** Oolong Island. You don't know what, but ''something'' has gone wrong on this secret test island for villains. [[DaylightHorror The sunny tropics do not make the attacking robots and screaming scientists less creepy.]]

* After you beat Ultra-Humanite, we see a cutscene of Gorilla Grodd as he watches Ultra-Humanite have his gorilla load supplies as Grodd says that Ultra-Humanite's no true gorilla. We then get a ''very'' disturbing ImagineSpot from Grodd as his forces turn everyone in a flaming, ruined Metropolis into gorillas, ''including Superman!'' Then, we see Grodd's gorillas forcing the gorilla-fied heroes and citizens to load supplies onto ships, a gorilla-fied Batwoman frantically shaking a wire fence and the Ultra-Humanite ''about to be torn apart'' as Grodd watches the spectacle from a throne atop The Daily Planet accomponied by some chained up gorillas. Jens Andersen (the casting director)'s voice acting sells the whole scene too with his [[EvilSoundsDeep deep, almost demonic voice for Grodd]].

** The EldritchLocation Trigon's power has turned Gotham's park into. There's pillars covered in demonic power crystals just floating in the air hundres of feet up in odd formations and some parts of the ground look like hell itself.

** ''And then'' there’s the cinematic where Lex escapes to the past. Cornered and out of options, the remaining heroes in a last ditch effort make a time machine with the plan to send someone in the past. Only that someone isn’t Luthor. Oh no, Luthor purposely kills the one that was to go back. Even when working for the betterment of others, he can’t help but be selfish.

* The cinematic trailers take everything UpToEleven. The battlefield where Lex and his team are fighting what remains of the Justice League is nothing short of a city practically leveled with only a handful of buildings still standing. The fighting between heroes and villains is brutal and not everyone survives. Special note goes to Superman. First, he is summoned by a screaming Wonder Woman being tortured by Lex Luthor. His appearance is frightening for just how ''different'' he looks. A five o’clock shadow coupled with a torn cape and constant [[RedEyesTakeWarning burning red eyes]]. This Superman ''''' kills''''' Black Adam by blasting his head with heat vision, then begins to tear at Lex in a rage. This Superman has been driven off the edge.

* The Anti-Monitor's Shadow Demons. All black humanoids with weird, unnatural, janky movements (likely lag due to the sheer number of characters on screen at the time).

* One sidequest of the [[{{Shazam}} Revival of Isis]] story arc has you defuse Joker Venom from a break-in a few days back, inside a warehouse filled with zombies. The very last one is in a hidden back room that has more in common with the Joker Missions than the current one. And then you see the Zombie Joker Goons.

* Black Lanterns are coming to the game. You know all that wonderful nightmare fuel from the comics? From raising the dead into Black Lanterns, to possession by a Black Lantern Ring? Its now in the game with visuals and audio to match. Sleep tight!

* In Metropolis, heroic characters are often tasked with saving citizens before they turn into apes, fish men, or some other suitably SilverAge chicanery. In Gotham, when dealing with the Joker? Victims are strapped to huge blocks of C4 with a timer where your failure means their death, end of story.

** Not that the Metopolis guys have it any easier. Getting turned into gorillas or beastmen usually is accompanied by terrified screams of pain. It's worse with the gorillas, since as soon as they turn Grodd's mind control kicks in and they instantly calm down with a "Hail Grodd!"

* As said in the YMMV page, the player character is quite possibly a CompleteMonster. Some of the villain missions are pretty messed up for a T-rated game, including: car-bombing police, lighting injured police officers on fire, summoning demons, giving people lethal doses of venom (which is shown to be a visibly painful way to die), poisoning drugs, knocking random people off of tall buildings (killing them)...the list goes on. Worse is that your body-count will also likely include various DC superheroes (ok, they're usually not ''killed'', but still).

Your villain character is essentially a more intelligent version of Doomsday.

** Ellsworth Memorial Hospital: fleshy red globs dangling from the ceilings. Mind-controlled doctors and patients indulging in the worst impulses the Seven Deadly Sins can bring out of them, under the watchful eyes of demonic overseers. Random altars full of blood (take a guess where it came from). Piles of unidentifiable flesh with giant eyeballs ''that are constantly looking around and blinking, as if panicked about what they are now.'' Have a nice day.

* Playing in the Arkham Asylum Alert can be quite creepy and the voice that sometimes blends in doesn't help either.
** Ace Chemicals is eerie too, and there you have Morrow over the PA system, constantly screaming for security to stop and/or kill you.
