So It is getting around that time of the year and I am getting in the mood to scare. So that begs the question, What really scares you? This is for games of course, what could happen in a game, specifically RM games that make you jump, cringe, cower or just itch with anticipation? I'd like to see some of these ideas implemented as well, so tell up!

I'll go first: For me, one of the creepiest thing a game can have is music and sound effects, sure jump scares get me and I have anticipation for scares as well, but what sets off that anticipation is good creepy music, or sound effects that are subtle and creepy at the same time.

Just came across this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lawxkSB13J8...5M1JavPCOr_Uydg

Some good points backed with solid examples, so its worth the five minutes out of your day if you're serious about making a horror game.
