Since we already have a Husbando, Waifu, and Characters you hate thread, why not a thread where you talk about a certain character where something about them that scares or has scared you. This also counts for video game enemies that you were too scared to fight.

OP here, when I first played Breath of the Wild, I was scared to fight the Guardians because I was one-shotted by a decayed Guardian on the Great Plateau while on my way to the Shrine that has the Bomb Rune. Because of this, I avoided a lot of Guardians. Thankfully, the fear didn't last very long when I was better prepared to fight them and learned that shield parrying exists.

I understand the decision to make him look a bit creepy and alien, which was actually really smart and interesting from a standpoint of the message the movie was trying to convey. But man, as a kid I was creeped the fuck out, especially at the end, when he exploded his head off and transformed into the night walker

Speaking of Ghibli horrors, I feel like there's one creepy out of place moment in every movie. For me, this thing in Spirited Away freaked me out when I first saw it. It turned out to be a nice spirit, so I guess don't judge by appearances alone, but the way it pops out the water and fades away
while saying that line is unnerving. It was way creepier to me than No Face.

AYRT as an adult I actually really appreciate the occasional ghibli creepiness, as it’s usually used to portray forces of nature which have a sort of ambiguity to them. They can be benevolent, but are meant to command respect and as such, are never depicted as cute and cuddly. I know several people who’ve sworn off ghibli movies forever, because they were terrified of them as kids and it makes me sad lol.

That said, I do think Princess Mononoke and Nausicaa are not exactly kid-friendly.

Have you seen the original concept art for the Guardians? Originally they played around with more abstract creature designs but settled on making them resemble Jomon era pottery. These remind me a lot of Stephen Gammell's work (he did the Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark art) I'm glad they went with the more spider like pottery design bc it seems more iconic but imagine having these fuckers chasing you around Hyrule instead. I hope they make a return in some form in BOTW 2.

Jfc this would've taken the game in a horrifying direction. As cool as they are I'm also glad they didn't go this route because I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have been able to play BotW.

Still, my most hated enemy in Zelda were these creepy fucks. The absolute blood-curdling terror of hearing their screams and being frozen in place as they slowly. Shuffled. Towards you. And you could do jack all about it when they crawled up your torso and molested your fucking brain. UGH.

>>110967
Yes!


My contribution will be rather obscure, but as someone who grew up with a SNES, I was exposed to a game called "Super Pinball: Behind the Mask". It fucking freaked the hell out of me when my dad popped that game in to play in the late evening or middle of the night because I knew it was the game with this creepy clown dude and other characters that looked super intimitating on a old ass television. On the top that it has this "GET READY" voice or evil laughter that appears from time to time and it took me years to not being freaked out by it.

Here is a playthrough of it because I know it sounds ridiculous to be scared of damn pinball game lol

I remember seeing this Gantz panel in a magazine when I was 14 and I was struck by it, I was in my early years of weebness and I had never read anything violent up to this point. I was terrified by the two aliens and how insignificant the guy seemed next to them, like they were some kind of cosmic gods, and weirdly enough I thought the inugami was scarier than the tengu.
And then I read the manga years later and was utterly disappointed at how lame they ended up being and how easily they were defeated

/3 This specific episode of Goosebumps messed me up. It's called Cry of the Cat.
For some reason this episode had a really serious tone that wasn't like other Goosebumps episodes.

Bless Courage for bringing horror as a genre to mainstream cartoons.
It was such a surreal show with the middle of nowhere atmosphere and use of 3D or sometimes real images to give an uncanny effect.
I don't remember actually being scared of anything from the show, but I remember there was one episode that made me sad. The one with the Cat in the mask trying to save her bunny friend from the dog gang. It touched on abusive relationships, implied rape and distrust of other dogs men because of trauma, it was strangely adult.
At the end the cat reunites with her really good bunny 'friend' with Courage's help yeah they couldn't hide that relationship I'm surprised they let such a heavy episode air.

Unlocked a weird memory for me.
My dad used to watch scary movies in plain sight in the living room when I was a kid. I walked in on a few of them. Chucky freaked me out a bit for a while. But the one that scared me badly that I forgot about for years was this creature from a movie called House. The only thing I could remember is I called her 'scary lady' but couldn't remember what she looked like besides long hair or what movie it was from. Finally I found out what the movie was called and looked her up again, and jfc, she's more terrifying than I remembered. I don't think the rest of the movie was that scary besides her, and the cover being a disembodied hand ringing the doorbell.

So I literally never realized Jenova in FFVII was supposed to be generic hot lady bod until I saw this image and how they portrayed her/it in the remake. I thought exactly like pic rel where it was this grotesque mutant entity and it scared the shit out of me when I first saw it in game. Thing haunted me for years until all the mystique was taken away. As much as it squicks me out I wish they did intend Jenova to be this undefinable body horror-esque mass of flesh with extra eyes and half-formed limbs everywhere. Way more original and would make more sense, it's supposed to be a freaking alien anyway.

Oh god yea I just bought Mononoke on youtube to rewatch after posting and when Okkoto starts changing is horrifying. I was today years old when I finally figured out he was changing because the humans hiding in the skins of his warriors put bullets in his wounds from the battle earlier. It's why he started screaming in pain prompting San to go at them with her spear. I can't believe it took me years to finally connect them to his becoming a demon. I just thought it was his hatred over everything done and the lose of his clan. Spoiler because it's certainly something.

I used to have cable back then and was flipping through movie channels until I've come across this fucker. The scene where he devoured the fairies alive left me mentally scarred as a kid. Thinking about it still makes feel uneasy.

I also came here to post them.
When I was a child, I only played OoT on emulator, and messed around with the cheats that came with it. I didn't get to experience the game normally until I was an adult, but I digress.
So one of the cheats warped you to different areas in the game. One of those was the ghost Castle Town full of ReDeads, so I occassionally encountered them by accident when I forgot which cheat that was. That's one of the reasons I preferred to play MM lol

The ones in WW scared the ever living shit out of me as a kid. OoT and MM were scary for different reasons, personally I find the stalkids that popped out of the ground worse then their version of ReDeads.

Are you my brother? These things used to make him cry when they'd pop out of their coffins or whatever they did (idk it was a long time ago lmfao) and he'd run and hide in another room when they came on screen.

Funnily enough, I made my brother fight them for me since I was too much of a wimp to do it myself, lmao.

Snow White is unironically a good horror movie. The evil queen doesn't get enough credits for being such a good villain

Not really a character, but as a young kid I was terrified of the opening sequence of the Lion King. The sight of the sunrise would send me flying behind the couch.

I absolutely despise this Pokémon with a passion. When I first came across this hellspawn as a kid, I thought its guts were on display. Can you see it too?
This shit shouldn't be in a children's game. Look at it! It's hideous.

I remember being 8 or something and watching my brother play.

Combining the gradual intensity of the operatic music with the long fight scene between Squall and Seifer was already kind of fucking with my brain but I was NOT prepared for the ripping noise when Seifer’s blade struck his face nor the realistic blood.

I also remember wanting Seifer to bully me.

mario 64 DS bowser didn't scare me but the hellish levels you had to fight him in did so I always made my dad do the boss fights for me. hated that damn dragon from crash bandicoot too, and all the lanky man type enemies.

I distinctly remember snow whites busted ass scaring me more than the witch as a child somehow. never liked any pre little mermaid disney movies, they all felt… oppressive.

I used to watch my brother play Super Metroid as a kid and the final battle always disturbed me. Not only because the boss is an exposed brain with one eye that always stares at you, but the screeches in the music, the way the boss' movements speed up unnaturally at times and the weird sound it makes when the Metroid sucks out its energy are nightmarish. Even the area of the game before the battle starts is all made up of tubes and the music has this almost off-tone sound repeating.
When I first played Undertale the photoshop Flowey really reminded me of this too, I think it has similarities and they're both creepy.

KEK these are my favorites ones in the thread, I was going to make fun of this but you reminded me I used to be kinda creeped out by the growling wolf mountain at the beginning of some of our Disney dvds… and the THX logo.

I had some cheat codes I could turn on in pokemon ruby and some of them were bad and turned all my pokemon gradually into "Bad EGG"s. Or some turned my pokemon into question marks. That was so scary. My poor pokemon, my friends, turned into weird useless objects
