I hope someone can relate to when you first played Pikmin 2, and so far the game has alot of icky creatures, and what not, you reach the waterwraith, And you don't know who they are. The first thing you here is this music, which is completely different from any other music in the game so far.

Yeah, it's not retro, but even if I played this for the first time when I was 18 or so, I can relate to an extent. It was more distressing that terrifying though, that fucking thing can RUIN YOU, and Pikmin is one of those games were you get emotionally attached to stuff. You're very limited in that dungeon, it's an unconventional stage, and of course, that thing has to spawn at fucking random chase you and announce its presence with distorted hellish moans. Lovely, just lovely.

Pic related. There was a point-and-click Goosebumps game called Escape from Horrorland, but you could jump down garbage cans into a real-time dungeon. The music was ominous, there was a short draw distance to replicate darkness. You of course I had no weapons, the goal was to collect all the tokens then leave, and if you touched one of the monsters you automatically lose. It was just an optional mini-game, but it was good for fun spooks. Shit, it would be nice if someone made a hack so you can just play the dungeon segments.

I used to walk out and pass the controller to my older friends when we had to play these levels. And I played stuff like Resident Evil or Parasite Eve with them at the time and I still wasn't bothered by them as much as Gex's haunted house levels. I still don't know why I reacted so viscerally to it, maybe it's the whiplash from the cartoonish tongue-in-cheek feel of the rest of the game. I think there were some unfittingly graphic paintings on the walls too that spooked me but that probably was just my imagination acting up.

I always felt uneasy playing this when i was younger, never got too far. Played it recently and for some reason got sick and vomited, i swear its this fucking game.

Playing Pathways into Darkness. Took me a while to figure out how to move and thought the game was pretty cool. Ran into one of these fuckers (first enemy in the game), climbed under the desk and pulled the power. Didn't touch the game for years after that.

The music on the ghost levels of Super Mario Kart always made me anxious.

I also never played Clive Barker's Undying because the ghosts appearing in the mirrors in the demo were too scary. I don't think that game is technically retro, though.
