The Rock Worm is the Nr 1 for me. But it is difficult to actually rate which monster is scarier, because often it has to do with environmental factors...

I don't understand what everyone finds so scary about the water horror.
For me, it's definitely the infected from Penumbra. They're creepy as fuck.

Frictional Games does a great job at making scary games with an interesting story. When I first encountered the Gray Rock Worm I knew I wouldn't want to meet a wild one, but would be cool if they really did live deep underground.

Infected
Because I dont like a thing chasing me with a bloody penis...
It makes me parranoid and run for my life :/
Second would be the Hunter !
Although it was cut out from the games it would be a great scare for crawling through the went's and jumping in your face

I too got nervous when I first met one in the demo! Their face is nice and scary, and they are smarter than the Amnesia Brutes and Grunts (I shudder to think what would happen if the Infected helped the Brutes and Grunts)

Spiders. I have arachophobia and I can't get to Section C. I try to tell myself it's just a fucking game but as soon as a giant spider jumps to my screen I can't help but pause the game and cover my face with my hands
(not facepalm..) I guess I'll have to get a savegame so I can get to Section C.Other than that.. well, I've spoiled these games pretty well (won't do the same mistake with Machine...) so I'm not really that afraid of anything. But maybe it's brute. You don't really want to get in touch with that one.

Sorry to hear that you have arachnophobia, I hope you can one day overcome it. Light/fire seems to drive these giants one (which are really annoying), but I just run like crazy (with the flashlight on of course) until I can get to a spider-free area!
Here's a funny thought, have a special Amnesia level where the Brute hunts those spiders instead of us

I believe that the thingie the Infected have is actually an umbilical cord...

Check out the Bobbit Worm.RE: What do you think is the #1 monster in the Frictional Games Penumbra & Amnesia? - The Rock Worm - 04-22-2012

Here's a video of it and a small fish (video not mine, found on Youtube) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tkUSx6aQGXU ...and below is a video of a land-based predatory worm (a Leech actually, but instead of sucking blood like its relatives, it hunts other worms and bugs! This video is also not mine but found on Youtube)

Hey, awesome videos, thanks! There are a lot of creepy crawlies out there, too bad there aren't any where I live (maybe I should be happy about that, hehe).
