** In the anime, when Jotaro notices the knives falling around Jolyne, our famously unflappable hero [[OOCIsSeriousBusiness SCREAMS IN TERROR]]. That's right, Pucci managed to do something none of Jotaro's other enemies managed to do, and that was break him emotionally.

*** Literally everyone else on the planet bears witness to time accelerating before their eyes. Made in Heaven's power has no effect on living beings, be it human, plant, or animal. But then there is ''everything else''. At first, you just see clouds moving faster than normal. Then your ice cream melts in seconds, or see a ball fly up, only to drop with enough force to destroy your jaw. Cars speed up like trains, risking a hit-and-run or accident, or helicopters going too fast until they crash. Then you the sun begins cycling faster and faster until it becomes a line of light. As time speeds up even more, food rots away, dust piles up, clothes erode, and buildings crumble. Even the ground breaks apart as it Earth itself is coming to an end. Like Emporio, you see the rest of the universe follows suit and eventually reset. That's terrifying, though not as terrifying as Pucci later stating that you will have full awareness of your entire lifespan after rebirth if his plans were finalized. If that doesn't achieve happiness, it would certainly instill some serious unease.

** The massacre of the group, once Made In Heaven is created, it is able to blitz kill every single member with ease, leaving Emporio the only survivor, [[TheHeroDies Not even Jolyne or Jotaro]] were spared. While the previous main villains were [[HeroKiller not slouches in getting in kills on the protagonists]], none of them came close to how efficient and nearly one-sided the massacre was.

* Rikiel's Stand, Sky High, controls fictional creatures called "rods", which move at speeds too fast to see and can drain body heat without even touching you. The effect of this and the way they're described are downright horrifying.

* Donatello's stand, Under World, makes its introduction when a bleeding little kid suddenly emerges from the cake Pucci made for him, creepy telling Donatello about how he was shot and killed by his own father, before a gunshot suddenly fires through the kid's body and hits a random person outside, then when people come into the room to find the cause of the commotion, the kid's gone. The incident itself isn't explained for a while until Hermes deduces Under World's powers (the kid was killed by his father and the "memory" of the incident remained in the ground until Under World revived the memory, causing the father to be shot), making it even creepier.

* Donatello's stand, Under World, makes its introduction when a bleeding little kid suddenly emerges from the cake Pucci made for him, creepy telling Donatello about how he was shot and killed by his own father, before a gunshot suddenly fires through the kid's body and hits a random person outside, then when people come into the room to find the cause of the commotion, the kid's gone. The incident itself isn't explained for a while until Hermes deduces Under World's powers (the kid was killed by his father several years back and the "memory" of the incident remained in the ground until Under World revived the memory), making it even creepier.

* During the conclusion of the Dragon's Dream fight, Kenzō is severely burnt, causing him to look less like the sagacious martial artist with delusions of grandeur and more like the warped monster, he is deep down, with his previous clear irises becoming frenzied lines to denote his [[VillainousBreakdown descent to open madness]]].

-->'''DIO:''' Its effects don't come close to things like severely injuring or controlling people, nor weakening them, or even knocking them out. It doesn't inflict one external action. All it does...''is make them mad''.

-->'''DIO:''' It can't incur damage, it can't control people, it can't hurt them, it can't make people fall asleep. It can't do any of that. It just makes people ''angry''.

** F.F. blowing her brains out when Whitesnake turns her own ArmCannon on her. And we're treated to a [[{{Gorn}} rather messy shot of it]]. She survived, but ''damn''.
** Yo-Yo Ma's acid later melts off her lower jaw, leaving it hanging on a hinge, leading to a [[FacialHorror a ghastly image]].

** The incident that led to his burning. Kenzō attempts to have F.F. violently shocked to death via the electric chair that happened to be in the lower part of the facility while deeply enjoying the possibility of their imminent demise, made all the more harrowing as F.F. is a water-based plankton colony Stand, making it even more dangerous for her. Thankfully, F.F. manages to hold him while being shocked, leading to his previous sagacious looks being burnt away as they barely survive.

* Ungalo and his Stand, [[RealityWarper Bohemian Rhapsody]], forces the fate of the characters onto those who identify the most with said characters, especially those with grisly fates. It alters reality by turning any barrier between yourself and your intended attacker into an open page for them them to pass through to enact their intended actions. And the characters that manifest are warped due to being conjured through the warped lens of a hateful and hideous drug addict who despises the entire world for how it treated him, as shown through [[http://jjba.wikia.com/wiki/File:Bohemianrhapsody.JPG with the Seven Dwarfs, the mother Goat, and Pinocchio]].

* Donatello's stand, Under World, makes its introduction when a bleeding little kid suddenly emerges of the cake Pucci made for him, creepy telling Donatello about how he was shot and killed by his own father, before a gunshot suddenly fires through the kid's body and hits a random person outside, then when people come into the room to find the cause of the commotion, the kid's gone. The incident itself isn't explained for a while until Hermes deduces Under World's powers (the kid was killed by his father several years back and the "memory" of the incident remained in the ground until Under World revived the memory), making it even creepier.

* Ungalo and his Stand, [[RealityWarper Bohemian Rhapsody]], are probably the reason Araki was never picked as an artist for Disney. Considering [[http://jjba.wikia.com/wiki/File:Bohemianrhapsody.JPG how the Dwarfs and Pinocchio turned out]], we should all be glad that Mickey jumped ship before we could really see him.
** The mother goat is a sight to behold and to fear.

** Keep in mind that Weather Report [[PowerIncontinence isn't even in full control of Heavy Weather]], and its suggested that it could've outright '''destroyed the ozone layer'''.

** During the conclusion of the Dragon's Dream fight, Kenzō is severely burnt, causing him to look less like the aged martial artist with delusions of grandeur and more like the warped monster he is deep down, with his previous clear irises becoming frenzied lines to denote his VillainousBreakdown.

* The Green Baby, the product of this surreally grotesque ritual, is a [[HumanoidHumanoid green-skinned baby with completely red eyes, elongated eyebrows, and various plant-like features]]. On top of having the power to turn people into plants, it has a Stand that causes those without the proper phrases to shrink by a certain percentage each time they get closer to the baby until they've shrunken so much that they cease to exist. Not helped by its Stand, which is normally small as the baby itself, becomes a towering giant from the perspective of the affected targets as it tries to kill them.

Just when you thought ''[=JoJo=]'s Bizarre Adventure'''s [[NightmareFuel addiction to violence, surreally nightmarish imagery brought upon by inventive Stands, and being pursued by psychotic criminals]] couldn't get any worse, ''[[Manga/JojosBizarreAdventureStoneOcean Stone Ocean]]'' ramps up the ante by taking place in prison for the majority of the Part, [[AloneWithThePsycho meaning the heroes often live in the same place with criminals who have very realistic crimes, wishing to inflict those deeds onto them]]. Made all the worse by the fact that they [[SerialEscalation have more creatively inventive Stands than previous parts to use in their attempts to kill them in a variety of nightmarish ways]]. Additionally, this Part invokes ReligiousHorror with its SinisterMinister of the BigBad planning to bring forth the {{Apocalypse|How}} based on the plans of the series' most infamous vampire.

** The way the concept is introduced is shown through [[NightmareFace the top right image]], but to elaborate, a short man who picked up DIO's bone undergoes an implied [[PainfulTransformation nauseating transformation]] in which his spine is elongated unnaturally longer than it should be, leading to the aforementioned [[TheReveal reveal that the face is morphing into a plant]] with the left morphing into a flower before his head bursts open before the transformation could get any worse.
* The way Gwess uses her ability is beyond messed up. Her Stand, Goo Goo Dolls, has the power to shrink people, kinda like Formaggio's Little Feet from Part 5, only if the victim disobeys the user's orders, the Stand appears again and rips them to shreds. And its user is a {{yandere}} obsessed by having [[ControlFreak absolute control]] over her "friends".
** She also forces her victims to wear animal suits like rats and parrots. What makes this horrifying you is that they aren't real suits. ''They're actual dead animals that had their organs hollowed out so she could fit her victims in.'' Imagine being shrunken down to the size of a rat, have it thrown on you, and being forced to wear it's skin. And if you happen to hate rats...

** Whitesnake itself, compared to the [[LightIsNotGood divine appearing The World]], the [[DarkIsEvil skeletal-feline Killer Queen]], and [[SatanicArchetype the perpetually angry, demonic King Crimson]]; is a low-key, dark clothed, eerie figure with melting pupil eye designs, with its attire being subtly invoking sadomasochist gear. Its subtle, menacing presence gives it a different type of terror than the more obviously dangerous Stands that came before it.
** In the anime, the Stands of the main villains have the same, loud and hammy voices of their users. Whitesnake has [[VoiceOfTheLegion a deep reverb]] that makes it sound like a demon, perfect for hiding its identity as a Stand of a soft-spoken priest.

** During the brief conversation between Sports Maxx and Whitesnake, the latter is briefly very angrily, causing its usually calm features to twist into an [[NightmareFace animalistic expression of rage]].

** The chapter showing Jolyne struggling to overcome it really enforces that Jail House Lock is, at a base level, a Stand that enforces dementia on whoever is unfortunate enough to encounter it. After spending so much time growing as a person and a fighter, the way she stumbles around the prison barely understanding something as simple as a three panel comic strip is hard to read. It says a lot that Gwess, who has a love/hate relationship with Jolyne at best, has nothing but sympathy and understanding for her cellmate's new "condition" and goes out of her way to make things easier for her.

** The mother goat is a sight to behold, and to fear.

** During the conclusion of the Dragon's Dream fight, Kenzo is severely burnt- causing him to look less like the aged martial artist with delusions of grandeur and more like the warped monster he is deep down- with his previous clear irises becoming frenzied lines to denote his VillainousBreakdown.

* DIO's bone [[BodyHorror causing flowers to bloom out of people's bodies]]. And had she stayed in the sunlight, this would've happened to Jolyne, too.

* Foo Fighters' debut chapter. Hermes suddenly notices there are six people in their search group whereas previously there was only five. The prisoners begin to discuss the matter when their security bracelets begin beeping...as in, the bracelets that explode if they get too far away from the guard start beeping, and Atroe's actually explodes. After a brief scuffle with the Stand Foo Fighters, Hermes and Jolyne get back to shore and being demanding who the Stand user is and when no one fesses up Jolyne begins attacking everyone...and they begin ''[[BodyHorror melting]]'', their faces elongating and black slime oozing out of their mouths and eyes as Foo Fighters reappears (as a Stand seperate from a Stand user, to boot). It then [[https://archive.ph/biiln/053a269571e29e84c128f76166828e325e1c51ee.png cuts to a shot of]] the black-haired and shaved head prisoners as Foo Fighters drains their body fluids with the shaved head woman giving us a terrifying GlasgowGrin. Was it mentioned that the shaved-head woman had inverted colored eyes?

** Yo-Yo Ma's acid later melts off her lower jaw, leaving it hanging on a hinge, leading a [[FacialHorror a ghastly image]].
* Miraschon's Stand, Marilyn Manson is a gambling based Stand like the [[Manga/JojosBizarreAdventureStardustCrusaders D'Arby Brothers]], forcing the loser to cough up the collateral for losing. Unlike the [[YourSoulIsMine more esoteric conditions of failure of losing one's soul]], it [[BodyHorror brutally removes your vital organs]] to sell on the black market. And it's made worse that it's [[NighInvulnerability immune to physical damage]], forcing the participants to play the game until either the user is forced to surrender or it takes even more organs as collateral.
* When looking to augment his plans, Pucci remembers a discussion he had with DIO about the weakest Stand that DIO had seen. He responds with something that sounds like a ghost story. Six hikers stay in a lodge, but one of the hikers remarks about how the owner smelled bad within earshot. This caused the the owner to subconsciously activate his Stand, Survivor. It's not imposing on it's own, being a series of organic landmines that give off around 0.07 volts. Not enough to even hurt anyone, let alone kill them. But those volts are a manifestation of the user's anger lashing out, and affect everyone who gets caught in Survivor's current by dumping that anger into their brains without them even knowing how or why they're angry. It eventually unlocks their natural inhibitions that keep them from hurting themselves doing superhuman feats and makes them need to hurt ''something'' to get the aggression out. He didn't even mean to leave it there. And the hikers were stuck with it active for hours on end. By the time they continued on their path, they had become homicidally enraged with one another and ended up murdering eachother in a fight so intense that people's teeth got lodged in the nearby rock. This serves the point of demonstrating to Pucci that no matter what a Stand's power is on paper, even the smallest amount of training - or even just the right situation - turns it into a weapon of untold destruction if properly utilized.

* Lang Rangler is an odd looking man with suction fingertips and mostly moves on all fours like an animal. When he spits a target is when the true horror of his ability takes place. The immediate area's gravity is nullified, causing all of the blood to flush out of the body and cause the flesh to swell out in a grotesque. Even the user himself isn't immune as his eyes begin to bulge out when exposed to his own power.

** Sports Maxx in general is an incredibly creepy individual. Unlike some of the NeighborhoodFriendlyGangsters shown in the previous Part, Maxx is far more grounded, far more realistic approach to a ruthless member of organized crime, not above dealing drugs and prostitutes like the BigBad of the previous Part. His EstablishingCharacterMoment has him brutally execute someone by having them bite down on a chunk of wood and while he stomps the back of their neck. When Ermes' sister Gloria catches sight of this he whips around and delivers a ''hellish'' stare to her location. Later Gloria was found dead in a ditch, and its implied that despite the police finally managing to catch him, Sports Maxx managed to pull some strings to earn a mere five year stint for tax evasion and assault rather than the life imprisonment he should have gotten for murder. His death is brutal, too. Ermes traps him in a prison sewage pipe and drowns him in filth. [[KickTheSonOfABitch A monster like him deserved such a demise]], but its still a horrible way to go.
* Viviano Westwood was happily pounding on Jolyne ''while his left cheek was ripped enough to reveal some of the jawbone''. Jolyne eventually had to try skinning him with his own toenail to escape.

* After presenting Jolyne with a SadisticChoice of either defeating him or retrieving Jotaro's Memory disc, Pucci proceeds to begin his {{fusion|dance}} with the Green Baby. He [[OminousWalk slowly approaches it]], complete with a SlasherSmile on his face, and once he's done [[CreepyMonotone monotonously]] saying the fourteen phrases, he finally fuses with it... through [[DeliberateInjuryGambit ripping a bone out]] from his arm and letting the Green Baby ''[[SickeningCrunch bite]]'' it.
* Emporio, under the influence of Jail House Lock, being unable to move from an electrocuted puddle because he's stuck in a constant loop of remembering what he's supposed to do.

Just when you thought ''[=JoJo=]'s Bizarre Adventure'''s addiction to violence, surreally nightmarish imagery brought upon by inventive Stands, and being pursued by psychotic criminals couldn't get any worse, ''Stone Ocean'' ramps up the ante by taking place in a prison for the majority of the part, [[AloneWithThePsycho meaning the heroes often live in the same place with criminals who have very realistic crimes, wishing to inflict those deeds onto them]]. Made all the worse by the fact that they [[SerialEscalation have more creatively inventive Stands than previous parts to use in their attempts to kill them in a variety of nightmarish ways]]. Additionally, this Part invokes ReligiousHorror with its SinisterMinister of a BigBad planning to bring forth the Apocalypse based on the plans of the series' most infamous vampire.

* During the brief time Pucci was traveling to Cape Canaveral, there were various hints to Made In Heaven; one such example is accelerating the age of a baby to a grown man. This would be fine, but... [[BodyHorror it's on a single side.]] The end result is [[https://static.jojowiki.com/images/e/e5/latest/20200821162848/C-Moon_age_acceleration.png a malformed baby whose right side is a fully grown man]]. This was so disturbing, in fact, that in a very uncharacteristic mode, [[{{Bowdlerise}} the anime left it out]], instead replacing it with a new scene showing the eggs that the woman purchases turning into half-formed chicks twitching and still partly yolks, which is still very disturbing to see.
