Scariest level/area in a non-horror game?

Jane Doe XBL · Aug 7, 2019

Like the title says, what is one of the scariest levels/areas in a non-horror game that you've played? And why?

Mine is Ravenholm from Half-Life 2. I first played that game years ago on my old account, I was a teenager back then, plus I hadn't gotten into horror games yet. So it scared me quite a bit. It still scares me, but just not as much.

The reasons why it was scary for me? The eerie atmosphere, the zombies, and it's the first time you encounter the poison headcrabs. I hate those things, they still freak me out! That hissing noise when they spot you, and that awful screech when they jump
and attack you? Gives me chills. The worst part is that they lower your health to one point! And not to mention the zombie that carries them on his back and throws them at you! Rude. >:U I make sure to have plenty of grenades with me.

Another area worth mentioning is the ant-lion nest area in episode 2. I'm not a fan of insects. So when I first played that game and found out you have to go through the ant-lion nest? I thought I was gonna cry. That area doesn't bother me as much now, but
I still cringe a bit when I play that level.

Now it's your turn to share. Thanks for taking the time to read through this.

I've always thought the Flood on the original Halo was pretty freaky... kept me on edge!

When I was little, the sixth mission of Halo CE.
I was afraid of the music that had that atmosphere before the floods appeared.

I jumped the first time I saw the flood in a Halo game coming at me. The bigger scare for me was playing the King Kong game on the 360 with the giant bugs. That had me cringing. Those are not something I would want to see in real life.

One of the missions for excaliber umbra on warframe got pretty creepy haha.

Scariest level in a NON horror game? lol

Minecraft. You're happily digging some sand, to make sandstone, and all of a sudden the ENTIRE surrounding area around you FALLS, you end up falling miles down, MIRACULOUSLY LAND with one heart, and start to see creepers and a skeleton, moving towards you,
about to fire arrows. Do you eat, lay a torch, or do you draw your sword?

Yeah. When you've been working on your world for a while, chillin with music/ambient YouTube vids, and this happens.. it's scary. xD
