One of them would shank you, wouldn't they? The butler? I'm struggling to remember the exact specifics, I just remember someone would kill you.
Yeah, if you walked in to the dining room the butler would cut your head off. If you walked out to the backyard the dog would tear you up.
I never played horror games when I was a kid, but Dead Space and Amnesia: The Dark Descent were the two games that really solidified what I wanted out of a horror game. Having the ability to defend yourself instead of running is still something that makes or breaks a horror game for me.
Dead Space still scares the hell out of me.
Thief, the dark project + my brand new EAX 4 speaker surround system... hoooly shit
Not sure it counts, but I played a loooot of Killing Floor in my early teens.

Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly
The old Japanese village scene with the super dark graveyard area. Somehow the image still stuck hard in my head.
Shivers - that game absolutely nailed the atmosphere, and for the players that don't know the ixupi hotspots and the game's tricks, it's genuinely terrifying. I'd say give it a look, on GoG you could do worse for six bucks.
Master of Darkness on the Sega Master System. The soundtrack was haunting.
One of two. Ghosts and Ghouls on snes, I was like 4 but wasn't scared. And the other one is not a horror game but for 6 year old me it was scary as shit, Halo CE. The Library level and the one before, 343 Guilty Spark, were hell for me. Beating those levels was a goddamn relief.
