When I was playing the original Thief (and you know there are lots of levels with zombies and supernatural stuff) and I saw a zombie at the beginning of the level, in an isolated place or in the middle of the corridor without other ways around it, I knew that the corpse would rise and start hunting me (there are also a few fake corpses in the game that are not actually zombies). But still I was thinking that maybe it's not a zombie, maybe it's just a dead guy. So I decided to walk right on his body, convinced that it's not... So, as usual, I was approaching him steadily and when I was right on his body, an Huaaarrrgh! (brains) sound is heard. I was so freaked out that my parents were shocked watching me, even though I knew what will happen. I don't get it... how's that even possible?
On a general note, the whole Thief series is quite scary in some places. Also, like someone mentioned earlier, the Haunted house in VtM-Bloodlines is creepy, failed that mission because I gave the mirror/necklace (or what was there) to the wrong person. There are a lot of games that do not scare, but keep in a state of tension and vulnerability like Call of Cthulhu, Silent Hill, The Suffering and others Well, in Silent Hill, I got an intense rise of my heartbeat rhythm, enough to make stupid decisions.
Good Day and welcome. Thought it will be special to share your experiences on moments in a game that unsuprisingly gave quite a scarce. In addition feel free to also share some of the most scariest games of all time. Feel free to post...
