There were a lot of disturbing situations in ''Series/FridayThe13thTheSeries'', despite its overall cheesiness.

* There were a lot of disturbing situations in the series, despite its overall cheesiness. One of the freakiest episodes, "The Long Road Home", involved a body-transferring amulet. A corrupt hick with a penchant for stuffing animals (and people) is shoved down the stairs by a chair containing the decayed stuffed corpse of his grandfather and is on the verge of death; rather than dying, he transfers his mind into the corpse. Normally, this would restore the corpse to a living, intact condition, but perhaps being rotten and stuffed with sawdust was too much to overcome. When the madman reappears, he hisses eerily, "Why die?", as if even life as a decaying monster is better than death to him. (Unfortunately, captioning revealed that he actually says "Party time," which while a CallBack to something he said to his brother earlier in the episode is too trite to be really scary.)

* No list of this series' Nightmare Fuel can be complete without mentioning "My Wife As A Dog". It's bad enough that the cursed collar starts turning the man's "disobedient" wife into a dog. The ending makes it worse [[spoiler: because [[TheBadGuyWins the bad guy WON]]. While the collar is eventually recovered and taken back to the shop, the original wife is still very much a golden retriever]].

* The cathedral radio of "And Now the News" is both an oddly literal version of this and a {{Meta}} implication of TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou...since it works by making the listener hear [[MoodDissonance a cheery announcer]] [[HaveANiceDeath commentating on their horrible fate]] related to their personal fear, one they cannot evade since the radio keeps them from leaving its presence until the death has been carried out. Since this invariably occurs when the victim is tuning in while in bed, it's as if their secret nightmares have been brought to life. And since the viewer is listening too...
