    Okay kid, I'm sure you mean well, and it's natural to have a lot of enthusiasm about this cool game you've just discovered, but you should reign it in. At this moment, five of the top seven threads of the Ideas and Suggestions subforum are from you. Three of those (including this one!) are all suggestions for the same exact thing. This is called spamming, and it's generally frowned upon.

    As for why your ideas are not getting the rave reviews you seem to be chasing, it's important to note that content, especially vehicles but also levels and complex scenarios, take quite a lot of time and effort to make. It's fine to express ideas and bounce them off of the community for feedback, but if you're overly specific (which you are being), are asking for something niche (which you are doing), have an active misunderstanding of the time investment of projects like this (which you seem to possess), and/or spam your idea over and over (which you have done), you come across as demanding rather than just enthusiastic.

    Lastly, I have to say that of all the even highly tangential things I'd love to see in BeamNG, jumpscares aren't one of them. It's the low-hanging fruit of horror even in first/third person games where you're not carefully controlling a vehicle at speed. Getting instakilled by a screaming png blocking the screen and leading me to wrap my car around a tree doesn't sound like a tense, pulse-pounding challenge. It sounds like a headache-inducing nuisance made for the sensory excesses of the streamer age.

    If it's something you want to experience in-game, there's no shame in liking the idea. But if you ever intend to experience it, you'll either need to learn how to make it yourself, contract someone to do it for you, or find someone with the requisite skills who's willing to do it for free.

    TLDR: we do hear you. We're just not smitten.

    Okay I'm sorry for the spamming . I just wanted a horror mod that's all and nothing else.
