[[Bio ShockBioshock]] has plenty to offer every fear. If you're afraid of the dark, people sneaking up on you, babbling madness, disfigurement, creepy monotone children, dystopian society, or even BEES, then this game has something in store for you. And it usually also involves heavy use of shadows and environmental noises.

Line 21:
*** "I observe all his commandments...I observe all his commandments...I OBSERVE ALL HIS COMMANDMENTS! * starts sobbing* I OBSERVE ALL HIS COMMANDMENTS! HIS COMMANDMENTS!
** Oh God, Dr. Grossman, oh God. "I don't want to ''hurt'' you, I just want to see what's ''inside!''"
* Enemies reflect damage they've taken, which means if you tend to use the [[Kill It Withwith Fire|fire plasmid]], all the dead splicers are grotesquely burned.
* There's one infamous encounter in the dentist's office, in the Medical Pavilion. In the dentist's office, you break a window, destroy a turret, and walk towards the dentist's chair. Suddenly, a thick white fog appears, you can hear someone running nearby and a THUD sound, and when your vision clears there's a corpse sitting in the previously empty chair. Just past it there's a table with goodies on it. When you get there, the fog starts up again. When it clears, you pick up the goodies, turn around, and there's a doctor ''right in your face.''

* Having to use those oh-so-sterile needles. Bonus for getting fear of needles and fear of disease at the same time.
** [[Fridge Horror]] sets in when you find one of Sinclair's audio diaries in ''[[Bio ShockBioshock]] II''. All of his EVE needles were made by junkies for a dime each. Then he sold them for a dollar each to Ryan...
* Try waking up in a Vita Chamber, miles from the actual fight, and finding a Splicer right in front of it. The Splicer said, "Do you know what we do to Judases!?"
* Just coming out of a regeneration tube once. Suddenly, it all goes black. Even your powers don't give light. Suddenly, there's a red spot-light that you instinctively run to. You can hear ''them'' crawling in the shadows. Splicers. You don't know how many or what kind. They're just moving around, waiting, watching, talking in their own incoherent ramblings. Occasionally, one skirts the edge of the spotlight, flashing a leg or a claw. You can shoot randomly into the darkness, but there's no guarantee it'll hit. And then, when they finally decide to move, they move en masse. And all you can do is run...
