You know what I loved best? The entrance. With all the torches and the huge circle of Hylian incantations written on the ground? I loved that place~ It was so mysterious, and quiet too - all you could hear was the rain outside. It looked like someone insanely dedicated to the Shadow Temple had made that to guard the people from it. Or someone who had seen the horrors inside and wanted to seal it all away, mentally broken by what they had witnessed...
(door slams shut with spikes) ohh boy another mini-boss....whopptie fuckin doo...whats it gonna be? another dark link? another skulfos? (see's white hands) oh god no....it....it cant be.....NOOO! (grabs links head and monster comes out) NOOOO IM SORRY!! I DIDNT MEAN TO KILL YOU YEARS AGO WHEN I WAS A CHILD!! DX
I somehow glitched to this temple on accident... As an adult it was my second temple i beat... As soon as i walked in and throughout the temple this song sent tickly chills down my neck. Wasnt hard to beat tho =}
i found this temple scary too... i was like 7 years or something... when i first heard this music when i entered this temple.. i didn't want to move hahaha
...just slowly hahahahahha i remember that so well hahaha
I started a game again and it was about 8:00 when I got to the temple but the next day I think it was and all of a sudden redeads on me and frekin the living soul out of me....LITERALY!
I remember the time I got excited for nothing. Me: YESS!! I FINALLY BEAT THIS SCARY ASS TEMPLE!!! Only to find I had only gotten through half of that god-forsaken place.
ah wow. this rlly takes me back... itz late @nite & so I cant listen to this, STILL LoL & I been playn since '98 ... this music freaks me out too bad, that's a scary friggn area..
I'm at this point in the game. I finally managed to beat some temples by myself (I already beat Water ages ago), but this temple and the damned well I'm too scared to go in. And I'm 25. D: I am a pretty big chicken though.. but I used to have nightmares from the re-deads as a kid when other people played it.
Gosh i remember playing this back in 98 when i was about 10. I've played some other Zelda games on the Wii and DS but thought that this one, given its time, was the best. Too bad they never made a soundtrack cd for this, it would've been great. Although my favorite piece is Kakariko Village, this one definitely suits the shadow temple
The two things that creeps me out in the dungeon are - REDEADS And Floormasters. Well, Wallmasters also. I HATE Wallmasters the most though. To this day, they creep me out Lol
when I was little I never wanted to enter the temple at night. When it was like 10 pm I was scared to play zelda. But honestly some things are far to creepy for kids especially the shadow temple. The grim reaper when you go farther into the temple is fuckin creepy haha.
btw eminem should have sampled this song for relapse!
This is my favorite temple, due to the fact that it was creepy enough to make you want to leave, but bearable enough to where i dont get fucking nightmares for a week.
the thing that sounds like screaming or moaning is often used x_x everytime i hear something like that i have to think of this temple :) i don't quite remeber the temple though, for me it was a really easy one accept the fact that it was a little creepy, though this made it easy to get through with it :D you had the urge to get out of there haha
i stopped playing oot for a while cuz i was scared of this temple (actually my controller was confiscated) but i over came the fear and went in. when navi told me about the wallmasters (she's useful someimes) i quickly saved and quit. wallmasters and floormasters are creepy, but dead hands, gibdos, and redeads aren't. one beamos is scary, but five wolfos aren't. i was more scared of the forest temple than the shadow temple. and forest temple music was nagging me, just like city in the sky music.
Favourite temple for sure. They could've done a little bit better on the music, though. It sounds more like random scary sounds mixed up together. They could've done a melody like The Forest Temple and mixed that up with those sounds, then it would've been more like music. But the temple itself is great, I love everything about it. The traps and everything. Except the one and only thing... Redeads.
@TehMikstPinoy lolz i loved this temple.... i love to get creeped out... especially because i can easily let someone else shit their pants hahaha u gotta try that :D
on my first playthrough it took me about 6 hours, that was 4 years ago, my second playthrough was last year and it took me about 2 days.....i know it has a scary atmosphere but its really not that scary imo :)
........I remember, my first time here. all I could think of was, I want to get the fuck out of here ASAP. *shudders* damn it this place always freaked me out.
when I graduate from UCLA I am going to replay Zelda and Majora's Mask. I am going to play video games every evening with a beer in my hand. Only 2 more years left.
This dungeon is a masterpiece within a masterpiece itself. This game (to this very day) remains my favorite game of all time. The sense of adventure it brought my brothers and me, along with flawless game play, (at the time) impressive graphics, and the overwhelming creativity and genius incorporated into the game itself.. I think it's safe to say Zelda was the staple of my childhood as far as video games go, lol.
been awhile but isn't this the same music that plays beneath the well? it may not be an official dungeon but i fucking hated beneath the well. The creepy music plus randomly falling through floors and going through walls and wallmasters and random enemies and fucking dead hand...need i say more? Shadow Temple was no different, but was easier to get through. I love this music now, however
HAHA I was not scared by this place, or this music, your all so wimpy XD. Actually it was favorite temple, I got scared, once, when the giant hand came out of no where and grabbed me XP.
i remember when i was little and i always told my big brother to play this part of the game for me. i had nightmares about this when i first played it
You know what I loved best? The entrance. With all the torches and the huge circle of Hylian incantations written on the ground? I loved that place~ It was so mysterious, and quiet too - all you could hear was the rain outside.
