Yes, that scene in Shadowgate was incredibly painful and difficult and scary to read. Especially seeing Lief so changed by the mask. Any sort of mental brainwashing-type stuff creeps me out, so that scene really affected me. But I think that the scariest part of the novel was the climax, with the snakes attacking Kirsten of Shadowgate. In fact, the whole book was a load of nightmare fuel, and I will always consider it the creepiest book in DQ3.
