Penumbra takes the cake?

[mtomato]

The first horror game I played was the first Alone in the Dark, which in my opinion is still the scariest game I have ever played (after Penumbra of course).
The worst thing about it is the fact that the scariest thing in the game is thrown on the player's face right at the beginning.

Spoiler below!

Eeeeeek!!!

The rest of the game wasn't so scary.
