Silent Hill: 10 Terrifying Jump-Scares That Scarred You For Life
3. Silent Hill 3 - Borley Mansion Hallway
The Borley Haunted Mansion is a ghastly place; I spent the entire time in there wishing I could just get out of there and run as far away as fast as I could. But while the whole thing is creepy, the best scare comes close to the end of the experience.
If some of the aspects of the haunted mansion are just cartoonish enough to be relaxingly absurd, then the final moments are truly perfect Silent Hill fodder. The unheralded appearance of a sudden red glow, just when the ride seems to be over, will properly freak you out for the first time in the sequence.
Running from the approaching glow is made harder by the fact that you're probably still trying to catch your breath after jumping out of your skin when it first appeared. In this moment you remember just how dangerous the false sense of security can be in a Silent Hill game.
