darkness, though we truly fear the unknown which lurks inside the darkness
rather than the darkness itself. It stands to reason, then, that the most
frightening villain of all is one that we cannot see, and that is truly the

direct result of the effect of The Shadow on both the character and the player.
Why is this villain so terrifying? Read on to find out.
