Who are some of the scariest villains you've come across in games?

I found Slenderman the Dead Hand in OoT to be pretty terrifying, but overall I don't get scared easily from video games.

LOL. Yeah... Ocarina of Time had some Nightmare fuel alright.

This is going to sound stupid, and maybe I'm actually remembering it wrong since I never went back after my experience as a kid, but a simple disembodied voice scared me. I recall in DK64 there's a Golden Banana that just seems to be sitting there, just asking to be nabbed. However, when you grab it, a terrifying voice from nowhere says in a super scary tone "GET OUT!" as a sniper is targeting you.

Clock Tower 3 was my first horror video game. The Hammer dude made me scream when he burst out of a wall.

This... Thing from Persona 3: The Answer (Video is an end spoiler, so beware!):

Also Condemned 2 Bloodshot's dolls in the doll factory. I have a fear of dolls (well more of a I get creeped out by them) so that was a fun night that I tried to beat that level.

haha, me too.

The boss battle with Maiden Astrea in Demon's Souls freaked me out... such a spine chilling motif and theme.

Pyramid Head and Nemesis from Silent Hill and Resident Evil, respectively.

There's nothing more terrifying than a freak of nature that just won't stop at anything to gut you and eat your intestines.

Oh god, I thought I was the only one. Maybe it was the way it moved.

On a totally unrelated note, how do you put inline images on this forum? EDIT: Found the button.

Seriously! You're just sitting there as a kid, going through a dungeon like usual, then BAM MAGIC HAND OUT OF NOWHERE WITH NO EXPLANATION.

I thought this guy from Resident Evil 4 was scary. Couldn't go through the area without being scared if I encounter this.

I was also scared of this guy from OoT

The first time I played OoT (in its 3D incarnation), I didn't see the Redeads in Castle Town. They must have blended into the background or something. All I remember is hearing a blood-curdling scream coming from the speaker and me dropping my 3DS in blind panic.

Terrifying.

The cry of the Lizalfos in the same game also always had a way of making me jump, especially in the Spirit Temple in which I found out the hard way that they could respawn if I stood in place for too long.
