When I’m jump scared by Baker or Taxidermist I don’t feel like I’m in danger I feel like they’re saying “Get off my lawn!” Like a comedic old man, So I have a suggestion to make the jump scare more menacing.
Taxidermist: have the Taxidermist actually punch the player.
Baker: get rid of the end of her jump scare animation where she breathes in and puts her hand on your face, just have the beginning part of the animation and have her make a angry face at you and it fades to black.
This would make them more intimidating and scary.
