Well lets see. I just rank these games with experiences that scared me the most. This was all played with volume at FULL.

The scariest game 1st- Silent Hill 2 (Radio doesn't buzz when an enemy is hiding in the hotel and jumps out screaming from the dark. Random screams and noises. PHYRAMID HEAD)

2nd-Haunting Ground (Constantly being chased through out a castle helpless while insane people stalk you and attack you without warning. Hewie the dog (which helps you) starts barking that an enemy is coming, you go to hide in the closet not knowing that the stalkers in there.)

3rd-Resident Evil Remake (Walking in a silent hall while out of no where a Hunter burst through a door screaming. Enterting a room and all you see is a Crimson Head(zombie that runs) running towards you with heavey breathing.)

4th-Enternal Darkness ( Walk into the washroom and check the tub. While you do this the screen just flashes a close up of your face in the bath tub with blood in it with a loud scream! Sanity effects are done well. A fly appears on the screen and you acully think its real, Your body starts to blow up. Black screen pops up saying your memory card is corrupt, screams,etc.....

5th-Siren (Was a bit tense at the begining but got a bit less tense. The tension builds back up when your in the school and you cant see the creatures in the dark while they move and scream.)

6th-Sanitarium,Clock Tower,etc I've played basically everything i just cant remeber the other games that gave me a good scare.

Least Scariest Horror Game-Resient Evil 4

The scariest game I played was Bram Stoker's Dracula I played it around 18 years ago. I had it on the Sinclair Spectrum Plus 3 it might be out on P.C. I will take a look for it.

It was a strictly typing game I loved it.

:O Tell me when you find it.

Taking a look for it now, there is a site once I've found it I'll let you all know of it, it has screenshot of almost every computer game on the planet. It tells you the name of the software house the year it was released and what formats it was released on. I've used it a few years back but can't remember the addy.

I haven't found it yet but this game looks interesting and is the same genre as the version I played http://www.freewebs.com/matrixgamer1/ check it out if your interested.

Sick. I'm really into horror games.

I looked through many sites and still never found the Dracula game I had for my ZX spectrum +3. Will let you know if I happen to find it.

I'm thinking of buying DeadRising on the Xbox360 it's like dawn of the dead you are stuck in a shopping mall and have to dispose of Zombies. It looks real good. Made by Capcom the makers of Resident Evil I completed the first 2. I also have resident Evil o the prequel this shows you how it all started. Res evil used to scare me I loved it, it's great.

Ya i heard that Dead Rising gets a bit boring when you play it too much.
My brother use to have this game for P.C but i dont remember what its called i just remeber one scene-where your stuck in a cell and theres hay all around you and you have to find a key in the hay and go out and theres aliens outside the cell. I dont know if this game is Phantasmagoria because i have diffrent images of Phantasmagoria in my head and i know these images are Phantasmagoria for sure.

I joined this forum strictly to post my fav. horror (mentally creepy more than blood/guts) game. I just played it on the Xbox 360 last week and I was freaked out!!!

F.E.A.R (First Encounter Assault Recon)

A core element of F.E.A.R. is its horror theme, which was heavily inspired by Japanese horror. The design team attempted to keep "[the] psychology of the encounter" in the player's mind at all times, in order to "get under [the player's] skin", as opposed to the "in your face 'monsters jumping out of closets' approach". Lead designer Craig Hubbard stated in an interview that "horror is extremely fragile ... you can kill it by spelling things out too clearly and you can undermine it with too much ambiguity". He remarked that he attempted to strike a balance with the narrative elements of F.E.A.R., to give players "enough clues so that [they] can form [their] own theories about what's going on, but ideally [they will] be left with some uncertainty". Lead level designer John Mulkey stated, "Creating expectation and then messing with that expectation is extremely important, predictability ruins a scary mood".

The main source of the game's horror is Alma, a ghostly little girl. Craig Hubbard remarked that "a guy in a mask chasing co-eds with a meat cleaver can be scary, but on some level you're thinking to yourself you could probably kick his ass if you got the drop on him ... but when a spooky little girl takes out an entire Delta Force squad, how are you supposed to deal with that?" While Alma has been compared to the character Samara from The Ring, Craig Hubbard stated that she "was born out of a tradition of eerie, faceless female ghosts" and not "as an answer to any specific movie character". Hubbard acknowledged that Alma "admittedly bears some visual resemblance to the ghosts in Dark Water or Séance," but "creepy little girls have been freaking [him] out since The Shining".

F.E.A.R.'s audio was designed in the style of Japanese horror films, with the sound engineers using inexpensive equipment to create sound effects, utilizing methods including dragging metal across different surfaces and recording pump sounds. Monolith Productions commented, "The sound designers had to be concerned with avoiding predictability," since "listeners are smart ... they will recognize your formula quickly and then you won't be able to scare them anymore. "Silence was also utilized in order to "allow players to fill in the space, which lets their imagination create their own personal horror".

Welcome to the board, and thanks for the video game suggestion!

Vampire the Masquerade:Bloodlines is mine. When you go to the haunted mansion it is creepy. You see apparitions, objects fly across the room, and a spirit points toward a door where she was murdered. Besides that a spirit attacks you.

my two are

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Clear skies

and Penumbra both scared the pants off of me lol
