IGN has compiled a list of some of the scariest game over screens in video games, ranging from cult classics to lesser-known indie titles. Examples include Haunting Ground, where players hear the aftermath of Fiona's death; Siren: Blood Curse, which features a blood red screen and chanting villagers; Fatal Frame, where the protagonist is grabbed by thousands of hands; The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, with its unsettling moon crashing cutscene; and Hylics, which shows the protagonist's face melting off. These game over screens evoke fear and unease, adding to the horror experience.
