Speaking of creepy locations in Grand Theft Auto V, the lighthouse that perches on the eastern coast of San Andreas in Cape Catfish is the stuff of nightmares. Or specifically the stuff of Silent Hill, what with the perpetual rain cloud that hangs over the isolated building. It probably doesn't help that the only known resident not only of the lighthouse but the entire area is clearly dangerously mentally ill and not somebody you wanna spend a whole lot of time around. Even Trevor feels a little uncomfortable when he picks up Ursula. One of the random hitchikers that can be picked up throughout the game, Ursula can be given a lift by either Trevor or Franklin and will ramble on incoherently in the way that all terrifying hitchikers from urban legends do, rambling on about her life story and talking about the last time she got a ride, the driver in question having apparently choked to death on his own hand. That is to say she killed him. And quite possibly buried him in an unmarked grave. Yeah, pretty creepy. After dropping her off she can be utilised as a particularly haunting booty call for the player character who gave her a ride, but more compelling are her mentions that a gardener who used to visit her a few times a week "got sick", another visitor fell of the cliff, and her mum recently passed away. The presumed grave of her mother is located on the mountain south of the lighthouse, with rumour having it other unmarked graves might be found nearby.
