We dont get a graphic description of what Sam finds inside but it isn't hard to imagine. Tragically, Sam remembers that he knew of the baby boy and that he had been living there. Sam is horrified that he forgot to check on the boy and ends up lashing out and arguing with Quinn as a result.

* In chapter nineteen San, Quinn and Brooke are sent out to go through the houses in Perdido Beach and make sure that the stoves are switched off, the porch lights are switched on. They then enter a house with a strong smell of decomposition inside. And then they see a [[DeathOfAChild baby's pacifier]] just inside the front door...

* [[AdultFear Bette's death]] arguably qualifies. She is [[TapOnTheHead hit over the head]] by Orc after she is caught using the power and, while the intent seemed to be to merely intimidate her, she dies of complications shortly afterwards.

* The series is revealed to be set in a virtual reality overseen by an increasingly sadistic AI behind the ASO virus. The creators of the virtual world inform Malik that the only way to stop the AI is to shut the program down, which would erase every single person living in the program. This sends the protagonists into an existential crisis over what is "real" and what isn't, and whether they have the right to condemn all the other virtual people in the simulation one way or the other.

* Drake finds Astrid by trailing an FBI agent home from daycare and forcing her to tell him Astrid's address by [[AdultFear torturing her six-year-old son in front of her]]. Once he has the information he needs, he kills the mother anyway, then murders the little boy. He killed the mother to keep her from calling the cops after he left, and [[DisproportionateRetribution the child because he kept calling Drake a "bad man."]]

* Malik's [[BlessedWithSuck powers]]. After Shade gave him an ASO injection to heal him from the burns Napalm gave him, [[HopeSpot he initially thinks he's healed]]. Turns out that he's actually in morph, and his real body is just as badly injured as it used to be, so if he ever changes back he'll die within minutes. This means that he can never have a moment's peace from the Dark Watchers. On top of that, his only power is an area-of-effect AgonyBeam that causes literally maddening pain. It's not even combat-applicable, since mutants in morph are immune. When he figures all this out, he understandably breaks down. When he tries to de-morph, though, he changes back to his burned body, described as [[BodyHorror charcoal flesh and exposed bones]].

* Drake has a [[TortureCellar torture cave]] where he takes some of his victims. There, he crucifies them to the wall with railroad spikes and tortures them for weeks on end, giving them just enough water to keep them alive and occasionally feeding them animal feces. He claims that the longest someone lasted was [[CruelAndUnusualDeath thirty-four days]].

!!''Hero''
* [[BigBad Bob Markovic]], aka Vector, is a [[TheWormThatWalks sentient swarm of monstrous insects]] that carry all manner of horrendous, fast-acting diseases. People infected by Vector's bugs quickly end up as emaciated husks covered in a churning mass of pus, blisters, buboes, and tumors, and their feet are supernaturally fixed to the ground so that they cannot move or be moved. Antibiotics that would normally act against these diseases instead make them worse. The worst part is that these people don't die. ''[[AndIMustScream Ever]]''. They are in constant, unimaginable agony, and remain that way until someone else manually kills them. Unsurprisingly, "Vectored" people spend most of their time begging for someone to [[MercyKill put them out of their misery]].

* Vincent Vu, aka Abaddon, is a fifteen-year-old boy with severe, undiagnosed schizophrenia, causing persistent delusions that he is the biblical Abaddon the Destroyer. When he accompanies his mom on a research trip to retrieve an ASO from the ocean floor, he sneaks a bite of some of it. This turns him into a [[EldritchAbomination starfish-shaped Lovecraftian nightmare 140 feet across]], equipped with deadly poisonous stingers and regenerative powers so potent that he can safely break off and control pieces of himself. Vu's transformation alone kills most of the people on the ship with him, but the survivors have it even worse; Abaddon's pieces slowly tear some of them apart for ''hours'', while others get bodyjacked by other pieces and turned into gruesomely deformed and mutated PeoplePuppets.

!!''Villain''
* [[BigBad Dillon Poe]]. His morph doesn't make him any more ''physically'' dangerous, but it grants him an extremely powerful CompellingVoice. It works over absolutely ''any'' live medium, so people hearing him through speakers or even on a livestream are just as vulnerable as someone next to him. He can and does control thousands of people at once, who are [[AndIMustScream fully aware of what's happening and unable to stop themselves]].

* The first time we see Lana in ''GONE'', she's in the passenger seat of a truck being driven by her Grandpa Luke. Then her grandpa disappears, [[AdultFear leaving her and her dog trapped in a truck out of control]]. What happens next is [[BloodyHorror grisly]] in its own right, and Michael Grant's description of the next few minutes for Lana is enough to haunt the reader for a long time. She gets turned into a damn ragdoll in that truck, and at the end of it all not only is her body graphically twisted, but her right arm is horrifically broken, which the author [[SarcasmMode graciously]] describes in great detail, graciously mentioning how her arm has ''[[{{Squick}} broken bones nearly poking through the flesh]]''.

By the time of ''Monster'', he has murdered eighteen people, [[CruelAndUnusualDeath partially flaying them before dragging them into the sunlight to bake to death]].

* Gaea's RapidAging to an adult form requires enormous amounts of food, which she usually gets by killing and eating small animals...until she sees a young man leaning a ladder against the FAYZ to get a better look inside. She briefly collapses it, just long enough for him to fall in, and attacks him. She doesn't kill him outright, though - she instead [[AnArmAndALeg tears off one of his arms]], cauterizes the wound, cooks the arm, and eats it. Afterward, she forces him to follow her, Drake, and Diana around so that he can [[EatenAlive feed her more later]]. Unsurprisingly, he goes mad in a matter of days, and eventually comes to see her as a deity.
