have you ever not been able to get to
sleep after playing a scary videogame
yeah well you can blame these guys
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’ll
be counting down our picks for the top
10 most feared videogame characters for
this list we’re focusing on singular
characters with actual identities had
constantly haunt or chased down the
player rather than multiple creature
types and as usual we’re limiting this
list to one per franchise number 10 Alma
fear series we’ve seen the creepy little
girl anomaly done in plenty of mediums
but never have we witnessed it as brutal
being victim to some very immoral
experiments at an early age Alma was
believed to have since been deceased
upon discovering her survival the once
troubled little girl adopted psychic
abilities and released her bloody
carnage on a whole Delta Squad unit
the complexities of her powers are yet
to be fully understood but her innate
ability to bring victims into her sense
of horror is all too recognizable number
nine scissor man clock tower series
an antagonist that terrorizes the player
with giant scissors shears is possibly
as terrifying as it gets the really
scary thing about this character is his
mysterious origin and identity each
iteration of the game depicted scizor
man as a deranged serial killer that
receives a genuine pleasure from hacking
his victims into subsequent versions of
the character are easily identifiable
from his signature limp and blue
overcoat helpful tip just keep running
and don’t trip number 8 Freddy fazbear
five nights at Freddy’s series who ever
liked animatronics as a kid anyway
Freddy is the main animatronic at Freddy
fazbear’s pizza and during the day
performs nice and friendly songs for all
the children in attendance what people
don’t actually know is that the singing
animatronic is actually alive and roams
the restaurant at night looking for any
unsuspecting humans to stuff into a
Freddy fazbear suit before killing them
Freddy isn’t the only deadly animatronic
to look out for but he also does come in
an even more terrifying golden form
which will crash your game
number seven the blinded woman fatal
frame ghosts in general are scary a
frantic blind woman with blood streaming
down her eye sockets takes horror to a
new level though due to her role in a
sacrilegious ritual this character had
her eyes gouged out by a blinding mask
in the afterlife the woman has become a
corrupted spirit who wanders the mansion
in search for her eyes being blind she
can only react to sound making your
encounters with the ghost all the more
mortifying especially given the fact
that she can teleport and appear right
before you number six
showed an system shock to this character
was a manifest of one of man’s biggest
fears a rogue AI Chinese human and we
can and we can move together showed and
was initially created to serve as the
artificial intelligence of the
trioptimum corporations research and
mining space stations
once its protagonist hacks the
programming and removes the ai’s moral
restraints showed and develops a heinous
god complex and demonstrates its
superiority by sending the whole space
station into pandemonium Shonen makes it
her sole purpose to see the main
character suffer through manipulating
his variables and psyche remember that
is his fine will that guy did you hear
number 5 SI x metroid fusion the
intergalactic bounty hunter Samus has
taken on all kinds of aliens and space
pirates but none has seemed as
terrifying to her as her own copy the SI
X was born from a parasite bonding to
samus’s suit upon the suits parts being
surgically removed it was able to
transform into a complete copy of
samus’s various suit just to aid with
the creep factor the person inside the
suit is also a replicant of Samus but
with no visible pupils its menacing
glare and daunting footsteps were enough
to leave even Samus petrified and we
mean literally since she has all the
tricks and tools that you do including
the ability to freeze you in place
number 4 Slender Man slender series the
antagonist of this game isn’t the only
feared character in the game but remains
one of the biggest urban legends on the
Internet today the unsettling character
ranges in shape and form but is commonly
signified by his black suit and tie
along with his freakishly tall and lanky
demeanor armed with only a flashlight in
the middle of the woods players must
invade contact with the Slenderman as he
doesn’t simply attack his victims on
site but stalks and maims them
psychologically
Oh
number three xenomorph alien isolation
one doesn’t know fear until their
haunted by one of these creatures the
true horror of alien is impressively
replicated from the classic 1979 film
putting players in the shoes of Amanda
Ripley daughter of the Nostromo Incident
survivor Ellen Ripley the alien is
extremely intelligent and actually
evolves with the players style of
gameplay making it all the more
unpredictable
the Space Station’s architecture makes
it possible for it to navigate through
the vents allowing its ominous presence
to follow and terrorize you wherever you
go
number two the nemesis resident evil 3
nemesis run if you may but nemesis will
find you in kill you
no resident evil foe was a spear ‘some
as this bio-organic weapon mutated by
the t-virus nemesis his sole objective
was to hunt down and to kill the members
of the Stars specifically the last one
in Raccoon City Jill Valentine this
behemoth is nearly impossible to kill
and even harder to hide from as he was
also given the ability to think and make
rational decisions armed with a rocket
launcher and regenerative capabilities
you’d have better chances taking on
another army of zombies
before we unveil our top pick here are a
few honorable mentions I am assuming
direct control number one Pyramid Head
Silent Hill 2 making its debut in silent
Hills second installment this iconic
character has transcended as not just
one of the antagonists but as a physical
representation of the player’s deepest
inhibitions with its triangular helmet
pale skin and menacingly long blade
Pyramid Head is truly an enigma
the monster is extremely violent and
kills his victims on sight at the fact
that he’s pretty much invincible and
you’ll rue the day that you encountered
this fiend in short it’s easy to say
that the most feared enemy in gaming is
Pyramid Head
