What Video Game Scared You To Death?

I want to say all of the Silent Hill games but Silent Hill 2 literally gave me nightmares. 🥺

I tend to play the 'tamer' games as a rule. Mario and Zelda type things, occasionally pokemon just because it has variations and you can ignore the crap out of it forever and still be able to pick it up and again without really missing a beat. 

I think the first time I came across a giant squid in 'Windwalker' though. It popped up behind me and I had the rumble-pack on so the controller went insane before I even saw anything. Scared the crap out of me.

Fatal Frame whenever the blinded woman kept surprising me. That game also had a nasty tendency of spawning random ghosts from nowhere and scaring you if you stay idle or pause the game.

I watched my Brother and his friend play Resident Evil 2 when I was 10 or 11 and it literally gave me nightmares for what seemed like a month

Pretty sure that was one of the reasons I was so determined to buy the Remake when it came out and beat it

The Evil Within and its sequel are pretty terrifying in some scenes. Resident Evil 7 and Outlast II because psycho hillbillies of any kind are terrifying to me as someone who lives in the south.

The original DeadSpace. When I bought it, I think I played 5 mins and put it away for .... like a really long time. When I picked it back up I had be brave for like maybe an hour and then afterwards I was cool enough to aim properly and not freak out. 

Fond memories of DeadSpace

I hear two kids literally died after playing Berzerk, so probably that one.

Not a scary game, but the bonelords and greater bonewalkers from morrowind scared the hell out of me.

Its not that they kill you, its that they destroy your strength with every hit. Now you've killed it and you can't move because you aren't strong enough to lift a foot. Have fun being imprisoned in a dungeon forever.

Also, that alien game. Again, not super scary, but impossible for me to keep going after i die continuously in the exact same spot because that motherfucker is inescapable.

Ravenholm in Half-Life 2.  Fast Zombies. *shudder*

[GunStarHero]

Condemned.

I don't do scary games. I watch my wife play them though. Resident Evil was scary. 

[resurrected]

Evil Within also.

The first thing I can remember scaring me was Yoshi's Island. Yeah that game. When I was a little kid my parents always told me that playing games at night caused bad things to happen, and the very first time I played at night I got that final boss fight. I have no idea how old I was, I just know it scared me to death.
