History NightmareFuel / EvilNight

** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKkglUl4tw4 loading screen music]], with its ominous wind chimes and horrible {{Scare Chord}}s. Made worse during the final stage when the track plays spoiler:over an image of Liv being used as a HumanSacrifice in the cemetery.

For an obscure horror game, there sure are a lot of disturbing things in ''Videogame/EvilNight''.

* The [[http://flyers.arcade-museum.com/flyers_video/konami/18014501.jpg game's official flyer]] features a creepy ghostly apparition with an indistinguishable face.
* In "Course A" of stage 1, in one room the wall comes to life (complete with ''[[TheWallsHaveEyes a huge, staring eye]]'') and tries to crush you.
* The AttractMode sequence with the phrase: ''"[[SinisterSurveillance We are watching you.]]"'', accompanied by a large eye at the screen. It's literally as if [[TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou the villains in the game are watching YOU]]. There is a reason why this photo was chosen as the page header.
* Upon defeating the snake boss for the first time, a limbless zombie with a ball chain breaks out from the snake's dead body. It makes you wonder what the hell [[IAmAHumanitarian the snake has been eating]], and moreover if victims are [[EatenAlive still alive]] or undead, [[NauseaFuel squirming around the giant reptile's digestive tract]].
** Confirmed when you encounter the snake for the second time: it grabs one zombie in its mouth before retreating. And the snake looks like it has bony appearance in its head (i.e. flesh peeled out), implying it did not die in its first encounter.
* The mangled-up limbless zombies with the ball and chain, full stop. Somehow, it ''still'' moves [[BodyHorror despite having no arms or legs]]. Even worse, upon death, their bodies ''[[HalfTheManHeUsedToBe split in half]]'' ''like a peapod''...complete with a lovely [[HellIsThatNoise "ripping" sound effect]]. We never find out [[FridgeHorror how the poor bastard wound up like this, too]].

** A blue version of the limbless zombie appears in the underpass stage. How likely is it that this man was chained, drowned, and possibly devoured by the reptilian creatures lurking below? Again, the game never explains his fate.
* Torso zombies. Not only are they rotting and HalfTheManHeUsedToBe, they can take up a lot of punishment before going down and can continue attacking the players ''even without their head.'' Proof can be see [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82ELgiNihyg here]]
* As much as it can be awesome, ''Evil Night'' [='=]s soundtrack can also be creepy.
** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKkglUl4tw4 loading screen music]], with its ominous wind chimes and horrible {{Scare Chord}}s. Made worse during the final stage when the track plays [[spoiler:over an image of Liv being used as a HumanSacrifice in the cemetery]].
** "Course B" of stage 1 has [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9PX2AHxnUU a rather dark and intense track]]. The choir and strange, wind-like background sounds seal the deal.

** In the background of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FfuxaHXrpdM one of stage 2's themes]], breathing and a soft foreign man's voice can be heard.

** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mKHsiGYSmnQ Unused/Unknown Track #2]] features some creepy piano and some CreepyChild laughter. Good luck to listening to this at night.
* The loading screen image for the final stage, which shows [[spoiler: the game's DamselInDistress, Liv, tied to a tombstone in the middle of a cemetery at night to be used as [[HumanSacrifice a sacrifice]], all while the realistic-looking moon hovers above in the sky]]. As mentioned above, it doesn't help that the creepy loading music plays while this image is displayed.
* The revelation that Liv [[spoiler:has been captured by an awakened ancient cult to be used as a HumanSacrifice and grant the final boss immortality. Not even ''The House of the Dead'' was this dark.]]
** Furthermore, the various [[SpookyPainting spooky paintings and portraits of Liv]] you encounter in various parts of the game. Perhaps the worst is [[spoiler:the mural in stage 4, which [[{{Foreshadowing}} depicts Liv practicing witchcraft and resurrecting the final boss.]]]]
* The "Bad" ending. [[spoiler:The final boss comes back from the grave and [[AndThenJohnWasAZombie transforms Liv's poor friends into zombies]]...right as they finally reunite with her.]]

[[caption-width-right:350:That phrase only means one thing: TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou]]

It's literally as if [[TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou the villains in the game are watching]] ''[[TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou you]]. There is a reason why this photo was chosen.''

* ''Evil Night'' [='=]s soundtrack (downloadable [[https://www.facebook.com/EvilNight1998/posts/316084635500747 here]]) is amazing as much as it can sometimes be creepy. Some musical compositions worthy of note include the loading screen theme with ominous wind chimes, the underpass theme with the VaderBreath in the background, and the game over music. There's also the uncanny nature of the music standing out from the lower-quality sound effects.

It doesn't help that the already-creepy loading music plays while this image is displayed.
