10 Scariest Areas In Dark & Demon's Souls History

Before players are able to reach the topmost area of Latria, they first need to work their way up from the lowest recesses of the tower, a place fittingly named Prison Of Hope.

If you thought that Dark Souls 3’s Irithyll Dungeon was the stuff of nightmares, then you aren’t prepared for what you’ll face here.

A labyrinth of tight corridors lined with locked cells and punctuated with pitfalls, navigating your way through this forsaken place is terrifying enough.

But it’s not the tortured inmates that will engrain this place in your memory. That honour goes to the Mind Flayers patrolling the hallways. Able to hold you in place with their spell, these tentacle-faced monsters have the power to suck the life straight from you, which makes them just as scary as they look.

The history of this place is just as grim. In the lore, the nobility of the city were imprisoned as revenge when their queen was usurped. Their only way out was to pray to an idol of their queen at a church built into the prison. Doing so would see them carried back to the surface. However, their fate above was just as foul.
