I can't say any of the Tales characters really scared me, but then I've only played Legendia and Vesperia, and all the baddies in there I felt sorry for because of their "only I (we in the case of Legendia) can remake the world as it should be" attitude. The only real bad guy that ever really scared me was Sephiroth, simply because of how powerful he was and how insane he went.

B gears they can go invisible so fighting them is like Dragon Ball Z.
They are also a very broken class or a skill and level based game.
You never see them coming and you going Boom with out notice would start the fear in you.
I don't say its much of the thrill fear more of like, B-gear Run! type of thing.
The Cyberdemon from DOOM (an absolute ***** to down and has a rocket launcher for a hand...that's just...evil).
The facehugger from any Alien game was something that I still find a little disturbing (it might be something pyshcological but I find the image of something smothering my face to be quite frightening, never mind the whole 'also a parasite will burst out of your chest' business).
Even though they've been said before i'm going to go with redeads. Those things are bloody scary, especially when they scream and walk towards you slowly and you can only watch helplessly, paralyzed with fear. Anything from Ravenholme in HL2 comes in at second, I was almost wetting myself waiting for that lift.
Well, got a couple here...
First of all, "Folklorist" (Yae's husband) from Fatal Frame 1. Creepy guy just wanders around, alternating between the names of his dead wife and MIA daughter. Then he catches you, shakes you, the screen goes photonegative, and he intones, "Don't be scaaared..."
I'm very scared, thank you. Even Kirie wasn't that messed up.
Along the same lines, both Sae Kurosawa and the Kusabe from Fatal Frame 2. One wanders around in a bloody kimono, giving you mental images of a slaughtered village and laughing like a maniac. The other one moans, has been clearly tortured while alive, and has this insane halo of white hair that floats in this terrifyingly creepy way. Also there are a lot of hands around him that are definitely not his, and he loves making earthquakes when you finally get to fight him.
Oh, and did I mention he one-shots you if he so much as brushes you? Same for Sae, barring one particular segment.
Silent Hill... I agree that Pyramid Head is terrifying. Dahlia's pretty creepy too (Vincent is creepy as hell but he's also the coolest character in the game).
Eddie from SH2 gets really creepy by the end... "Killing a person ain't no big deal. Just put the gun to their head... pow..." He says, while holding the gun loosely to his own head...
But even more so than these guys... Walter Sullivan from SH4: The Room is nightmare fuel. To quote a friend:
"HE DOESN'T GIVE HUGS!"
No. No he does not.
And I leave you with a final OH SHIT GET IT AWAY character, from The Escapists's very own Yahtzee... the Tall Man.
It hurts...
Wallmaster from Legend of Zelda: OoT and MM. I lived in constant fear of being snatched up and thrown back at the entrance of the dungeon when I was within minutes of reaching the bods. Not only did it piss me off that I had to go back, it grabs you so suddenly and the noise it makes is creepy as hell. On top of that a creepy floating hand grabbing you out of nowhere is pretty freaky.
