20 Most Terrifying Video Game Enemies Of The Decade
7. Mimic - The Mortuary Assistant (2022)
A haunted mortuary is the perfect setting for a horror game, and sole developer David Clarke knew how to make the most of it in The Mortuary Assistant.
When Rebecca, the mortuary's new employee, is asked to complete a night shift alone, she discovers that she's become targeted by a demon. In addition to performing her regular duties like filing paperwork and preparing the cadavers, she must also complete a ritual to stop the entity before it can possess her.
While the demon utilises creative jump scares, it prefers to torment players by getting under their skin. It will whisper in Rebecca's ear, knock on doors, and manipulate objects, doing whatever it can to unsettle. It will also use lesser spirits to torment Rebecca, with the always-smiling Mimic being the sinister standout.
Although this enemy cannot physically harm players, it's frequently seen hiding in plain sight. Whether it's lurking in the shadows or peering from behind a cabinet, noticing these subtle details dramatically elevates the suspense.
In an interview with Bloody Disgusting, Clarke explained that the game has 100 dynamic scares to choose from. this means that there's no shortage of ways for this creepy enemy to frighten players.
