In-Hospital-able Gaming: When places of healing become places of horror

OXCGN:

"There is just something about hospital levels in games that send shivers down the spine.

Many games, from the recently released Wolfenstein, to Max Payne 2, to Brothers In Arms: Hell's Highway, to Left4Dead, make us nervous spending time in these ominous dens of sickness, madness and death.

In the gaming world hospitals are often atmospheric places where demons lurk in the basement, or gown wearing zombies charge from every corner, or mad torturing doctors await, or we are confronted by ghosts of our past.

Yet, in real life, people do indeed fear hospitals and the gown clad attendants which run them."
