The Oubliette is a mod for Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion with generally good horror-setting style environments and good use of eerie and startling sound effects.

After some hard fights against dangerous pumpkin-headed adversaries in a gory subterranean complex, a door magically takes you outside to woods and a fortress. The default weather was light fog, hard rain, and random strokes of deadly lightning, all of which severely affected game speed and performance. Here also are some interesting environments, such as a rotating tunnel.

The Oubliette is a mod for Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion . "Solitary" is one of the smallest rooms in the mod. It contains just a few goblin prisoners, implausibly alive after all this time.

The Oubliette is a mod for Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion . The Lost Ayleid Chambers is one of the smaller locations in The Oubliette. This very dark area has one of the best entrances -- It is pitch dark when you first enter, and there's a classic horror surprise for you when you "turn on the lights" using whatever light source or ability you may have.

The Oubliette is a mod for Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion . "Resting Room" starts out deceptively peaceful and untainted by the horror everywhere else, which should be a clue that all is not what it seems. Ultimately, however, it does become one of the few places where one can safely rest.

The Oubliette is a mod for Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion . The eighth door leading from the main chamber of The Oubliette leads to areas themed after some of the evil Daedric Lords/Princes .

The Oubliette is a mod for Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion . The "Tomb of Unrest" area has a few small rooms, all of which the player must pass through. Each room tries to emphasize various fearful situations. One of the most effective is landing in a cell with just one lockpick (if the player had any to begin with) and one chance only to successfully pick a difficult lock or be stuck "forever" in an abandoned jail (to the extent possible in a game where you can simply reload and try again)..

The Oubliette is a mod for Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion . The fifth door from the main chamber of The Oubliette leads to "Erehwon" (Nowhere). This irritating area is a small maze made difficult by not allowing mapping, trees that obscure vision, and some deadly traps that can require quick thinking.

The Oubliette is a mod for Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion . The area called "Crossing Halls" feels sadly under-developed: At some point we have to pick up someone's life force in order to reveal an exit, but this sequence somehow lacks depth or emotional impact to make it much different from taking a key out of a cupboard.

The Oubliette is a mod for Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion . The horror in Death's Domain is not being able to find a way out. Others have tried and continue in death to futilely try as mindless zombies. We also meet Death and are offered a bargain, but its effects are sadly unclear.
