Strange as it may seem, the thing that continues to give me willies is the shark that roams the waters in the Rusty Bucket Bay level for Banjo-Kazooie. I don't know why, its just the Jaws music starts playing and I'm swimming my ass off trying not to get hurt. I'm not hydrophobic or nothing, but I just can't play that level without my heart racing.
And I'd say the ReDeads from Wind Waker. The ones from OoT and Majora's Mask didn't scare me(I Always thought that it was Link screaming
) but when you clearly saw the mouths move to the bloodcurdling scream from Wind Waker, and Link even shivering, that was about my response.
Del Lago from RE4 used to be a little creepy to me but then I started doing speed runs and that feeling passed.
And yeah, that eel from Mario 64. Strange, that's three water based enemies...seriously, I'm not hydrophobic, but I just don't like THOSE creatures.

I'd have to say the Witches from L4D because you hear the crying and then you get tense, you have to turn out your light so you can't see, and then when she does come after you she's either suddenly up and charging at you or you turn around she's right in your face preparing to claw your nipples off.
There's also the eel underwater from Super Mario 64. Something (I don't know what) about that thing scared me.
The bear from Condemned 2 was scary due to the fact that you can't fight him and the whole time I was running from it the only phrase out of my mouth was "Holy shit, holy shit, holy shit."
The Chainsaw guy from Resident Evil 4 was frightening because when you hear him rev that chainsaw you know he's nearby but you don't know where. I think the chainsaw sisters were not as frightening because you know that they're coming but the chainsaw guy is usually so sneaky that you don't know he's there until he's already sawing you into a bleeding, splattered mass of dead.
To this day, I still can't stand to play the hedge maze area in Resident Evil 4 because I can't stand when the dogs jump out of the bushes to gnaw at your genitals and tentacle rape you to death. Those tentacles and the sudden surprise attacks have always scared me.
The only other thing I can think of are the Smileys, Piggsy, The White Rabbit, and The Skinz in the Junkyard, all of which are in the game Manhunt. I'll explain why.
The Smileys: They talk all kinds of psychotic nonsense, wear smiley face masks with words such as die written on them, and they're just generally scary.
Piggsy: What's not scary? A fat guy in a pig mask with a chainsaw, sorta like Vincent Smith in the movie Motel Hell. Enough said.
The White Rabbit: People in dirty, creepy animal suits always scare me.
The Skinz: The always scared me when I was walking through the open junkyard because they would break the eerie silence with an ear-splitting scream that makes your heart skip a beat or two while you frantically search the darkness trying to find out if he's about to slice off your nipples or shove a knife (or bat) up your ass.
Sorry that it's so long but I wanted to get them all out there and explain why.

Me and a friend have a contest going. We take turns doing to "Voldo Slide" as we call it in public. It's completely and utterly embarrassing, and just downright hilarious. Part of why I never found Voldo scary was because we could make fun of his primary method of transportation so easily. Otherwise, I'm sure I would feel different about him.Alvandera said:
Death Claws in the Fallout series scare me most. Its just something about a nine foot tall nightmare with claws that cut through armour like a knife through butter that freaks me out.
i know this isn't really a character but the first thing EVER to really scare me was when in resident evil 2 you are just walking around and some i think it was crowsw just break through the window out of no where.... i almost p'ed
Kinda like most of the underwater portion of the original Half-Life...every time I saw one of those underwater monsters my thoughts were as follows: "Oh my god, oh my god! get outta the fucking water!" as I scrambled frantically to the nearest ladder.Fightgarr said:
Also, the invisible bug things from RE4 messed me up pretty bad, especially in the sewer section. I mean, by the time you notice 'em they're already right next to you. Oh, and the Garden Maze in RE4 also.
Guess what, I got another one. When I was little, I borrowed Dino Crisis (first one) from my neighbor, the next day I returned it because I didn't even want that game in my house...The music and atmosphere of that game...*shivers* I still haven't beaten it to this day. (-_-
The Arrogant Man from the CHZO mythos games. His whispering and pulling you back to the Plane of Magic, and his following and teleportation and the blood and OH GOD MAKE IT STOP! I could barely play Trilby's Notes without screaming in horror.
i was also scared by that and the fish in the place with the big mushroomsTorturedHylianSoul said:
or the witch from left 4 dead
You heard it too? Oh man...I thought I was the only one...Michael_McCloud said:
Can you actually do what it asks?
Like Likes. Fucking Like Likes. ReDeads are pretty disturbing the first time you encounter them but you'll get used to them. When I see a Like Like I always shoot them with my bow from an as high as possible distance. I also really hate the sound they make.
No kidding.Praelanthor said:
"Step away from him! Step away! He brings you truthh, and you condemn it?! The arrogance! As you pass judgement on him, I have come to pass judgment on you all!"
Oh God, and the sounds they make... *shudder* The ones with the spikes were even worse.PirateKing said:
The mannequins in the 1st Condemned... They're following you. I hate walking by mannequins in the mall now.
Gah, I hate Iron Maidens. Those things were a *****.Frank_Sinatra_ said:
As for me, I'm afraid of The Witches from L4D. Just hearing those things scares me. Plus, you then have to have a firefight in the dark in order to avoid pissing it off.
The Lurker Shark from Jak and Daxter has scared me for life I can't go in water in any action game without looking over my shoulder.
In legend of zelda Orcarina of Time whenever you're running and then a skullta drops down out of freaking nowhere. and the people in the Spider House.
