10 Most Haunting Video Game Collectibles
10. Habd's Remains - The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is a game home to several disturbing questlines, most of which come with their own set of unique items and rewards. From cannibalism to Ripper-esque serial killers, there's plenty of darkness in the home of the Nords.
However, arguably the most chilling item in the game comes from a side mission players will start when they discover Frostflow Lighthouse. Right from the off, players will work their way through a gruesome crime scene of a family being ambushed by Falmer and Chaurus (the two most disgusting enemies in the game) who have burrowed underneath their home.
As players make their way through the lighthouse, they will uncover journal records from the family's patriarch, Habd.
Players will learn that Habd battled his way down into the Falmer tunnels, only to see all of his family dying before being eaten by a huge Chaurus Reaper. Completing the dungeon and killing the Reaper will see players pick up a bloodied skull known as 'Habd's Remains'.
It's one of the most chilling locations Bethesda have ever conjured up, and culminates with an item that is just as haunting as it is emotional to pick up.
