Anyways. From there, the game progresses to an 'alternate' version of the school. It's definitely more ghastly and horrible, with crucified bodies in the bathrooms, etc.
The thing is, I find the slightly twisted school to be the more frightening one. It's easier to deal with the completely ghastly environment because it's almost over the top, and more clearly fantasy.
So.. is a slight perversion of a familiar environment more frightening to you, or is one that's entirely alien?

Perversion of one. Hands down.

They pose no real threat, so I just don't get scared.
Startled yeah, if something jumps out unexpectedly or something, but not scared.
*shrug*
Wish they would scare me, I like that little adrenline rush.
It's everything Stephen King used to be.

I can deal with the "AAAH!" scaryness. And the "ew" scaryness. But the above... mlegh.
I've found myself chanting weird little mantras when I go upstairs to bed sometimes to ward off the scaries. I am the angel of death and nothing can hurt me...
Or maybe I need sleep. Yes. Sleep.
The atmosphere, music, and effects are serious shit-your-pants material, especially that f***ing pipe.
It sounds like an awesome mindfuck game. And thus an awesome game.

Fucking pipe. Full pulse rifle clip.
It's part of what made RE2 so scary for me. And yes, I'm a wimp, these games scare me. But yeah. The second scenerio sounds pretty cool too, just for the imagery you put forth--the crucified bodies, and whatnot...it sounds worth seeing, and stuff.
Yeah.
On another note, I've still yet to be entertained by any of these "survival horror" games. Dunno why, they were just never that fun to me. :/
The thing that scares me most is those huge-ass Wels in Xenogears, with the skeletal hands. The ones that can take all your HP in one attack. Those creep the hell outta me. Part of it is where you fight them, in a sewer system and in a Wels-infested transport ship. Places that aren't real, but could be. That kind of thing.

AVP2 Marine Missions are the only game area that truly scare me.The atmosphere, music, and effects are serious shit-your-pants material, especially that f***ing pipe.
Oh yeah, AvP was always so good at that 
I always enjoyed the Skirmishes as a marine
You wouldn't think something so simple as a radar couldn;'t creep the hell out of you, but it does, heh
