Oh fuck me, Robbing the Cradle was spooky as fuck.
Comment on Thief 1 & 2, the grandfather of the stealth genre

Not about thief 1 or 2, but a fun piece of Thief trivia is that Thief: Deadly Shadows (the third game in the franchise, from 2004), completely unexpectedly, has a level that routinely makes “scariest levels in video games” lists, despite Thief not being a horror game.

Oh yes, that level is still in my memories after more than a decade. And for good reason. I will make a post about Thief 3 in the future if nobody else does it first.

I remember almost nothing else about that game, but I remember that level vividly; it kept me awake the night after I played it. It was a complete non-sequitur in the context of the rest of the game, but holy shit, did it ever accomplish what they set out to do.
