Oh, almost forgot, one of my other favorite moments is when Ogden is telling the story about his sign getting stolen and horrific noises outside his window. Really helped to set the mood, ya know?
Heh, the thing about Zhar the Mad that freaked me out the first time I encountered him was his disposition. Let me elaborate, when you first go in the room he says:
"What?! Why are you here? All these interruptions are enough to make one insane. *GIGGLE* Here, take this and leave me to my work, trouble me no more!"
I thought, "Hey, not bad, a guy who is willing to let me off despite his evil garb!" Then I decided out of curiousity that because he didn't seem to want to kill me that, "Oh look! A bookcase!". Poop.
"Arrrgh! Your curiousity will be the death of you!"
I will never forget the first time I encountered The Butcher. I was at my friend's house and he had just gotten Diablo. We were in his kitchen where his computer was set up and I opened that door. Silence, until finally, "Ahh, fresh meat!" I jumped out of my skin and bashed my knee on his sliding keyboard shelf. He started cracking up. It was funny, and I was also 10 at the time so besides Shivers it was one of the only truly frightening games I remember playing - until Silent Hill, but that is another story altogether. *shudders*
