10 Scariest Enemies In Non-Horror Games

Touching on the similarities between the dark, grim, and evocative atmospheres of the Ori titles and Hollow Knight brings us to one of the most peculiar and frightening residents of Hallownest (which is really saying something): Nosk. 

This dweller of Deepnest is frightening for far more than its sinister gangly appearance, but also for its abilities and its methods. It deceives opponents by assuming forms that result in them letting down their guard. Cunning, cruel, and powerful, it has long, spider-like limbs, a curious scuttling motion and the ability to launch projectiles and fly erratically, lending it an unpredictable air that makes it quite a formidable bossas well as just a grotesque creature to behold.

While some enemies the Knight will encounter are simple, aggressive creatures pursuing prey, Nosk is something more than that. There’s an awful intelligence to this creature and its methods.
