

I remember the first time I dropped into the abyss knowing I was going to die from the pressure. Goblin sharks and all that other shit, screen flashing red. Damn near gave me a heart attack.

Shit, I do. They look scary, they sound scary, and they play scary. I didn't know what the infrared scope was when I was a kid, so I was helpless against them. That just made them even scarier.

Aka endless ocean 3

Fellowship of the Ring, the part where the wraiths show up. Up to this point, the game has been mostly this happy, childish thing where Frodo goes around throwing rocks, collecting mushrooms, helping out the townspeople, doing pranks, etc.
Then the wraiths show up and you go through this creepy-as-shit stealth sequence where Hobbiton in shrouded in night and these motherfuckers are patrolling all over the place.

Resident evil 1

I was eight years old when I had my first experience with pathologic. About 30 seconds in, I faced down the two fuckers in pic related and immediately noped the fuck out of the game - by pressing the power button.
I had nightmares that night and probably buried that game somewhere deep in my mind.
Imagine my surprise when some twelve years later, I played the classic hd version because of threads on Yea Forums, and instantly recognized it as THAT game.

Every single boss in Donkey Kong 64

I don't exactly remember what game it was but it was a car racing game either on PS1 or PS2.
All I know is that there was a police car chasing after whoever was playing the game (I was just watching) and the police car flipped over and landed upside down and then it started jittering and jumping around with the siren going off while the police car is spazing upside down.
I don't know why but that scared me as a kid, it was probably just faulty collision of the PS1/PS2 days making the car bounce around but all I could think about was the policemen in the car getting crushed to shit and dying horribly.

I just couldn't do it

IG88 was fucking nightmare inducing, I couldn't finish the game because of it. I loved Star Wars as a kid so I kept trying to replay this since it was the only SW game my parents bought me, but I couldn't do it.

For some reason my ps1 came with a copy of Nightmare Creatures 2.
I must've been 6 when I played it. Scared the ever living shit out of me.

Pretty sure a legit sadist composed this song.

See fuck redeads

I can't remember the name of the game but it was about these stuffed animals that would shoot each other. No clue why i found it so disturbing but I did.
I wouldn't mind going back to it after all these years just to see it now.

Resident Evil 2 scared the shit out of me when I was like 6.

Fuck that scream still haunts me

Played pic related as a 5 y/o. Crawling around a haunted house is frightening enough, but IIRC the game ends with finding the diary of some dead girl and cuts to her ghost banging on the locked bedroom door. This game scared me into having great reading comprehension. Also, playing Parasite Eve and Bushido Blade at that age were also bretty spooky.

This though now I just find Alice in all her forms hot as fuck.

This, I'm replaying but still get spooked sometimes, the music is too somber and you keep hearing the reaverbots in the distance.

Never really got how that song bothers people so much.

Space has nothing on deep sea tho.

That one random scary abandoned home in the first Fable game. Fuck that

A Buzz Lightyear game on Ps1, the second level (lava planet) had these giant leeches that fell from cave roof and grabbed onto your neck and made it impossible to control buzz for a few seconds. As a kid I was absolutely terrified of leeches (my mum got one on the eyeball, and that memory still scares me).

Also, embarrassingly I was too scared to finish the fucking bunker level in Uncharted 1 for ~2months.

RESIDENT EVIL 1, gave me nightmares but made me strong

While Rusty Bucket Bay didn't hurt me too much as a kid, it did share something that did from BK. Fucking Snacker the shark chasing after you in Treasure Trove Cove, I hated the two items you had to go underwater for, and flying over the water at any point in the game.

That stupid Chucky doll knockoff in the horror levels on Gex 64. It was bad enough that they chased you with a knife and their heads fell off but the head was the weak point and kid me did not figure this out. So yeah, headless (seemingly) invincible knife wielding doll, fun times for a 6 year old.

Young me dropped Diablo 1 at that point and I didn't pick it up again for at least 10 years afterwards. I was extremely hesitant to get into D2 due to it as well, although I quickly realized it wasn't nearly as bad

Super Mario Sunshine gave me a phobia of the depths of the ocean. Or any submarine game with a low FOV.

Math Blaster?

This is seriously the only game that scared me as a kid. The whole game was pretty scary but at some point near the end I got too creeped out and couldn't finish. Never saw the end.

This but only the armadillo

My first real experience with FPS as a young child is pic related. This game scared the shit out of me but I was always wanting to see more so I'd keep coming back. The chanting of the warlocks still gets to me.

This is a major weenie answer but I remember that got to me as well, it just sort of pulls the rug from under you. The first game worked really well as "babby's first survival horror game," I feel like they've lost that angle a bit.

Seeing the ghosts thoroughly rustled my jimmies. You couldn't move while they were on screen. I didn't even know there was a Rotom encounter there until a while later. I just thought the TV was supposed to be scary

Half life 2 Ravenholm took me a week to get through when i was 8 years old because i was so fucking scared to move forward

King Kong for Gameboy Advance, there was a point in the jungle where you pass a blind corner then get attacked by a raptor and this jarring music cue always made me jump, as raptors had always been the most dangerous non boss type enemy it was absolute bullshit when you cant even dodge this attack as it is in a tight corridor so you pay a toll of minimum 25% of you health depending on which character you had in the lead

Putting that in a kids game.

I was a major weenie and any game where dying was even remotely bloody scared the shit out of me, but what got me the worst was pretty much any first person game. For some reason I always imagined that some shit was hiding just out of view and it scared me to death

I thought it was catchy

>Playing the demo with a friend
>Those fallen one intestines flapping about when you kill them
>Run back out to town every time we see an enemy to gather courage before going down and fighting them
>Come upon square room

>Panic, flap about keyboard then hard reset.
>Gather ourselves, start the desktop up again and uninstall the demo

I was scared I was going to lose my progress so I didn't collect the gems, but now I can't find that cutscene anywhere.

Wacky Racers
Getting into configuring DOS games as a kid, I never imagined a game like this would tax a Pentium 120Mhz. So I fired up a pirated copy I found somewhere and waited. Some sixty seconds later I get the slowest, most hair raising music and sound effects coming out of the speakers. And I about crapped myself and ran. Mustered up the courage to go back in and Ctrl^C the bitch when for some reason the game wasn't displaying the slo-mo attract mode any more, but rather just the word: MUPPET. Hit the power button and NOPEd outta there for a couple days. Years later found out it was just one of the cheat codes for the game, but I never entered it myself. Must have been a trainer in with the download.

Had something similar happen with RE2 on N64. I was a Mario and Zelda kid, so suddenly being thrown into the intro of RE2 at a friend's house led to quick death.

Fucker's still just as terrifying, damn. Didn't he have a roar or something, or did terrified little kid me dream up a noise he didn't even make?

Siberia and Notre Dame in Timesplitters 2.

Resident Evil 2, but it's normal. The other game that scared the shit out of me was a 3D snake game where there were creatures in the shadows around each stage, you could only see their eyes. If you went out of the borders of the stage they would eat you and I remember it being graphic. Also, all you had to do to go to the next stage was play normally and collect points and then a key would appear so you could unlock a gate that led to the next stage. There was a time limit, when it ran out, night would fall in the stage and the creatures would enter it making it impossible to finish it as they would eat you. Anybody remember this game?

this game, along reading some fucking book about a zombie apocalypse, made me fear the night and got almost no sleep for many weeks, thinking that a zombie outbreak could happen any time.

Original Doom especially when you wanted to close the game with those spoopy messages.

Most of the DK64 bosses, but for some reason King Kut-Out made me freak out a bit with all the noises he made, I guess it was the uncanny nature of it all, though the giant dragonfly and Jack in the box were close seconds.

Then there was that damn sniper in some parts. "Get out...."

this game is fucking disgusting

Yes it was.
But or was that one or ghostbusters as a bundle with phantom system.

I need your guys help, trying to remember a game, it was a point and click first person horror game, like silver key/shivers

>Odie scares Garfield while he is watching television, and he ends up falling on the television. In a rushed effort to repair the television before Jon catches them, Garfield and Odie attempt to put the banged up and broken pieces together. Without so much as a screwdriver, Garfield quickly reassembles the television, minus a part or two.[2] As Garfield throws away the spare pieces, they become an electronic monster known as the Glitch. The Glitch transports Garfield into the television and now he must defeat the Glitch to make his way out.
the concept of being sucked into horror movies playing on your TV and being trapped there with no escape and then dying to like the third enemy in the game and having existential dread about what it would be to die while trapped in the TV made me freak out, turn the Genesis off, run out of the room, and tell my mom to return it and get me something else because this was these thoughts were the most horrifying I'd ever had as a child

Majora's mask. It gave me repeated nightmares of the moon falling on the town. The future Hyrule Town in OOT scared the crap out of me as well.

Resident Evil was another one. I couldn't get past the start of the game because the zombie upstairs petrified me.

I can never not be mad at this. Fucking Blizzard dropped the ball hard with D3.

Speaking of flash games, escape room games to me were generally unsettling as fuck except Escape the Magenta Room with that one big anime tiddies poster. The submachine ones being the fucking worst. I don't

I don't know what it is about N64 games but a lot of them felt super unsettling. I remember also being creeped out by Banjo Kazooie, not by any enemy or area in particular, just moving around the world was creepy for some reason.

I didn't learn until I was an adult that you could escape him, I thought he was just a timed game over scenario

I remember being at a friends house and playing a demo disk on his playstation. We tried A Bug's Life game and Tarzan or something, and went to Resident Evil to see what was the deal with that game.
The moment we touched the controls we realized something wasn't right, but we powered through the place halls without reading anything. Then that motherfucking zombie shows up and we still couldn't control Jill that well. We fucking died trying to run from him and that's my first experience with a horror game. It was great.

never got past that part

Forsaken Fortress from Windwaker. The way the music would intensify as the guards got more suspicious of you under the barrel. Also, those fucking mice that would blow your cover. I was so scared when I played it as a kid, I had my big brother beat the level for me.

Also, Morrowind in general. It had an intense atmosphere and I didn't know how to play it all that well. So I would explore and avoid most enemies. Those cliff racers should fuck off.

So we had the n64 set up in the basement as kids and I was down there playing this game with my siblings. They decide to lock the door and raise the volume to max while on the staircase. I started screaming and crying so they shut the tv off and unlocked the door only to turn the tv back on. So I'm frantically running up the stairs while this song was blasting. I nearly shat myself. Good times

Fun fact. This song is an auditory illusion called a Shepard's tone. It gives the illusion of an infinitely rising or lowering pitch

I think it has to do with the frequency of the sound or something, it gives me a little tingly feeling at the beginning

The headcrabs in half life were already the reason I restarted that game a thousand times as a kid. When I eventually finally gathered the courage to play further the part where you have to climb around the cylindrical room with those 3 big beaked tentacle things was a nightmare. Took me like hours to beat it because I kept chickening out.

Doom 3

Only played like an hour of Dark Cloud as a kid. 100 levels of dungeon crawling as a kid with survival elements just had me nope-ing the fuck out.

my nigga

it was unironically way more tense than Resident Evil. The basic enemy being much more powerful than RE's zombies did a lot for the game.

woah, literally two of us that played this game

Thats weird, I always thought this game was insanely comfy. I was almost mesmerized by it as a kid.

Your welcome... Now play the second one and suffer with us...

I literally pissed myself the first time I played Nightmare creatures

I was fucking scared by the menus and the boxart.
Couldn't go up to the second level because I was too scared to continue.

my nibber lol i remember playing that on some euro demo. Shit was creepy. Great atmosphere.

Sims 2

Fatal Frame 3 scared me shitless
I dreaded going to sleep (in-game) and having to venture into the spooky mansion again, but at least I was always safe when awake at home. Then I saw the ghost under the stairs.

this but for snes
not even the enemies, the backgrounds were the most disturbing thing that I have nightmares to this day

>Had a demo disc with Fatal Frame 1 on it as a kid
>Remember the ghost music being scary back then

What legend is the blonde one supposed to be?

I don't get you people, I found that music FUNNY. Unironically.

My cousin and i had a great time shooting those funny looking/sounding aliens but then those flood
had to show up and it stopped being funny immediately.

I saw a friend of mine playing this game on his computer in the 90's. Everything was so creepy.

I'll check them out, been driving me crazy for years

Splatterhouse 3 but I couldn't stop playing it.

Metroid prime at the part when lights go off in some alien scientific facility

The 64 versions of these made me cover my face with my hands but these made me run out of the fucking room terrified.

>Someone else actually played that game

My sister had the Game Gear version: she got pissed that I was able to beat it before she could. Maybe she shouldn't have hogged my Game Boy with Link's Awakening, then.

not a single twisted metal black

I used to start crying whenever my cousin made Link put on the masks. Not because I was scared of it but because I had a crush on Link and I hated to see him in so much pain.

What the fuck

We used to scare each other shitless talking and speculating about this fucker. None of us knew what a glitch or exploit was or how to pronounce its name, so we called it Missing-New and came up with weird-ass conspiracies how it's related to Mewtwo and Mew.

Pokemon Red was my first game more complex than a Pacman clone for DOS, it felt all so overwhelming.

My dad gave me a game he randomly selected off a shelf at the store when I was 7. Turned out to be Soul Reaver. I cried when Raziel was thrown into the lake of the dead and I was scared constantly throughout the game. Didnt understand what I was doing most of the time since English isnt my first language. Finally understood the plot when I was 15 or so. Really helped with my english and is still one of my favorite games of all time. Dad liked to watch me play it. It was the first game he genuinely enjoyed because of the poetic english.

>and I was scared constantly throughout the game.
I think that's pretty justifiable

still traumatized at 30 by that scene haha yeah I actually still see weekly nightmares haha

The cutscene for the Ripper Roo boss fight in Crash 1 scared me as a kid. Just seeing him jump, it was strange and unnatural.

Silent 1-4
I used to watch my dad play them

First the bokoblins.
Then zant
Then the shadowbeast.
Then the poes.
Then arbiters.
The game is still one of my favorites

This thing gave me nightmares. The scissors and paper guys were also awful. Pair it with their heads flying off in their second face with this background music youtu.be/dhMFQTwkrZM and picture poor little me almost shitting his pants everytime he played this shit.

We had a demo disc that had this on it, and all the stuff about infection and the body horror transformations was deeply unsettling to me.

(Another Ecco post)
I never really got far in the game, but there's one moment I will never forget.
The result from trying to high-jump at the beginning of the game

glad i'm not the only one. falling into the void in any game whether it's minecraft or just clipping through the floor in a game fucking terrifies me. i feel nothing but dread

Jesus. That's ominous as fuck.

I was in middle/high school. Fuck everything.

I remember exactly which room. It was really dark too. The first few chapters were poop pants fuel for me as a kid especially the zombies and the sounds they made

The scene in abes odyssey where he sees the guys in suits having a meeting used to really unnerve me for some reason.

Just the teensies’ warning about the knaaren was enough, but the music that played when they saw you was too much for me.

those legions of fast melee drugged ninjas in the final level were too hard, i spent forever flying around on jetpack trying to find the perfect vantage point and then cheese the whole wave with the blasters

I played SH1 like at 9-10 when it came out. I knew very little, mostly “its a spooky town and shit” by the cover description. We didnt have magazines where I lived so renting/buying games was mostly a guesswork and seeing what caught me and my sister’s eye.
The intro in the dark narrow path scared the absolute fucking shit out of me.

Nightmare Creatures 2
good soundtrack tho

Came here to say this. I was about the same age and a few friends (slightly older) brought it over to play on my birthday. We cut the lights and they made it as far as the school. I had nightmares for weeks. I still can't play it even as an adult, it triggers some deeply ingrained fear in my mind and i just wanna turn it the fuck off.

Fatal Labyrinth on Sega Genesis.

The first 3 SH games (never played 4) are still very uncomfortable to this day. I only played them last year as well. Everything from after the hospital to the end of the prison in SH2 is honestly the most uncomfortable stretch of any game I've ever played.

My friends played Silent Hill one a few years back and I watched some of their playthrough. I had no fucking clue there was a sewer section, let alone that it had scary fucking clowns. Would've never made it that far, the hospital was too much of a mind fuck. Entire rooms/floors that disappear? no thanks.
I've never been able to get my hands on any of the others, and i dont honestly believe i'd have the balls to play through them. I hear 2 and 3 are outstanding, though

I still remember the terror of fleeing Dumah through the empty halls of Ruined city. The stomping of his feet and that fucking laugh he had combined with intense music. God damn, what a game.

2 is great, didn't love 3 too much

holy shit that's fucking disturbing

Gay.

Halo, specifically the Flood

beBENG, beBE, beBENG!

i couldnt be scared of them just for the little chattering noises they made

I fucking turned off the game and never played it again after that.

Uncle grimly scared the shit out of me, even if he didnt do shit, he just stood there and I was expecting him to violate the shit out of me.

Played SH2 with my twin brother and our uncle soon after release, we barely played ourself, just watched as our uncle did. The fucker was sitting near light switch and turned lights out randomly when spooky tension rose. Scared the living shit out of 9 yo me and my bro, we screamed like a pair of wounded piglets in pure agonized terror.

I couldn't play stage 3 in banjo-kazooie. that huge metal shark thing scared the shit out of me. I also never played jolly roger bay and tiny huge island in M64 because I was too afraid of the eel and the fish that ate me.

I wanted to play that game for the longest time, we were poor and my dad wouln't buy us a ps2. Last year I decided to get one and hacked it, first game I launched was this one, it's shit.

Imagine being a kid putting passwords in to try and get past that fucking octopus and putting in NNNNNNNN as a password and being warped into a fucking meatgrinder created by ALIENS.

The Gfed Camp in Prime 2 scared the shit out of me as a little kid. The section is pretty easy though.

>not a tranny
That's what they all say, go dilate.

RE4 unironically. Regenerators still fuck me up

Good work, uncle.

Sounds like an amazing experience. It's a shame I'll never be able to experience such a jump in depth with a bro like that.

3 is shorter but extremely good, and looks fucking amazing for the time.
2 isn’t scary, more of a horrible sense of dread, loneliness and sadness. It’s a game that punches you in the gut and makes you suffer.

>Metroid
everything leading up to nightmare was pretty great as well, where you could see and hear him in the background
