Does Perma Death make a game scarier?

[Zixalf]

I'd like to give my input to this question.
No, I don't think permadeath would be an entertainable way to make the game more scary. It would make the game scarier for sure, but I think I would just get frustrated after dying and eventually stop playing.
I do think there could be some more consequences to dying. Right now you just get a scary message saying 'Do not venture into the darkness' or something like that and you can just continue playing as if nothing happened.
So if they could add more consequences (somehow) to the sequel of Amnesia, I think that would make it a lot 'scarier'.
I'm not sure how this can be achieved though, but I'm not a game designer
