Scariest Monster / Thing in a game?

So, what freaked you out most of all in a video game?

For me, possibly the enemies from Dead Space or Silent Hill... Pyramid Head wasn't pleasant to get chased by.

I wasn't terrified, but I wasn't happy either!

silent hill definitly has some of the most warped monsters, enough to keep them in your mind until the day you die.

SHODAN.

I remember being properly scared when a zombie first appeared (exploding out from a wall IIRC) in RTCW as I had no idea it was anything other than a WW2 shooter at the time, so I really wasn't expecting anything like that

The weird mummy creatures/aliens at the end of Tomb Raider 1. I didn't like them :\

The Alien type beasty things that chase you across the roofs in HL2 made my ring piece whistle dixey.

Not SHODAN, but the cyber nurses or whatever they were called. The sound of them terrified me.

The spiders that first jumped out on you near the start of the first Resident Evil.

Also The Many in SS2. Their apologetic moans while they bashed your skull in were very unnerving.

That also brings me to probably THE most terrifying gaming experiences I've ever had...the Project Zero series.

The original scared me poopless.

I cacked myself at the first Zombie and Spider I met in Minecraft!! lol

The big underwater fish things in Half Life.

MeMeMeMe · 26 Dec 2010 at 19:01

The spider things and cherubs in Doom 3, the fast headcrabs in Ravenholm in HL2, and the aliens in many scenes in AvP2.

The dragons in Dungeon Master

PapaLazaru · 26 Dec 2010 at 19:06

The invisible water monster in Amnesia.

Never has something you can only see the footsteps of and hear, has scared me so much.

Have only one round of ammo left in you shot gun trying to escape the library in metro 2033, when your surrounded by Librarians mutants.

The huge spiders in Resident Evil

Schnippzle · 26 Dec 2010 at 19:08

Krist from Rise of the Triads scared the living daylights out of me.

2 moments that made me jump out of my skin...

* that bit on Resi Evil (1 or 2, don't remember) where you are walking down a corridor and some arms smash through a window and grab you!

* Turok when you are in the caves and a big monster smash's through a wall :O
