10 Video Game Endings Worse Than A Game Over
6. Everything Is Bad (And You Are Maybe Evil) - The Park
Enduring a creepy, possibly-haunted theme park isn't exactly good for anyone's mental stability. It's especially unhelpful for the protagonist of The Park, Lorraine Maillard. Throughout the game, it's left unclear whether Lorraine is being haunted by the ghosts of the amusement park, or whether she's suffering a psychotic breakdown.
It seems to be a bit of both, though, as her ordeal-ridden life was heavily linked to the Park and its suspiciously high death rate - which would claim her partner while she was pregnant with their child.
As such, when her child disappears into the abandoned park years later, she's understandably more than a little mad. She only grows more upset when it's revealed that Nathanial Winter, the owner of the park, has become a legitimate monster who now feeds off human emotions.
This all culminates in either Winter using his weird supernatural powers to control Lorraine into stabbing her boy in the head, or Maillard doing it of her own accord after a series of hallucinations. Either way, she doesn't actually want to do it, and her heartbreak as she hands herself in to the police afterwards is actively painful to hear.
But that's all okay, because Lorraine appears once more in a game named The Secret Worlds! Where she's... made into the unwilling carrier of a magical bee, who tortures her every day, but also makes her immortal, so she can't die.
Tough luck, Lorraine.
