10 Scariest Video Game Enemies That Stalk You
9. Laura - The Evil Within
One of the most popular fears people have is spiders. Another is the absolute dread of bumping into your ex-partner in a public place. Laura incorporates both of these.
With the legs of a spider and the mentality of an old ex who still hasn't had the last word, Laura becomes a truly terrifying presence that will make the majority of your time with The Evil Within a stressful one.
Up until the point of meeting Laura, The Evil Within is a fairly creepy and over-the-top horror thrill ride. Once you've cleared an area of enemies, you can take a deep sigh and feel accomplished in a moment of brief safety.
Laura does away with all of this.
Your first introduction to Laura is when she emerges from a dead body. Creepy right? Well, you'll quickly learn that Laura can in fact emerge from ANY dead body she sees fit, making avoiding her nigh on impossible.
On top of this, she's pretty much impervious to any attacks. Those moments of brief safety in levels quickly become stripped away and regulated to only safe rooms. The constant fear of Laura being able to appear at any given moment is one of the greatest elements The Evil Within incorporates, with a true sense of psychological horror.
