** Doubled by the fact that [[spoiler: the generally accepted remedy for lycanthrophy, wolfsbane (although they use "monkshood" which is of the same genus) isn't a cure, it's a retardant that slows down the transformation, but ultimately doesn't stop it.]]

* [[spoiler: Sam's death. Basically he was torn up a little bit, and was being kept alive by the werewolf Ginger, but was bleeding heavily. Ginger stops her attack when Brigitte shows up and she begins to give in to her developing wolf side and drink up some of Sam's blood. When Brigitte vomits it out and comes to her senses, the Ginger-Wolf bites Sam's neck, killing him.]]

* Ginger's transformation scene. You don't see the whole thing, but ''God''... what you do see looks ''[[BodyHorror painful]]''. It certainly doesn't help that at the beginning of it, it almost looks like Ginger's having a seizure as blood ''pours out of her mouth''.

!!In General
* The werewolf howls: they do not sound much like a natural wolf howl, more like a low long drone.

!!Ginger Snaps

'''In General'''

* The werewolf howls, they do not sound much like a natural wolf howl, they sound like a low long drone.

'''Ginger Snaps'''
* The Beast in Bailey Downs encounter, just how fast it runs and how strong it is. Just imagine, running through the dark woods, with that thing running in howling after you and it's fast enough to catch up to you.

* [[spoiler: Sam's death. Basically he was torn up a little bit, and was being kept alive by the werewolf Ginger, but was bleeding heavily. Ginger stops her attack when Brigitte shows up and she begins to give in to he developing wolf side and drink up some of Sam's blood. When Brigitte vomits it out and comes to her senses, the Ginger-Wolf bites Sam's neck, killing him.]]

'''Ginger Snaps 2: Unleashed'''
* The second movie Brigitte is on the run from a male werewolf and we don't even find out who he is, Word Of God confirms that it's not [[spoiler: Jason]] from the first movie, meaning this is just some random werewolf following her around intending to mate with her.
** Which, if you think about it, is more terrifying than if it actually ''were'' Jason - this means that werewolves are ''everywhere''.
* "''Rocky runs, Rocky plays, Rocky misses the good old days''".
* During a stop at the Gas Station in the second movie, the radio plays the song ''Make Me Do Anything You Want'' by A Foot In Cold Water. The song itself isn't scary, but it gives a dark forshadowing of [[spoiler: Ghost's plan.]]
* [[spoiler: Ghost's grand plan; to use Brigitte to kill people she doesn't like.]]
* Ghost's {{Leitmotif}}. Turned UpToEleven at the end.

'''Ginger Snaps Back: The Begining'''
* After the first werewolf attack, Ginger and Brigitte return to the safety of their bed, but they can still hear the fighting from outside. One of the men is heard screaming "''God help us, God help us''."
* Brigitte's hallucination sequence was pretty unsettling.

* During a stop at the Gas Station in the second movie, the radio plays the song ''Make me doe anything you want'' by A Foot In Cold Water. The song itself isn't scary, but it gives a dark forshadowing of [[spoiler: Ghost's plan.]]

* Brigitte's hallucination sequence in the prequel was pretty unsettling.

** In this movie there is the idea that once you turn into a werewolf, there's no going back.

* Brigitte's hallucination sequence in the prequel was pretty unsettling.

* [[spoiler: Sam's death. Basically he was torn up a little bet, and was being kept alive by the werewolf Ginger, but was bleeding heavily.
