8 Scariest Video Game Moments That Made You Turn The Console Off
1. Outlast Whistleblower - Knob Terror
For those who managed to get through Outlast without needing a change of pants, Red Barrels released a story DLC pack for the first game called Whistleblower.
Trapped in the Asylum with you are several murderous inhabitants, including one Eddie Gluskin, who fancies himself as the groom to your bride.
In a terrifying sequence, you will be captured and brought before Gluskin, who traps you inside a locker and forces you to stand witness, with a lovely view of the operating table, as Gluskin tears his way through a few other male victims, mutilating their genitals in order to create his perfect wife.
No matter your gender, you’ll be crossing your legs in terror watching the scene unfold before you, the whole time wondering when your turn is coming.
When you black out, and open your eyes to see your character strapped up to a giant contraption designed to feed your delicate fineries into a giant motorised saw, it’s enough to make the bravest of players’ stomachs turn in terror.
If you manage to stick through the scene, you’ll be awash with relief when you do manage to escape, but still, the whole thing is just a little too close for comfort.
