Spoilers, obviously.

Let's try and make a list of stuff that changes in the game either just to mess with your head, or when your sanity is lower.

Here's the stuff I remember:

• Body in the Transept, in one of the hanging cages appears and disappears
  
• Painting in the Transept of Alexander turns into the same painting with a horrible disfigured face
  
• Painted bodies hang from the ceiling in the choir entrance with low sanity
  
• The rocks in the wine cellar are first sealed shut, then later appear smashed open
  
• Water monster apparition in the Sewers
  

What else can you guys remember?

Normal paintings change too, the people in them are replaced by skeleton figures. You have to look closely.

Well, when in the cistern with low sanity. I was going to leave and then that fleshy stuff appeared and blocked my path so I had to go around. My friend played through the same area and that didn't happen for him.

Really? I thought they just appeared after you went through the cutscene (pun seen, now intentional). Needless to say, it's really freaky when you go into the room from an empty corridor and you leave into a corridor full of bodies. Were they there the whole time and you just blocked them out? Was somebody busy while you were reading the note?

And then when you return, they're gone.

That freaked me the fuck out :O

Especially when they didn't appear in my 2nd playthrough :|

The fountaing thingy with the baby face, the water becomes red,and there is a corpse there.

Huh, I didn't notice this, just being immersed in the gameplay and all. Interesting, I'll have to look out for these changes when I play through for the commentary.

I noticed things changing, and it freaked me out, but I had no idea that sanity determined a lot of this, that's absolutely brilliant.

Lets not forget the insects!

Bugs crawling on the screen and I believe in the later parts of the game you find giant spiders on the walls with low sanity.
