Exploring all 120 star systems in Starfield will undoubtedly lead to weird and spooky encounters. From terrifying creatures to ghostly abandoned locations, Starfield has all the makings of a horror game.
A recent Reddit thread asked the players to share their space encounters that made them want to quickly “nope” out of a location or planet, and what these fans share is both chilling and fascinating.
Initially posted by u/PotatoEatingHistory, they asked the community what made them quickly nope out of Starfield. They shared that encountering the eerie and mysterious ship of The Pale Lady made them leave the spaceship alone.

The Pale Lady is a random encounter that players can encounter as they travel through the Settled Systems. It involves a derelict ship with meager HP. As players approach this ship, they will hear radio static and the cackling laughter of an old lady. It is then up to the players whether they want to continue investigating this haunted ship.
The monstrous Terrormorph comes in a close second, with multiple thread replies mentioning their fear of the sinister creature. Terrormorphs are the dragon equivalent of Skyrim, resilient and strong predators. High-level Terrormorphs can release pheromones that induce hallucinations in their prey. It is a creature that new players should avoid contact with.
Some players also mention that encountering invisible monsters, such as hunting Coralcrabs, can give quite a scare. It is best to be prepared and adequately equipped for such encounters.
These stories from the Starfield community showcase the depth and creativity that Bethesda has poured into the game, making it not just an adventure through space but a journey filled with the unknown and the uncanny.
Whether it's the eerie Pale Lady, spooky outposts, or the psychotic Terrormorphs, Starfield proves that the final frontier is as terrifying as it is fascinating.
