10 Disturbing Video Game Secrets Hiding In Plain Sight
6. Frostflow Abyss - The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
Although Skyrim can have its dark moments, for the most part, the quests in the game aren't made to disturb you.
However, these are marked quests we're talking about. And unfortunately for those with weak stomachs, the game features a secret unmarked quest as well.
Frostflow Lighthouse is an unassuming lighthouse in the northern part of Skyrim that, in reality, hides one of the most disturbing horror stories in the game, with you as its main protagonist.
When you step inside, you immediately discover a dead body and blood everywhere, starting a secret horror side quest.
As you explore the lighthouse, you learn that the owners heard a strange noise coming from their basement, and then suddenly, all of them began disappearing one by one. Long story short, their home has an entire Falmer cave system underneath it, and once the underground dwellers got hungry, they attacked them and kidnapped them.
What makes this quest a truly disturbing experience are all the notes left by dead family members. You learn that the father made his daughter commit suicide so she wouldn't be eaten alive and then volunteered to be sacrificed first to give her time to do it.
Now even Molag Bal's quest was this messed up!
