Creepy Video Game Characters Who Will Send Chills Down Your Spine

August 13, 2020 by Red Stewart

Red Stewart presents five video game characters who will make you shiver…

Sometimes the best way to distinguish a character from their surrounding cast is to give them a colorful personality. Take this one way and they’re the comic relief. Take it the other way, though, and you now have a borderline-sociopath in your setting: a sociopath who you’re not sure is on your side or their own.

Such has been the case with video game storytelling. Rich worlds full of detail are often remembered for a few oddballs wandering here, there, or everywhere. Thus, we at Flickering Myth are taking a look at five of the creepiest characters we have seen in gaming. Watch the video here…

Have we missed any insanely creepy video game characters from the list? Let us know in the YouTube comments or on our social channels @FlickeringMyth, and if you enjoyed the video then why not head on over to our YouTube channel to subscribe!
