Rabadi: thanks, I'll check out Penumbra. And yeah, I saw some the other threads, which is why I emphasized scary because some games like Monster Bash aren't scary, but are technically horror.
Scarecrow/ Icewolf: thanks, I haven't heard of any of these
atasha: I played Phantasmagoria on XP without much trouble if I remember. I didn't do anything very elaborate, I just remember that only one method worked. I think I did it via DosBOX and used Alcohol 120% to switch ISO images. Just make sure you have autorun disabled in Windows, I think the autoplay might have locked up my system until I forcefully shut it down. I don't remember this stuff exactly, but if you want real hell try getting Phantasmagoria 2 to run in XP. I CANNOT do it, I've tried everything short of VMware. If you can get that working, I'll go back and give you detailed step-by-step instructions how to run 1 in XP.
Mighty Midget: Yeah, I've actually played Gabriel Knight 1-2, but they didn't strike me as scary, I guess I'm too desensitized.
