History Main / EatenAlive

* ''WebAnimation/HappyTreeFriends'': In the episode "From A to Zoo", Petunia falls into a snake pit and gets swallowed whole. Eventually, Lumpy tries to save her, but he gets eaten as well. He breaks free with a spoon, but not before Petunia is already half-digested.

* ''[=NecroMerger=]'': You can inflict this fate to virtually nearly everything and everyone in your lair by simply dragging them to the mouth of The Devouerer, a giant Cthulhu-like creature that the titular protagonist raises to someday [[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt devour the whole world.]] In fact, the only thing it ''won't'' eat is [[ObviousRulePatch the NecroMerger themselves]]:

* ''[=NecroMerger=]'': You can inflict this fate to virtually nearly everything and everyone in your lair by simply dragging them to the mouth of The Devouerer, a giant Cthulhu-like creature that the titular protagonist raises to someday [[TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt devour the whole world.]] In fact, the only thing it *won't* eat is [[ObviousRulePatch the NecroMerger themselves]]:

* ''Literature/BofuriIDontWantToGetHurtSoIllMaxOutMyDefense'': Maple will often get swallowed whole by monsters. As her [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin defense is to high]] this doesn't harm her and she starts eating the monsters from the inside. This happened so much that the devs stopped giving the monsters stomachs, causing her to get caught in the mouths. She still has fun with it.

* In the video for the song Miserable by Lit, the band is playing on the body of a giant woman. The video is speculated by people to be a metaphor for the term “maneater.”

* Ginary has many videos featuring people eating and getting eaten alive. One video titled “The Meg” shows Megan Jones swallowing Kitty Quinn and Anastasia Rose whole and alive in a pool. Another video of hers shows Amanda Bryant swallowing Nikki Brooks whole after she ate her date.

* In the video for Music/{{Lit}}'s "Music/{{Miserable}}", the band members are playing all over the body of a gigantic Creator/PamelaAnderson in a white bikini. At first things seem to be fine, until one of the guitarists who were standing on her lips falls into her mouth and she eats him. Pamela then proceeds to chase after all the other band members and one by one each of them gets devoured by her. Some people speculate that this was supposed to mean that she's a [[LiteralManeater "man-eater"]].

* In the ''Podcast/AliceIsntDead'' episode "Omelet", hapless trucker Earl suffers this fate as a lesson in HumanoidAbomination the Thistle Man's sense of humor. [[spoiler:He bites off Earl's flesh at the site of an artery, and keeps digging more out from the wound to eat, in a rote, automatic manner as poor Earl bleeds out.]] Making matters worse is the series's CharacterNarrator's realization that there's no element of biological necessity in this. The Thistle Man is simply [[AndShowItToYou showing off]] for her, as a "demonstration".
* [[OurGhoulsAreCreepier Riley]] from ''Podcast/LessIsMorgue'' has a nasty habit of doing this to people, on account of their [[BigEater huge appetite]] and impulsive nature. They eat Jon the Pizza Man alive in "[[Recap/LessIsMorgueS1E1PizzaTime Pizza Time]]", and [[FriendlyZombie Brains Vincent]] in "[[Recap/LessIsMorgueS1E2BeOurGuest Be Our Guest]]".

* In ''Roleplay/TheGamersAlliance'', [[AssholeVictim Brak]], a ruthless demon warrior, ends up eaten by hungry adolescent demons in Alent's [[TheCityNarrows Threshold district]].

* ''TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons'' has plenty of monsters with the Swallow Whole ability, as well as swarms of creatures that attack by taking countless little bites out of their prey, but one creature takes this trope to a horrifying extreme. The Vaath is a insect/lizard hybrid monster from the Lower Planes, with a bite that injects a paralyzing venom into its prey. Then the Vaath uses its maw-tipped feeding tendril to burrow into its helpless victim's body, and the fiendish predator is sadistic enough to make sure its prey is alive when the Vaath begins to consume its organs. Worse, the Vaath is telepathic, and not only broadcasts its enjoyment of the meal to anything in range, but also the exact flavor and texture of the victim's innards. And no one, not even the most vile of souls from a cannibalistic culture, is immune to the horror of learning what one's own intestines taste like.
* ''TabletopGame/RuneQuest'' has probably one of the strangest and most metaphysical examples of the trope in history. In the mythology of Glorantha Kajabor, the God of Entropy had been killed and was threatening to destroy the dead gods who were defending Hell from his onslaught, when the benevolent spider goddess ''Arachne Solara'' ate him alive and soon after gave birth to Time.

** This trope is one of the very few things Orks genuinely fear. During the Third War for Armageddon, seeing the Flesh Tearers SpaceMarines fall prey to their bloodlust and start devouring their enemies had the almost unprecedented effect of shattering the Orks' morale so thoroughly that they fled the battlefield.

* At the end of ''VideoGame/{{Anatomy}}'', [[spoiler:the basement that the player is in slowly grows a mouth with teeth, as the tape recorder describes how they had interfered with the house and will be devoured]].
* The final boss of ''VideoGame/{{Boktai}} 2: Solar Boy Django'' has an attack where he grabs you in his mouth and chews, steadily depleting your health. If you don't quickly escape, however, he'll soon swallow, resulting in an instant GameOver regardless of your remaining health.

* In ''VideoGame/{{Catherine}}'', this is how [[spoiler:Steve Delhomme]] meets his end in the nightmares, being eaten by [[spoiler:Shadow of Vincent]].

* ''VideoGame/DarkSouls'' has several enemies that can do this to you. Most horrifically is the [[MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily Gaping Dragon]].

* The [[spoiler:KillerRabbit]] of ''VideoGame/DragonsCrown'' will constantly attempt to eat your party throughout its battle. It even has an attack where it chomps off a large chunk of its targets' heads as a OneHitKill when it TurnsRed. The Treasure Art for killing it solo naturally shows a group of knights getting devoured [[spoiler:by a horde of Killer Rabbits]].
* In the Creator/DonBluth animated games ''VideoGame/DragonsLair'', ''Dragon's Lair II: Time Warp'', and ''VideoGame/SpaceAce'', numerous death scenes show the player character -- Dirk or Ace -- either being eaten alive or the eater preparing to do so.

* In ''VideoGame/{{Kenshi}}'', if your character is knocked out by Fogmen or cannibals, they will often carry you to a post or cage, and at some point will start to eat you one limb at a time if you fail to escape in time. Some creatures, such as Beak Things, will also start devouring you if they defeat you.
* In ''VideoGame/Kindergarten2'', Lily and Billy are hiding out beneath their new school to investigate its dark secrets. In the mission "Breaking Sad", you need to collect a hair sample from Billy, but he refuses to give you one. When you come back later to try again, you find Billy's decapitated corpse and [[spoiler:one of the principal's mutant monsters]] eating a squirming Lily's head.

* PlayedForLaughs and combined with MoodWhiplash in ''VideoGame/PuyoPuyoFever2'', where [[spoiler:the otherwise happy farewell between Sig and the Ocean Prince]] is interrupted when the latter character is suddenly eaten whole by a whale. Sig's only reaction is an emotionless "oops".

* In ''[[VideoGame/SacrificeGirl Sacrifice Girl: The Curse of Demon Snake]]'', [[TheManyDeathsOfYou one of the ways that you can die]] is by being eaten by one of the titular demon snakes.
* In ''VideoGame/SpongebobSquarepantsCreatureFromTheKrustyKrab'', [=SpongeBob=] gets eaten by a giant Alaskan Bullworm, in which he spends the entire chapter building a biplane along with Old Man Jenkins so he can escape.

** In the original ''Film/JurassicPark'', several humans get eaten by dinosaurs, and all of the others keep getting threatened to get eaten:
