Creepy stuff in non-creepy games

Let's have a thread about creepy stuff in otherwise non-creepy games. Things that are just, out of place, but also glitches, haunted games, that sort of thing.

Anyone remember getting these calls in Sims 1?

They actually scared me

Halo 2 always gave me some spooks when playing alone. When things happened in the map when I was playing alone. Game actually gave me nightmares.

This fucking music.

>things happened in the map when I was playing alone

Can you tell us some things that happened?

I assume it was due to things spawning in. But fusion coils would exploud on the other side of the map and scare the shit out of me. And the weird bridge thing on Zanzabar fell when I was fucking around with the warthog on the beach.

Now that I am older I kinda just chock it up to just the game fucking up.

>Get San Andreas
>los santos is a blast with gangsta shit
>suddenly we're out in the woods instead
>friend starts telling me he is convinced he saw bigfoot in the woods
>too scared to play at night

Also the only background music to creep me out, I can't stand hearing it

There was a snowy map on halo 2 that was rumoured to have a 'ghost' NPC that was invincible and would kill you randomly. I used to wander round looking for him and it was pretty spooky. There's one part of the level where flood are locked up in chambers of sorts and that was cool too

The truth is out there.

I wish i was memeing but here it goes:

>be me
>young child around 6-8
>get the edd edd n eddy game for ps2
>play through a couple of missions its nighttime outside, raining
>whatever, vidya
>suddenly a huge fucking bolt of lightning hit a tree outside my room
it killed the power and set the tree on fire
>check the tv see if its okay
>it was one of those old ass tvs
>kevins face got burned into the tv screen
>freek the fuck out as im laying in the dark with kevin starring at me

That is fucking great. DORK

...

It seriously freaked the fuck out of me as a child, and it ruined my ps2 and tv.

Tomb Raider on the PS1 the training map. It always freaked me out that the butler just slowly followed you around with drinks. Like you would run so far away from him, and then eventually you would hear the fucking ice cubes clinckign right behind you.

That's really stupid. It's obvious that the cars are spawning on uneven terrain and rolling away. It's just an example of R* having more world than they know what to really do with.

>Just want to play a vampire rpg with hot grills
>they throw you this fucking level youtube.com/watch?v=3v7QSN5iwRY

I think it would have been even better if Therese never told you it was haunted, then you would go into it not even knowing supernatural stuff existed.

you're so ungrateful. i would kill to have a butler that hardworking and devoted!

this one is kinda short
>be me
>get kingdom hearts 2
>me and sone friends were playing around and got hungry
>put game on pause we go to kitchen
>fuckyeahpoptarts
>suddenly out of fucking nowhere from the other room we hear someone scream “The drowning means its working!”
>go to check it out
> the ps2 had randomly shut off

i swear that damned thing was cursed

>not even knowing supernatural stuff existed.
>When you're a fucking vampire

Not quite scary, but Jesus do the sound effects in Paper Please stress me the fuck out
youtube.com/watch?v=z7-QeGdlRa8

Oh my god, that's hilarious. Do you still have the tv? Is Kevin still there?

Well it's easier to ground werewolves and vampires in some naturalistic framework than it is with ghosts.

I noclip through that shit EVERY time. Something about the early 2000s had a really spooky vibe in general.

Basically all the art for the first hitman

The calls would be frightening for children playing the game.

sadly no, my dad sold it to one of his junker friends a few months from that, but damn do i wish i still had that relic of evil

>playing 3D custom girl (old illusion H-game)
>get bored, so decide to download some mods
>download a huge modpack and just dump them all in
>boot game and the faceless guy is now some weird pink-ish colored monster thing
>quickly close it in a panic and delete all the mods
>quickly glancing at the folder before deleting all the extra files I just added, I saw a file called creature.fileextension

The censored version is honestly way worse than the original, something about that shade of blue is just sickening

...

fuck you

>Was just a kid playing this game
>First level if i remember correctly
>This game has a horrifying screaming sound effect when Flik dies, i avoided dying at all times just to avoid this scream
>I don't remember if there was a time limit or something, but the little purple ant with wings was always bugging you to move your ass
>Ignore her, i just wanted to explore comfily
>Suddenly out of nowhere, i clip from the ground to nothingness, and i died, the scream comes loud from my tv
>I reappear at the top, but after a few i-frames i clip again from the ground, and die again
>This repeats and repeats until i have no lives left
>I turn off the game and stay the fuck away from it

Obligatory though I guess Dead Hands and Redeads fit the bill as well

The fucking cave ambiance in minecraft.
Spelunking was a fucking nightmare as a kid.

FF7 is filled with all sorts of creepy shit thanks to that early prerendered look

This part freaked me the fuck out, it still creeps me out now

fuck you nigger

another ps2 story
>me and my friends having a sleepover
>decide to play some gaems bc fuck sleep
>play silent hill 4
>freakout over ever little thing possible
>ohbutthefunhasjustbegun.jpeg
>we get to the head room
>oh what the fuck
>pause and nope off the game
>were all sitting in a dark room
>one friend gets very nausious
>another starts getting a migraine
>I start feeling burning on my back
>lift my shirt up and claw marks are appearing infront of my friends eyes
>they take pictures and we are sick and terrified all night

i still have the pictures back on my old hardrive at home. That ps2 was the devil man

...

>as a kid
>implying you're still not a child

>gif
I ain't clicking that shit

Post pic

DADDYYYYYYYYYYY

>minecraft
>as a kid
get out

I can't remember if this happens in Jak 2 when you fail a mission or die but i'm sure players remember staring at a close up of a guards face at some point.

I never finished Ape Escape 2 because Giant Yellow Monkey freaked me the fuck out when I was younger and I thought the game was cursed I just turned that shit off and never touched it again. I felt violated by that obese pedophile clown monkey.
Fucking creepy as shit.

I obviously didn't take one. i could maybe google the mod, but i really don't want to see it again, at least not this late at night

...

>Hooked up with a bunch of chicks
>Sometimes bareback that shit.
>See this.
>Kinda scared now.

THIS. when i played oot for the first time i was about 8. got to the part in the forest temple where the boss key chest was, navi warned me about ceiling monsters, then the sound and shadows came and i noped hard and didnt touch the game for a year

i dont know why but medal of honor rising sun had a weird and creepy vibe to it. Like just randomly finding a golden buddah or the whole aligator thing

Hell even legend of dragoon did this shit too

...

He's probably trolling for (You)s but Minecraft is almost ten years old

>no hero at Square will ever spend the time re-rendering every single 3D model and environment in FF7-9 in 8k
>the FF7 remake won't just be that
>we will LITERALLY never see these environments in the quality that they deserve

Cave exploration when this started going around didn't feel very safe.

I was not prepared.

Didn't it come out in 2008? It really IS, huh?

That's why you're supposed to trap him in the freezer.

wait you mean he was talking about a butler in the game??

First public build was 2009

...

>The Haunted Mansion level in Vampire Masquerade-Bloodlines.

>Tomb Raider on the PS1 the training map. It always freaked me out that the butler just slowly followed you around with drinks
yes

Anyone else find this thing way more sinister than Ganon himself?

A true shame, those handful of high res FF9 backgrounds some artist had in his portfolio look amazing.

Also this fucking shit, I wish I had a gif of it

oh fuck that shit actually spooked me the first time I entered it, did not expect an actual spooky mansion.

>play sims 3
>see this

Gex 2

Was Kevin still on it when your dad sold it? Or did Kevin slink back into the depths of hell?

I love that story, but it's fake.

it was still there but like it had faded abit

The one time I forgot to check file type

FUCK

God I remember spending hours trying to find Bigfoot in SA only to discover it was all a hoax. Too real.

I thought the owl statues in Link's Awakening were the spookiest shit for a longest time because they spoke in all caps.
I was scared of some really stupid things when I was a kid.

youtu.be/LwcgG7ZYlFE?t=25

this would be so cool if it were real

ding

...

the ticket taker

I remember seeing a really high quality render of the school from FF8, but that might've just been a fan project.

Something official that I've seen in a high quality render of a FF7 area that was used for some kind of magazine ad. If someone could post that, that'd be great.

also a side note, ive had 8 ps2’s in my life and theyve all broken within 2 months of purchase. i have no clue why its just ps2’s. i keep them clean and in functioning order but just oneday they fail to turn on or read anything you stick in them

This song makes me slightly anxious to this day.
youtube.com/watch?v=pkAe7x3kOgc

Follow up, fucking Stone Tower in MM was unsettling. All of it. The music, the empty shells you left behind, the flipping. Ugh.

Well duh that entire game was just Sony trying cash in on the JRPG train of the late 90s early 2000s.

>The Newspaper stories
>The kitchen
>The lamps
>The faint roars
>The bicycle

...

I've never actually seen this screen.
I'm not bragging I would just reset before it'd come up

Fuck these doors. Goddamn, even after more than a decade they're still unsettling as shit. Fuck.

i know, but i grew up on that game vice ff7. Someday I hope for a sequel or remaster.

...

every sonic drowning song always stressed me the fuck out

i remember there was this one car in san andreas that spawned somewhere in the middle of nowhere (under mount chiliad, near the small lake)
>running around at night
>lights
>car moves
>stops couple meters down the hill
>look at it
>it's empty

it wasn't really "creepy", but atmosphere was great. such a cool little gimmick

>Play Luigi's Mansion as a kid
>Not really scary at all for the most part
>Play it in the basement since that's where our GameCube is and with the lights off
>Get to a locked door
>Try opening it
>Music fucking cuts out
>Only noise you hear is Luigi trying to open the door
>Get scared shitless and run out of the room, not playing the game for well over a week

Ocarina of time had some seriously spooky moments, like this motherfucker.

I dont know why but this image from doom made me legitimatly scared of going to hell and being confined and bond forever knowing ill never see my gf or family again forever torrmented in an unmovingmass in the pit of fire and lava forever.
sometimes I just think about that and get really scared.

>gif

Caught me off guard when I first saw it. I just sat in shock as it appeared and went away.
