Leaving Silent Hill and Fetal Frame series out and strictly talking of adventure games then I would says:
1. The Lost Crown
2. Darkness Within
3. Scratches
4. Dracula Series
(above are not placed in rating ... though Lost Crown tops the other 3)
What makes game horror/dark is the environment. Darkness Within, Dracula series and Scratches provide a great environment and they are scary (especially for a person easily scared, like me) but there is nothing unique about them. The Lost Crown is quite a unique and different experience. I never knew one can pull off a horror game in a 3rd person view. Hats of to JB!
