Does modding ruin the fear of the game?

+rep for that last post...

The real masterpiece is giving the fear of monster appearance, even tho it never makes appearance and make monster appear where you actually would least suspect him to appear.

I can easily say that custom story which has zero monsters can or maybe even is way more scarier then story which has many monsters... Just from that fear that monster will appear. More later the game goes, more person will fear about monster appearance, what will make game more scary, what will make player more careful and scared, what makes custom story more scary.

Edit: Oh, and developer don't have to worry about things like check-points ;P...
