The Suitor from Amnesia: Justine, for sure.
It's a shame you didn't play it, it was scarier than The Dark Descent in my opinion.

tough... Just got penumbra... so i can't say, but splashy demon isn't that bad, and brutes and grunts are scary but not as unnerving as the suiters... Malo being the scariest in my opinion

The first time I played i was definitely most scared by the grunt(s). I never found the water monster to be very scary. And by the time I bumped into the brutes I was pretty familiar with how to avoid the monsters :p

Now if a grunt/brute got infected by a Tuurngait from Penumbra then we'd be in real trouble!

Indeed! But luckily, The Castle of Brennenburg and The no-mans land of Greenland are pretty separated ^^

I think that the water monster is just amazingly scary.
It's less of a monster. It's a presence.
It has no characteristics. It is just a splashing. You can't attach any sort of personality to it or anything. You don't know what it is, it just sits in the water, splashing and waiting for you to jump on, and then you just have to run from the thing.
With the other monsters, they can talk, or grunt, or at least seem somewhat human or have imagined characteristics. But the water monster is just nothing but a waiting, featureless predator.
