Honestly that video did nothing for me at all, but I'm guessing that's just because I had no context.
It's a very interesting concept - I've never heard of this.

But you've been wandering in the woods for quite some time by that point. Honestly, that isn't even the most nightmare-inducing visits to Grandmother's house you can take part of in that game. The most disturbing one goes to this girl, I think:

Dead Space scares the life out of me I am use to watching scary films etc but hearing nothing when you are outside and then turning around and see an alien attacking you it scares the life out of you. I ended up screaming like a little girl and am now too afraid to play Dead Space again let alone buy Dead Space 2

I dunno, I've never understood the people who find the Dead Space franchise incredibly scary. Don't get me wrong, I love the two Dead Space games, but they're not quite as scary as you'd think. Mostly, it's just waiting for the necromorphs to come out, and while you never know where they're going to come from, it loses some of its scare factor when the monsters appear and you're like "Oh, okay, there they are".
You gotta admit, though, those games do an excellent job of providing atmosphere, particularly in the second game. The part in the little school on the Sprawl was very uncomfortably creepy.

When it comes to the actual gameplay prose, Dead Space isn't at all scary to me. The ambience and sound design however, is remarkably eerie if you were to just stand and listen to it.

Gabe Newell has a beard now. It's creepy as hell.

WARNING/ACTUNG/CAUTION/ADVISO - METAL GEAR SOLID 3: SNAKE EATER spoilers may be abound in MODERATE to MINOR levels, so tread carefully.
The Sorrow Boss "fight" (if you could call it that) is pretty chilling on it's own, but it gets way freakier if you do one of the most compulsive and specific things possible.
Preferably in the mountains section of the game, if you shoot a Soviet soldier dead in the mountains, and wait until a buzzard/vulture swoops down on him and starts eating him, THEN shoot the vulture then go all Special Forces survival dining on the bird with the flesh of the Soviet soldier still in his belly, you're in for a bit of a disturbing surprise once you get to the Sorrow part. Basically, you see the soldier's ghost, shambling with a vulture on his shoulder pecking at him, voicing his disapproval of you being a cannibal by proxy. Yeah, it kind of creeped me out.
Hideo Kojima is a mad, disturbed genius.

A Blast to the past, but I think the democracy vault in New Vegas was disturbing in a psychological way. Not the lovecraftian elements or even gore, but rather the story of the democracy experiment, where the vault inhabitants were forced vote an overseer for a sacrifice every year to make sure the other citizens weren't wiped out. The worst part is being a secret test, where if the other possibility where if the inhabitants revolt over it, they would actually won the experiment and survived.
Say what you will, but it's a pretty interesting where you can actually turn an actual human failing into a horrifying tale.
