I had played other horror games before it but the first one I became obsessed with was Resident Evil 4. I think I mostly just enjoy survival horror type games for the challenge, because other horror games have never really held much of an interest to me unless they have some kind of survival aspect.

Hugo's House of Horrors.
The dog and the butler (chef?) terrified me.
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.
What do you mean by formative horror? A horror game that had ultimately planted your interest in the horror genre?

Silent Hill 2 on ps2

Master of Darkness on the Sega Master System. The soundtrack was haunting.
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.
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.
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.
Thief, the dark project + my brand new EAX 4 speaker surround system... hoooly shit
