10 Video Game Moments So Scary You Stopped Playing

There are some superhumans among us who just aren’t really affected by horror. Whether it’s Grudge-style ghosts, the walking dead, or a run-of-the-mill demon possession they just aren’t too phased.

Whether it was for an hour, a day, a week, or you never picked up the game again, we’ve rounded up ten times video games got so overwhelmingly terrifying that you thought to yourself, “You know, I think I’m just going to go do something else.” And maybe switch on some extra lights.
