10 Scariest Video Game Enemies That Stalk You
5. Slender Man - Slender: The Eight Pages
Perhaps one of the most defining horror icons of this genre is Slender Man. An phenomenon which took the world by storm has since spawned theories, creepy stories and even his own movie.
It's crazy to think a simple internet story spawned a true horror legend. His simple design is perhaps what has struck with so many people. He is simply a tall man with no face and tentacle like arms. There's no massively out of this world design, but instead the minimalistic approach is what lends to this terror.
The game sees you in a seemingly endless woodland area in the search for eight pages of notes. Find all eight and you win, but the more you seek out, the more adamant Slender Man is on tracking you down.
Built around a heavy emphasis on sound design, Slender Man stalks your presence consistently and becomes more and more deadly the closer you get to achieving your goal. The trial and error gameplay constantly has us coming back for more, in the hopes to beat him at his own game.
If he catches up to you though, be prepared to leap from your seat from his startling gaze.
