The Dead Hand from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Despite not being an actual hand Dead Hand is still terrifying just from its design as well as when battling the creature inside a tiny arena with countless hands that will try to grab you and unfortunately the only way to draw out Dead Hand is to let the hands grab a hold of you as it rises from the ground as it slowly moves towards you.
