    Aphel, this is a great friggin article. You understand how a horror game works, let the PLAYER come up with their own tales of the area provided. I see too much cliche these days with horror movies. These videos can DEFINITELY be a stepping stone for future horror settings.. the ice and shit is scary imo, meaning you can't run without slipping, etc. Neat article and what scares me is the sounds, like music that makes you uneasy and silence. I can't stand silence in creaky areas, such a paranoid person when it comes to that. Thanks for the watch and read

    Been to Monte Palace, a haunted and deserted motel. It didn't scare me off when I was exploring the building but afterwards, when looking into photos, I noticed there was this random guy staring at me from one of the rooms. Thank god I did not enter that room, could have been stabbed to death or worse.Nice article, I like your theory of good horror games and agree with it.

    Saw the whole clip and I had to turn down the sound at the end i.e I was scared. Hated that wind noise or whatever it was.

    I finished Amnesia The Dark Descent with a lot of pain. It's obviously the scariest game ever. But it's still a game while this place is for real ...
