It goes without saying that adding that adding retired WWF (WWE) legend Macho Man Randy Savage to a game shouldn't make it terrifying. The Slim Jim snappin' wrestler was a popular figure with fans worldwide, and his colorful personality made him fun to watch on television. However, nothing could prepare us for what would happen if somebody replaced the dragons of Skyrim with Randy Savage. The way the theme music just subtly creeps in, the way the Randy Dragon's neck just seems to bend, everything combines for a traumatic experience that would fill the pants of the most stoic amongst us.

This is it. When bad people die, they go into this game modification and are forced to live it out forever. The second Skyrim modification on our list takes a classic and nostalgic childhood symbol, the lovable Thomas The Tank Engine, and makes the toot-tooting educational symbol a horrifying, fire-breathing murderer. It's not this blatant attack on our childhood memories that makes it horrifying, it's the steadfast unblinking eyes and unwavering smile that make Thomas The Tank Engine one of the most horrifying things we've ever seen.
