Give Control a shot, it's one of my favourites games for ages due its story and whilst it's creepy, it's not really horror exactly and it is much more action oriented. I don't recall any jump scares either, though it has been a while.

Last time I had free time and was looking for a new game someone told me "Get Control. Just get it. Trust me."

My trust was not misplaced. It's one of the best games I've ever played.

Edit: Later I tried AW1 and didn't really care for it much (mostly because i sucked really bad at it) until I started using "all guns" cheats so I could play it like a horror/action. Then I enjoyed it.

I recall having occasional one-frame flashes of the antagonist whenever they were being mentioned
