10 Disturbing Video Game Glitches That Will Haunt Your Dreams

10. Slender: Weeping Angels Mode

How do you make one of the scariest games in recent memory even more frightening? Have a glitch that draws out what's supposed to be an instantaneous game over into a pointless, yet terrifying game in itself: don't look Slenderman in the face. Usually this creeptastic antagonist dogs you as you search for missing notebook pages, poking his faceless visage out from behind tree trunks until he (almost always) catches up with you and forces you to spin around and stare into his blank canvas of torment while this horrible screeching noise wails on until the screen goes black. This gamer found a glitch that happens between when Slenderman has turned you around and when you gaze into his (nonexistent) eyes. This particular glitch allowed the guy to not look at Slenderman's face, thus averting the game's end. But he was only delaying the inevitable. And besides, is being immobilized and staring at the night sky for all eternity really a better fate than just being...er...slendered? Actually, don't answer that. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZdkQ9CODuU Found any other glitches that freaked you out?
