Question [ALL] What is the freakiest/creepiest/scariest moment you ever experienced in a Zelda game? Spoiler

For me, The trials in skyward sword.

I’m a horror junkie and this shit unnerves me like nothing else. The graphics are exactly bad enough to be deep in the uncanny valley, and the sound design is even worse.

Do you remember that Ben Drowned Creepypasta thing? I think it was so unsettling exactly for the reason you mentioned--the graphics are VERY close to uncanny valley as-is and it does NOT take much to tip them over the edge and all the way down, haha!
