My vote is monk from age of empires 2. These dudes can walk up and stare at your friend chanting for a bit, then suddenly they turn around and attack you. That's horrifying.

Dark Templar from StarCraft. Just going about your business then suddenly you're sliced in half.

A Ghost dropping a nuke is pretty scary but not much different from the real life possibility of dying from a mile you didn't know was coming. Just not from an invisible person.

Being infested by the zerg would be pretty terrifying too. Not really a specific unit though, I don't think. Haven't played in quite a while.
