what scares you?

[CarnivorousJelly]

Something that would scare me in amnesia is there is no ambient music and you don't hear the monster, not even when it spawns.

It would be pretty neat, but that would essentially be a jump scare unless you could still hear the monster talking/walking.

Silence... especially when bg sounds are constant and then just stop.

Atmosphere is a huge one for me. Little details that tie in with the plot or are slightly offset.

Pretty much anything that's not overused works great!

- Reading a note describing a Grunt and then visualizing one
