The Thief series... I´m so scared of the zombies in this game, it´s almost ridiculous.
Graphics have moved on, but still nothing gets to me more.
I think part of it is due to the fact that Garrett can´t just fight these things - there are items that hurt them, but these are usually rare and you have to decide carefully when to use them. And being pressed into a wall while watching a zombie shuffling by moaning horribly and praying that it won´t see me just never gets boring... worst level is of course the craddle with it´s puppets.
They are the only enemys that don´t make
any noises, instead the lights start to flicker und buzz when one gets near. But you still have to be very very careful.
And they don´t disintegrate if you kill them, I´m always afraid they get up again...
The haunted house in
Vampire Bloodlines was very scary the first time I´ve played through it.
I kept myself telling that
I´m the crazy undead with an axe and other things should be afraid of me, but it didn´t help much.
After the first time though you know when things are going to happen and the house loses it´s creepiness.
Fallout 3 didn´t scare me per se, but there were a few moments which were horrifying in it´s own right, with the old vaults as prime examples.
I got freaked out when I was searching for the stradivari - on your way down through the corridors you find diaries and research reports that describe how the inhabitants of the vault were slowly driven insane and eventually slaughtered each other.
"Ah, so the people went berserk because of the noise that was emitted through the speakers!
Must be the one I activated before, I can even hear it right now.

...
HOLY SH** I HAVE TO GET OUT OF HERE!!!!!"
In Point Lookout I was horrified when I first switched to third person after waking up from the drugs...
