Some computer and video games are supposed to be scary, but that's okay because we as player characters have the power to destroy The Legions Of Hell. These examples, however, leave us wondering what the hell the script writers were thinking.

This can often occur while braving Big Boos Haunt during the Night Of The Living Mooks. Also, while not quite the same thing, many Demonic Spiders can lead to nightmares.
