10 Scariest Video Game Enemies That Stalk You

4. Chris Walker - Outlast

Resident Evil 3
Red Barrels

Outlast is a testament to horror gaming, combining slow paced stealth sections with high-octane chase sequences as you attempt to foil the many deranged occupants of the mental hospital the story resides in.

One of these occupants is the towering Chris Walker who is scarred with self mutilation. He's a very large fellow and you wouldn't be wrong to assume that you could outrun his brutish persona. Unfortunately for you, Chris Walker is highly athletic and varying chase scenes will push your adrenaline to your limits as he stalks you through the dreaded corridors.

Outside of this, many slower paced parts of Outlast will have you hiding in rooms, lockers and anything else you can jump behind as you navigate your way around him, his ghoulish face scouring the room for you. Much of Outlast is in complete darkness with nothing but the night vision on your camera to navigate through.

Let me tell you, there's nothing more terrifying than being shrouded in the darkness, lifting up your camera and being greeted by his deathly stare. Yep, I'm not sleeping tonight.
