Video Game Creeps Who’ll Make Your Skin Crawl!

September 18, 2020 by Red Stewart

Red Stewart presents five skin-crawling creeps in video games…

Why oh why do storytellers do this? Why do they feel the need to drop spiders down our backs (metaphorically) through having us face a genuinely disturbing character? We get that video games are less-restricted than movies in many respects, but does that really justify throwing creeps at us?

Still, we would be lying if we said there wasn’t fun to be had from these NPCs.  If you’ve played some of the bigger blockbuster hits like the Batman: Arkham Knight and The Last of Us or even older classics like Heavy Rain, you will have an idea of what to expect from these five creeps in video games.

What other video game creeps deserve a spot on the list? Be sure to let us know, and if you enjoyed the video, why not give us a subscribe on YouTube…
