YES! The haunted hotel is hands down one of my all-time favorite moments in gaming. Even with the game's primitive (by modern standards) graphics, I don't think I've ever played through a scarier experience. I think the only thing that comes close was my first few hours playing The Forest.
Ocean House Hotel really is a phenomenally well designed level. Pretty sure it was given an award of some kind for level design back in the day. Excellent combination of mood, tension and atmosphere with well timed jump scares. I imagine it still would be pretty spooky even for players accustomed to newer games, but back in the day it really was unbelievably scary the first time through.
I first picked up that game maybe 5 years ago, so I can assure you that Ocean House was plenty scary even in a modern-ish context.
