Hey everyone,
Sorry for the long time between updates. Holidays and all tend to do that to development, specially when you’re on vacation. Anyways I’m back and working on Rebirth again for the past week. I’m working hard to get another dev diary’s worth of material ready again, this time I’m going to try my hardest to get you guys an inside look at some of the mechanics I’m building for horror. Right now I’m mostly building tools so level designers (me right now, heh) can create horror scenarios on their own without custom coding on my end.
The aim is create a nice little “horror house” that we can use to test-drive some of the horror elements in the game.
In the meantime here’s the real reason for this post.
I want to make your nightmares a reality.
I’m a jaded horror fan, it’s hard to scare myself. So I want to know what’s inside your twisted heads so I can put it ingame!
Tell me everything, monsters, scenarios, sounds, visuals… what scares you? Have movies to recommend? Inspiration? Websites to scare the living crap out of me?
Leave a comment, or put it on our forums!
what scares me the most is a little pale girl with long black hair staring at you in a window from a house

slender man maybe ?
what scares me the most is a serial killer that escaped from a recorection facility and you are in the middle of a zombie apoc with your hurt wife…
So here’s a nightmare for you; I’m walking down a long hallway, there’s a war or something going on outside, bombs going off, people screaming, the whole mess. The worst part? There are people in the hallway; doctors, patients, nurses, and they’re just…standing there.
As I’m walking past them (I’m trying to get out of the hospital and back to the streets) they whip their heads at me, the sounds of bones cracking, and they stare, stare at me with burnt-out eye-sockets, eyeless. Every last one of them. And they groan.
I run and run, and they follow, slowly, lurching towards me, or past me, to the war outside.
That’ll be one I remember for decades, here’s another.
It’s night, I’m out on the road in the middle of a forest don’t know why, naturally, just walking there. There’s this unholy green fog that stops about knee-level, and up ahead the silhouette of an SUV underneath an orange streetlight.
I can hear clicking in the woods around me, a noise close to a thousand switches being flipped in quick succession.
Of course, I keep going to the SUV and I get close enough to see that the driver’s side door is open and the noise is going off, “bong bong bong bong”. I carefully approach and the wind blows, interrupting the clicking noise, but as I reach the driver’s side to close the door or get the keys, I don’t know what my goal was, everything goes silent.
There’s a clack-croaking behind me, like someone being choked. I notice kid’s stuff in the backseat.
The croaking gets louder.
I turn and there it is, the little girl who the stuff belonged to, but she’s blue and her head hangs weird. Her eyes are black and some dark liquid is running down her mouth.
Would’ve pissed my bed on that one if I didn’t wake up.
Imo good film is “28 days later” with speed like player zombies
zombie will by more danger and player must work with other players 
or… in day zombie will by slow etc but in nigth they will take some speed 
maybe zombie will see fire and hear voices and steps ? but when players will crouch they dont hear it ?
Hey you guys my name is steve and I would like to contribute to the project. I hope to be apart. I am a 3d character artist and I can rig. I also use blender. Right now I don’t have a portfolio but I can show you some of the stuff I’ve done. Please let me know if I can be apart.
personly I love left for dead 2 the game.
What scared me the most was the Stars Monster guy from the old resident evil game on playstation 1. It had me scared to turn of my playstation and I ran.
creepy childrens laughter all you would need is a smaller “zombie” model maybe shrink the ones you already have if possible. make them come out at night only. and when they are chasing or looking for have a varied sound for them say when they are looking for you after loosing sight of the character they are singing in a creepy voice. when they chase you they have a shrill scream. and before they spot you all you hear is their laughter.
once i had a dream where some city opened the beautiful garden everybody loved it kid were running in the pathways but there some monster who killed kids so garden was closed.
