Exploring "Haunted" GMOD Maps

[@kaiserslavaniaashur1623]

I love how the brain works. Normaly you wouldn’t be so scared of the most simple things. But when you constantly remind your brain. “This is very dangerous place, there is danger here, stay on full alert and keep being on guard.” Your brain can get scared by the slightest things such as a plate moving.

[@PriestLargo.]

[@nerfboy61]

I’m with you on this one. It’s like a survival instinct that our bodies have that can help us. In these situations our reaction time becomes faster and our adrenaline goes up, so if we need to run or start fighting, that adrenaline helps us (fight or flight response)

Would have been nice if there was something that actually felt less like it’s stalking you and more like hunting you. Say, you go into the dark room and you hear footsteps from the darkness.

[@dumpstercast-refuseradio8429]

from what i can tell, the scares aren't sequenced, they're a bunch of individual thresholds like ends of hallways, doorways, specific patches of floor etc that when you cross them there's a small chance that the scary thing will happen. i also think some of the doors on the rp_downtown map are set to open and close by themselves on a random timer, i've actually heard doors operate themselves in it and gone to check to find them the opposite of how i left them i only brought up the way the scares work because i actually think the idea of a map like this with sequenced scares could be a cool idea if it was all leading up to something scarier than just seeing a silhouette really far away. it'd be even cooler if it was an all new map instead of a rehash of downtown and this feature was never actually disclosed on the workshop page

[@kiwi_2_official]

there's also a broken door which locks if you open and close it, it's next to an underground part of the map with a bridge on it and it's pretty small, so if you entered that building from that door and tried to leave via the same door, it would not work.

[@batman6621]

I love the idea of just not disclosing that the map is haunted. Imagine just making a mini zombie defence fort and you think you see a figure across the map just standing there

[@ConfettiCasket]

Theyre definitely all triggered somehow. I found a way to consistently trigger one on the downtown map. If you go to one of the doors and stare down at the blue light and move back and forth you can get him to show up. You can see it happen at 15:52 It seems to be a random chance for it to show up every time you go through the trigger.

The first map is terrifying at first, but when it happens one more time you just expect it now. I think the best way to scare the player is by just making the thing appear one time, and just never again. It makes the player try and find it even though there's nothing there to find, they keep on trying to find the thing but they'll never find it, they feel like they're being watched because of that that *thing* but even though there not being watched.

I’ve been messing around with the gm_construct haunted map. And it keeps surprising me. I always think it’s sequential or that I found all the spawns, but then the figure does something completely new. First day I got the map I kept eye balling the balcony’s on all the buildings and never saw anything. Just the usual stuff that came up in your video. So I suspected there were no figure spawns in the buildings. But just a couple days ago I was trying to get a friend on to mess with him, and while I was waiting I noticed it watching me from one of the balcony’s. Scared the shit out of me. Also the map pulls some really creepy shit with the dark room. I spawned a ton of lights in the room to make it less creepy and easier to see the figure if it spawned in. And nothing happened for a while, but then it actually despawned all of the lights and I could hear footsteps, but could never find the figure. (Obviously scared the shit out of me) After that I camped in the dark room with more lights (and like 15 alyx’s and Barney’s to keep me company) , and was able to have it happen again. It’s completely random though. It can happen between 2 minutes to an hour. Last thing that adds to the creepiness, is that after a while of exploring and finding all the spooks I could find, I just stopped and played like a usual gmod single player experience. Made npcs fight. Built things, etc. And when you play the map normally it’s really rare to notice the spooks, because you’re not actively looking for them, which adds so much more to the creepiness because it comes off like a normal map.

[@sneezer8620]

That one with the dark room is so genius. it reminds me of that Cry of Fear level in where you explore a sewer. but you hear footsteps. you don't actually see any enemies in the level and as far as I know there are none. but it is disturbing hearing the footsteps in the background while you try to find the exit. this type of scare is a very nice way to scare people in where there is really nothing.

I've been playing with these maps for a bit now, and I honestly love them. They're the perfect type of scary to me, just unnerving things that make you question whether or not you actually saw something in the distance, not cheap jumpscares that just kinda serve to annoy you after a while. I do admit that some of the timings of the ghosts need to be adjusted to avoid funny moments where you just stare at them for a few and then they "poof". I really love the random aspect of them, and how nothing's guaranteed. You could go in searching for a ghost and literally see nothing the entire time you play, or you could go in and see a ton. It's awesome!

It's really interesting how this stuff works. Like we know from watching and descriptions and stuff that there's no jumpscares or scary closeups or anything but just the idea of encountering one of the spooks is enough to completely unnerve you. And the spooks don't even do anything they're just dark models that disappear after a second, but the thought that they're there and watching and that they're perhaps just standing there in another part of the map that you can't see is beyond horrifying

It's similar to that feeling of seeing gman in the half life campaigns, there's definitely something uncanny about being in a sandbox game or map and having no control of something that can cause stress like the subtle movements of an object or person you think you saw going around a corner. As a kid I always liked to explore MW2s maps in custom games on my own and would constantly be thinking on how scary it would have been if someone else just appeared even though I knew I was on my own, or that I was being watched by something just outside my periferal view. Like at 4:25

[@batman6621]

I feel its the idea of that these maps look like they should be populated but aren't. You are the only one there. Idk if it was this guy or someone else but they made a video about fps games and how maps arent creepy but when you join a game alone they become creepy. If you have battlefield 1, join an empty server on Amiens or fort du vaux and walk around. Its kinda creepy. Something isnt right about it

[@justabox493]

I think its more the feeling of NOT being alone in such an empty but normally populated space, your mind has this idea that there must be someone here because you know there should be, and yet try as you might you cant find anyone. So when your brain trys to find people it can almost make it seem like your being watched by someone, or there are people hiding, humans are normally social creatures so its normal for your mind to try to find other people, only problem is sometimes it leans more into paranoia then strive for socialization.

[@shotgun3628]

i dont get scared by the environments any more but when i was younger it was just the openness that left me uneasy. there are so many nooks and crannies, it's like at night when you know you're alone and you know monsters aren't real, but you're still gunna close your closet door

Not exactly the same thing but this reminded me of a clip I saved from Halo 3. I messed around in Forge all the time and made a ton of maps but one time on Foundry I was placing down a container, when suddenly a live grenade flew out from under it, now if youve played Halo Forge you know that you cant throw grenades while in the editor mode, and at this point I was in the editor for well over 10 seconds so its not like I threw the grenade then switched, also, the map didn't have any grenades since it was Foundry and I used a save that completely wiped the map of any objects as a clean slate for my maps. I'm guessing I was around like 12 or so when this happened and I was messing around in Forge by myself, so it scared the absolute crap out of me and I immediately left the game, taking a good break before going into Theater mode to see what happened. It was on my File Share for the longest time and I think its still there so if I can find it Ill try sharing it so anyone can see.

You should go back and try a few of my suggestions when it comes to different scares. BTW The different locations I've seen the shade are -The mirror room (As seen here at 7:10) -The secret room (Might require V-clip) -The hall leading to the mirror room -The hall leading to the dark room -Next to the garage (Both sides standing and walking). (One seen 5:39, left side.) -The doorway that exits the area where you access the dark room and mirror room (As seen at 7:23) -In the backhalls of the garage. And that's about it, also try placing bright lights in the dark room, you'll be in for a surprise.

[@m955-q7z]

There’s another map like this , it’s a remastered version of this map that does not say anywhere that it’s haunted. I was playing on it and after about 2 hours then it started to spawn in these statues that would disappear after a half a second that would be on the tops of buildings or very far away. It also had this woman that would begin running towards the tallest tower, get to the top, and then jump off. In the darkest room a man staring at the corner with a spotlight on him would spawn in, and then disappear. If you stayed in there, a bunch of the zombies would spawn in and then catch fire, then one of them would begin sprinting to a hidden room underwater where he would stay, and would kill any player and was invincible. Scariest gmod map I’ve ever played, full of so much mystery, and riding the edge between subtle and over the top perfectly. It really freaked me out
