😨Scariest moments in TR?

[OyajiBR☕]

Tomb Raider is not a horror game, but it used to scare many more than most actual horror games. What are the scariest moments you remember, not only in this trilogy?

I think ALL Core games, from TR1 to TR6, have their scary moments. But the scariest to me are the mummies in Tomb Raider 4. I was afraid to play alone, I always asked my big brother to stay close. In this trilogy, the yetis from TR2 are the scariest to me, and I'm only 1 stage close to see them now remastered. >_<'

When i was young, minotaur in TR IV was scary for me. He was fast, strong and cant be killed.
Also dead crusaders traped in pit in TR IV too...

without "black screen" (lack of rendering) covering teh TRex it is not that scary tbh.
That one rat that shows up pushing you off the platform causing your death is far more scarier now.

In the first few level's you've to open 3 gates. I was finishing a puzzle. climbing up. I hear 'thump-thump-thump.' I thought to myself 'what was that?' Then I got attacked and I flipped myself from the chair :D

So far everything Atlantis related. The mummies on Egypt were already creepy enough, but it seems that somewhere after Lara took a portal to Doom's hell lol.
The fleshy walls, ambience music, the atlanteans noises, those eggs that look like eyes, etc... It's pretty f*cking creepy.

Know what really makes anything scary?
Not saving everywhere every time you want or did something, that feeling of "F*** if I fall from here" or "F** if something kills me now" wihtout saving everywhere may make a lot of things to be scary.

I suffer from Vertigo and yeah, some jumps triggers it a little. It's curious because literally any other game (Mirror's Edge, Assassins Creed, Crash Bandicoot, etc) are not even close but there's something in Tomb Raider that really makes me feel them lol.

Lara movements have weight, a thing these games dont actually have as they are "too modern controls".
Lara movements are more on the lines of the first Prince of Persia game, every movement she does is "heavy and more natural" while in AA or AAA games using current "modern controls" the character look more like a robot on rails to where you point it and if you point it it just "suddenly turns there" not in a natural way.
Also Mirrors Edge and AC games you can fall from much higher without problem, here a 4 or 5 blocks tall may kill you (depend also on your health but I dont remember if it is 5 or 6 blocks that kills you regardless).

I have arachnophobia but it got better with time (Skyrim's spiders were not a problem to me in 2011).
But in 1997, that fear was in full swing.
TR2 and its spider nest in the Temple of Xian proved to be mentally exhausting...

Classic Tomb Raider games are horror games because they contain all the horror elements (sense of isolation - scary atmosphere - scary enemies - scary locations - scary music - jumpscares). Everything you expect to see in any horror game is present in these games.

The only spot I jumped was during the second level where you go into that one room and the Bear spawns and runs out the other way into that room so it can attack you from behind lol. One the first game that is.

TR II water levels god, those sharks and moray eels gave me PTSD.

In Tomb Raider 2 in the Ship Wrack, you are going through a Floor, Light is flashing and the Music starts.
You will be afraid like nothing, but the only Thing that awaits you are some Fishies you can shoot from a save Spot.

They play very good with you in that Case
