The Boy of Silence jump scare in Bioshock: Infinite got me good. In retrospect it's totally out of place with the vibe of the rest of the game, but at the time I jumped out of my skin. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLm7ZAJUe5o

The scene in FF7 where you break out of Shinra jail and Sephiroth has killed everyone and left behind a weird blood trail really unnerved me as a kid

SOMA, when you're on the ship and have to run to the escape pod before the freak catches you, I got caught a few times but each attempt was just as frantic. Same game when going into the room to get the high pressure suit and you're again being chased with main character shouting to close the door behind, drat near poo poo myself

The first time someone shoots at you in Alien Isolation gave me a jump. The game has such great sound design, and a gun being fired is a major event. You're meant to really feel it.

The tortured lady in chains they added to REmake is terrifying. Both in running away from her and the nauseating room she lives in in the well

As a kid the first time you have to do a stealth section in BG&E past the Alpha Section guards was so overwhelmingly terrifying that I stopped playing for several years rather than risk seeing what happens if you get caught, which was that they start hitting you.

I was terrified every time Nemesis appeared in RE3, I didn't realize the encounters were scripted so I was always on edge wondering if he would randomly show up

i didn't experience it as a kid, but the scenery shift in monster party had to have made several children extremely frightened, especially before the internet with video game rental stores, when you were often getting a cartridge with almost no idea about what might be on there

Anytime a game has a super-powerful enemy that follows you throughout the whole game it's guaranteed to put me on edge.

Y'all all played Alien Isolation right? It's got some faults but it does a great job with an unscripted unkillable AI monster stalking you. It's regularly on sale for like $10 or less on PSN and worth it at that price for sure
