    Also, here's a fun fact. Nintendo has patented the sanity effects, which is why other games that have sanity meters are simply limited to just the screen distorting and odd noises. You won't have any fourth wall breaking. Also, I literally freaked out when the game faked wiping my save from the memory card.
    The only other game that came close to matching the sanity effects in this game was when you encounter scarecrow for the first time in Arkham Asylum. Remember that part when the screen glitches out? Yea, I thought my graphics card overheated and wound up hard resetting my PC. I did a clean install of all my drivers and replayed the area. It happened again, I thought my GPU was toast. I had to look it up online and found it was party of the game.

    The most terrifying aspect of any medium is the unknowable. To lose that mystique is to lose all.
    You step into your kitchen. Pitch black. Freezing cold. As you slowly step forward, you suddenly become aware of a nearly imperceptible hum of something unknown. You reach for a light. The hum stops. It is just you. The darkness. The room. So quiet. You can hear your own heart beat. Is that your heart beat? A bead of sweat tickles the back of your neck. You reach around to wipe it away. Your hand finds something cold. Hard. Sharp. Trembling. then nothing.
    Flash! The light turns on. You spin around to see...nothing. No ones there. Nothing's there. You are surrounded by the familiar trappings. The off-white countertop. The dual door fridge. Everything you expect to see. In it's rightful place. You breath a sigh of relief. Stepping over your own still bleeding body, you go to bed, ready to be rid of this nightmare.
