Characters that used to scared you when you were a kid

Thread dedicated to those characters that used to scare you when you were a little kid.

I'll start with two characters that are actually from the same franchise. I used to be so scared that I played dumb and call my parents to show them "how cool" they were until I defeated them:

Goro from Mortal Kombat 1: The fact that you could not play as him and how realistic he was in a game full of humans was too much for 6 years old me.

Motaro from MK3 sounded so distorted that he freaked me out.

I dunno if he really scared me but (again from MK) Baraka definitely made me feel uneasy.

This chap used to make me very anxious when i first played it, especially when he took three-quarters of my health with 1 hit.

Games never really scared me or gave me nightmares when I was a kid...

But this mofo:

"Kali Ma Shakti de!"

Loved that film so much, especially the scene at the dinner table with the sheep eyes lol

Games were too abstract back then. And I was so happy that I didn't live in a country where the prime minister was not like that.

Not really scared, but seeing him, in all of it's low-poly glory, jump out of some unexpected places in Clock Tower, was pretty unsettling as a kid.

Also Mr. T from the original Resident Evil 2 scenario B.

Oh and the very first encounter with the T-Rex in Dino Crisis.

I would assume anything cat related for you including the cat from "Tom and Jerry"

Deadspace enemies always gave me jump scares. Nasty fucking aliens scurrying around.

Ah fuck, it's actually Mr X, but because it's a Tyrant, I had the wrong letter in mind.

Mr X, Pyramid Head. Pretty much every resident evil and silent hill character.

Butcher from diablo

Beholder from Baldurs gate

*Used to scare you

In English, using a past-tense verb like “used” or “did” means you don’t conjugate the second verb. At all. Ever.

Thanks, english is not my first language so I often make those types of mistakes.

Oh, sadly I cant edit the title.
