The great thing about open-world games is that they allow you to find places you otherwise wouldn't go in the story. These locations are usually fascinating places full of wonder, but sometimes they can hide something far more sinister.

Every now and then, a game can feature an eerie-looking place that hides an even more disturbing secret. Coming across a location like this can be pretty creepy on its own, but if you dare to delve deeper into its mysteries, the degree of fear can reach critical levels.

Although a game you play may appear nice and innocent, it can also contain an unresolved murder mystery, a secret monster, or a terrifying story of cosmic proportions in its darkest and scariest corners.

The discovery of such a place can send you down a deep rabbit hole that will change your perspective on the world of the game and make you wonder if it really is what it claims to be.

If you're not afraid to poke around creepy places and uncover their dark secrets, the following list will pique your curiosity. Otherwise, you might want to steer clear of the locales and the mysteries we're about to unravel.

10. Bluewater Marsh - Red Dead Redemption 2

Red Dead Redemption 2 is full of disturbing moments, however, they are usually grounded in realism.

That said, the game also offers a fair share of paranormal events, and if you're in the market for close encounters with the other side, then Bluewater Marsh is your place!

The marsh is infamous both in-game and among Red Dad's fanbase for being haunted by a very persistent and utterly disturbing ghost.

If you explore the marsh at night, you can encounter an ethereal blue figure of a woman, who speaks to you in echoed desperate cries for help. Listening to her voice and following some clues scattered around the map, you can discover that the ghost is named Agnes Dowd and that she killed herself after her tragic affair resulted in several deaths of her loved ones.

First Agnes' father murdered her lover when he found out he left her for another woman, then Agnes killed her father and finally herself when she realized what she'd done.

The story is already disturbing as is, but the fact Agnes turns into a vengeful ghost afterward takes the horror factor to a whole new level!
