Ohh, I know this one! There is a part where a character is stuck and your have to get him unstuck by scaring him by selecting "scary" parts of sentences like: "Oh, no!" "Look behind you!" "A delicious cake!".
But to be fair, it did have some scary skulls falling down a staircase and a labyrinth at the end. What were you scared of?
I was like 4 or 5 and I was basically spooked every time they gave you a timer. Which once I found out that the whole game was timed got me proper spooked. At least that's what my mom tells me, I don't actually remember it that well. I remember the colour-fill-tool ghosts being a little spooky, I remember there being a scene where you have to play a xylophone (?) that was also spooky. OH and the ticking clock sound that gets louder when you're in certain parts of the house.
Oh yeah, the clock sound was probably the most spooky part. I still find Deadlines scary today.
