What about Phantasmagoria (banned in Australia) 1 & 2 (although 1 was better and scarier). Also Gabriel Knight 1-3 they were just awesome, especially 2 with the werewolves.

I really like this thread and hope to try the games mentioned, especially F.E.A.R.- the little girl on the cover reminds me of 'Samara' from The Ring...

Quake II (with headphones) really scared me, but in an internal way- not finding my way out of a room, I hesitated to shoot the background gfx of a guy on a cross, but eventually tried it to see if it would open the exit- made me feel REALLY disturbed and I never played it again.

Chiller in the arcade also creeped me out, but I think the game that actually "jump scared" me the most is PAINKILLER (and don't laugh, I only played the demo!!)

Manhunt 2 with high quality surround sound headphones was pretty creepy.

FEAR and Resident Evil games were up thar too. Silent Hill 2 =o

Silent Hill for the psone in a basement with surround sound, and a big window to my back with the outside pitch black. In this environment while you hear the voices of small children ghosts either crying, and/or laughing.

When I was 10 years old I was so excited to play resident evil. I got about halfway through the game and the excitement was gone. that night, I was shivering from fear and didn't fall asleep. then for the next 2 years I couldn't fall asleep unless I had a pillow over my head.

Then 4 years ago, I pulled the game out and did another play through.

Yup. Good times.

Siren: Blood Curse for PS3. Creepiest settings I have seen in a game. Especially when you play as the little girl having to listen for everything while hiding in little dark corners. That was the most panic inducing scene in a VG for me.
