** There's also the Series Three episode [[Recap/BuffyTheVampireSlayerS3E4BeautyAndTheBeasts "Beauty and the Beasts"]], which features a high school student drinking a chemical potion that turn him into a literal monster who abuses his girlfriend and attacks anyone who gets too close to her. Subverted in that it was revealed by the end of the episode that the potion didn't actually change his personality, it was just an excuse and he was really that heinous, and after using the potion for long enough he didn't even need it in order to transform anymore.

* The supervillain Mr. Hyde subverts this trope in a couple of different ways. While the "Hyde" persona is a sadist, the "Jekyll" persona is both an unethical scientist and a perverted DirtyOldMan to boot. Both personas are completely aware of one another, and they happen to get along just fine, although "Hyde" is the dominant personality.

* ''VisualNovel/JekyllAndHydeMazM'' is pretty faithful to [[Literature/TheStrangeCaseOfDrJekyllAndMrHyde the source material]] save for Mr. Hyde being a little more bishounen than strictly necessary. To be fair to the artist, he is never described as ugly in the book, just creepy and deep in the UncannyValley, and those aspects of his character come across just fine.

* ''Franchise/FiveNightsAtFreddys'':
** It's [[ImpliedTrope implied]] that this is how Glitchtrap's [[BrainwashedAndCrazy brainwashing]] [[AmbiguousSituation possibly]] works. Luis notes in one of ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddysARSpecialDelivery'''s unintended emails that there appears to be two sides to Vanessa when it comes to [[EmbarrassingBrowserHistory her online activity]]: the GlurgeAddict who [[NatureLover loves nature]], and the NightmareFuelStationAttendant who is interested in ColdBloodedTorture. Similarly, in ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddysSecurityBreach'' Vanessa behaves differently depending on whether she's in her security guard persona or her [[HairRaisingHare rabbit]] [[MalevolentMaskedMan mask]] persona; Vanessa normally is a grumpy ChildHater [[PunchClockVillain just trying to do her job]], while Vanny is FauxAffablyEvil and [[GenkiGirl energetic]]. There's some indication in the notes that Vanessa may not entirely remember her actions as Vanny. [[spoiler:The "Princess Quest" minigames also have puzzles involving the use of a 'shadow' version of the player character, further hinting at it.]]
** The Daycare Attendant from ''Security Breach'' is an animatronic with two modes. The first one you're introduced to is themed around the sun and is friendly, if a little clingy and overbearing. It is more of an obstacle than a threat, as it just wants to play with Gregory, a child who went into the Daycare after hours. There is, however, one rule when visiting the Daycare that it emphasizes: keep the lights ''on.'' The reason why shortly becomes clear, as the Attendant [[NighttimeTransformation transforms]] into a moon-themed mode that ''is'' a threat, as it chases Gregory around the Daycare while muttering about how 'naughty children' need to be punished for [[DisproportionateRetribution being up past their bedtime]]. One note that can be found in the area reveals it has traumatized at least one child with this sort of behavior before. Needless to say, Sun [[EvilMeScaresMe is terrified of Moon]] and immediately kicks Gregory out once it reverts back. [[spoiler: The 'Ruin' DLC introduces a third mode, Eclipse, which is implied to be [[SplitPersonalityMerge a mixture of Sun's and Moon's positive traits.]]]]

* ''Toys/SuperThings'' has the character Morph. His creation consisted of the mixing of a variety of essences, both hero and villain, forming the unstable blob. Due to having so many types of essences making his structure up, he has two personalities: his blue, white eyed Hero form, and his green, yellow-eyed Villain form. Unfortunately for himself, his powers are unstable to the point that he can't switch sides at will, nor does his Hero side or his Villain side realize either exists.

** "The Impatient Patient", directed by Norman [=McCabe=]: Daffy Duck goes to Dr. Jerkyll's to get cured of his severe case of hiccup. The place is outright scary but the doctor turns out to be a complete scaredy-cat. So, to successfully frighten the duck and cure him, Jerkyll concocts and drinks a formula to transform into Mr. Hyde. Not that Hyde is any less of a doofus.
