The creature that haunts your mind.

[0p3rati0n]

Myself in a state of pure evil. Where my eyes are completely blacked out and a black blood is running out of my mouth and eyes and I rip off the necks of people. Not super creepy but pretty disturbing if you think about it.

 

[DuctTapeJedi]

My mom.

She haunts my nightmares.

You jest, but the last nightmare I had was actually of my mother. She was everywhere I went and kept asking me where I was going, what I was going to do and where I've been; all in that annoying, accusing voice she does.

This may not sound so bad, but I mean she was seriously everywhere. Every room, outside, in the car, everywhere. It seriously woke me up scared. And no, I don't have a good relationship with my mother.

Who said I was joking?

My bad. That's just how it came across to me. You know, the age old problem of the intended tone not always coming across in writing.

No worries. I think worse things have happened than someone misinterpreting a forum post.

 

[Heronblade]

The one recurring nightmare I've ever dealt with involved no monster at all. Just loss of control. Looking out from a prison as my body said and did things with no influence whatsoever.

 

[FarleShadow]

A snake. I've woken up more than I care to mention when my leg falls asleep and I suddenly feel the need to fucking jump out of bed and end up properly waking up in the goddamn hallway because I hate them.

Also, snakes are real, so fuck you.

 

[MikailCaboose]

It's a small child. Pale white, with a little dirt. It's eyes, though, are black balls. Sightless, yet voracious and ireful, and you can always feel it, watching you. Its face is almost lifelike. Almost. It gives the sense of being more porcelain than actual living creature, bearing no discernible expression. Its voice is raspy, and rarely speaks. More of a small, mocking giggle. And then its smile. It forms like a crack upon the porcelain, spreading much farther than a human smile ever could, revealing naught but a gaping bleakness, with a shrill screech that pierces into your very mind.

Well there ya go, the little beasty I sometimes use in my horror shorts.

 

[Kamehapa]

A Cheshire cat grin with long inwardly curved white luminescent fangs; glowing red eyes with very small almost crescent like pupils. It has long black fur that protrudes out almost like spines, and has razor sharp claws. It's shape is almost like an amorphous blob, and can move on either two or four feet.

This is just what popped into my head as I saw the title of this thread... if I thought about it, I could probably come up with something scarier.

 

[fgdfgdgd]

A HUMAN CHILD! boom /thread.

 

[theSovietConnection]

SCP-176. There is nothing scarier.

Are you sure you meant 176? It's just an abandoned factory.

Anyways, the only creature I can think of is Slenderman. It just... bothers me, for some reason.

 

[Vault101]

I watched I am ledgend way back in 2007

and the darkseekers... they SERIOUSLY freaked me out, and by then I discovered the internet and alsot of people found the CGI laughable, but they really scared me and at the time I couldnt quite explain why

but now I know, it was because of the Uncanny valley , which is why I found them scary compared to actors in amke-up

 

[shwnbob]

You know the "type-one vampires" in The Dark Tower series? The things with giant mouths and loads of teeth? Those guys freak me out.

 

[Klarinette]

Anything that resembles a centipede. I don't feel like scaring myself right now, and I'm sick so I'm not exactly creative, either.

Incidentally, the closest thing to my nightmare come to life is called a Gejigeji. I think I actually screamed the first time I saw a picture of one.

 

[Cobblerfiend]

just a hand, extending from darkness on an impossibly long arm, and it can come from any where,

no lie the one time i dreamed it, it was purple and fuzzy like a muppet and it still scares the hell out of me

 

[JordanXlord]

...Do i Need to Tell you


...Fucking Creepers

Well Besides that


The Creature that haunts me the most is

THE ZOMBIE CLOWN!!

not Just a Zombie and Not just a Clown

 

[thiosk]

[HEADING=3]Its hurricane catrina![/HEADING]
oh the humanity

so terrifying! Hard to come up with anything scarier than that.

Except every alien in warhammer 40k ever. Except the tau. those guys are stupid.

 

[Cpu46]

It's a bit ummm...how do I put this? Creatures do not haunt my mind. My mind is a spawning ground and Yellowstone National Park for such things.

Same here, it kinda got out of hand a year or so ago. My imagination went into overdrive and I had constant nightmares for at least two weeks.
On the bright side, if anyone ever tries to preform Inception on me they have to deal with the few hundred creations my subconscious has come up with.

 

[Chase Yojimbo]

I wish I dreamed of something that frightened me, it would give me something to beat when I was mad as hell.

 

[Johanthemonster666]

In my mind it was always either a freaky looking beast/canine/werewolf thing

Although now that I'm thinking about it (way before I ever played or watched Silent Hill)I did have dreams about a man with a oddly shaped cage over his head,a grungy, almost dead human flesh textured cloak around his waist dragging a giant rusty ax behind him.

That's probably why SH 2 struck so close to home when I first saw The Red Pyramid/Pyramid Head.

 

[Death on Trapezoids]

Its big, black, and has large bat like wings instead of arms. It has multiple small beady eyes that look more like black bumps on its skin. Its mouth is a gaping hole within which is a Radula (pretty much a tongue coated with tiny teeth, mollusks generally have them) that strips flesh from bone without killing the victim. Its skin is thick and almost armor like.


EDIT:

Spoiler: I drew a picture of it!

Have you ever played dead space 2? If not, avoid at all cost googling the term "ubermorph".

My monster, which lurks in the corners of my mind, isn't really that scary now that I think about it. It is, however, creepy when you're lying in bed at night during a window-rattling wind burst trying despartly not to think of every horror movie you've ever seen.

Sometimes it's as tall as I am, other times it's about the height of a lawn gnome. It doesn't have a particularly large mouth, as mouths go. The mouth is almost comically small, but lined with small, needle-sharp teeth. The monster looks like stewie, if stewie had the aformentioned mouth, and wore denim coveralls with a green shirt.

The most scary feature of this monster, to me, is the eyes. The eyes are nearly on top of the head, two of them, both huge. Larger than baseballs, than softballs, perhaps volleyball sized (on the lawn gnome sized version, at least), bugging out and used in a terrifyingly vacant stare. There is nothing in the stare; no comprehension, no intelligence, just a dead blankness. Whenever I don't have a flashlight and I encounter it, the eyes make two irridescent orbs of red in the darkness, perfectly still. Then I move, or twitch, or resume breathing, and the thing crabs, no, it scuttles off to the side while making incoherent gobbling noises.

 

[Mad Scientist]

A shadow that moves like a cross between smoke and liquid. It's tiny, malevolent, and there's no way to keep it out save making something airtight. There's no way to protect yourself from it but to constantly run.
