Stalkers, from Half-Life 2. Freaky motherfuckers. Shrieking and all that. And those little stilt legs, ugh...
They posed almost no threat, but they were still super disturbing.
Wait wait, I have a worse one. The mantis demons from the original Thief. The outlandish way they pranced about, and the fact that if they hadn't noticed you, they made noises that sounded for all the world like a human baby...which then devolved into an insectile chittering hiss when they spotted you. The fact that Garrett is incapable of engaging in face-to-face combat with a drunk guardsman, let alone a hideous swarm-spitting bug monster, really doesn't help things.
