Slender Man has become an internet phenomenon. Originating from a ‘Something Awful’ thread, the popularity of Slender Man has increased ever since. There are tonnes of mythology behind the character, who appears to be 8-15 feet tall when captured in photos and 6-8 feet tall when captured on film. Slender Man is a figure who has a plain white face with no facial features, wears a black suit with a grey, black or white tie and has generally normal shaped hands. He has been appearing in photos and videos on the internet since the beginning of his existence. He has become synonymous with creepy horror stories on the internet for years; he now has his chance to scare you in video game form with the latest indie PC game, Slender.
The development of the horror genre hasn't been without its twists and turns. But today, what does a game like Resident Evil 7 have to do to impress gamers?

Mike Clark from G4@Syfygames explores some of the video game enemies that made terrifying noises that haunt him to this very day.
No mention of Clickers from the Last Of Us. Hearing those through my headset terrified me.
Only one comes to mind and that is RE4'S Regenerators/Iron Maiden so terrifying Imo lol
No feral ghouls from Fallout 3 either. I remember the first time I heard one, it scared me pretty good, because I hadn't seen or heard one up to that point.
