The department store level in Condemned was creepy as hell, especially when you get to the part where the creepy run down Christmas music is playing. The level in the house where you're following the writing all over the walls was creepy as hell too, I spent the whole time expecting someone to jump out of somewhere.

All of Silent Hill 2 was terrifying.

And the Dunwich Building in Fallout 3 was certainly good for a couple of scares.

Oh, and the creepy horribly deformed girl who you couldn't kill until you got to the part of the plot where you shove her off a cliff in the first Resident Evil. Getting chased by her always scared me.

The first Flood level in Halo 1 scared me but I was like 8
Then it was Ravenholm in Half Life
Then playing the Silent Hill games my friend gave to me.
In that order

Anything involving Mr. Chainsaw and Resident Evil 4.
Particularly the big one that hangs around on mercenaries.
Nothing in RE4 is scary if you have the unlimited rocket launcher xD

The last boss in Fatal Frame 2 was pretty damn scary.

I must really be getting old, can't believe no one has mentioned System Shock yet. :D Easily the scariest game of its day, although Thief with it's ultra creepy sounding zombies came pretty close.

Scariest level has to be the hydroponics lab where you first meet the 'midwife' cyborgs but even the vanilla 'grunts' are scary at first. "Your flesh will welcome us..."

I still think the school level in Condemned: Criminal Origins was scary. Or the store level, where you couldn't tell which mannequins were enemies until they had already started attacking you.
I remember shitting myself when I saw one dissapear behind a pillar in the edge of my view.

Your trapped in a small house with a murderer...still scares me.
Oh god, the basement terrified me more though. I was just running around the top part for awhile hoping I didn't have to go down their. Everytime I was hit I literally jumped out of my seat.
I think the game is just terrorfying in general. Especially the part when you take the pictures of the guy in the locker. D:

Or try playing Penumbra: Overture.

As has been mentioned numerous times in this thread already, it's gotta be the good ol' Shalebridge Cradle of Thief: Dead Shadows fame for me anyway.

Even listening to the cityfolk taking about their experience of the place earlier on in the game gave me the fear. Good work all round, then.

Condemned, department store, Condemned, Library, Condemned, School. Hell, the entire game scared the crap outta me. Except chasing the guy/being chased by the guy around the house. That wasn't scary at all, as I had a weapon, and he was alone.

And the very first time I went to find Strelok's hiding place in STALKER. That bloodsucker scared the SHIT outta me. I could already barely see shit, and then he pops up, first time I ever saw anything like him, slashes me, I run through an acid anomaly, and he runs off, stealthing, to attack me on the other side of it. I was like "OHSHITWHEREISHEIDONTWANNADIEOHGODSHIT", basically.
