History NightmareFuel / OneHundredAndOneDalmatians

* In a way, there's the climax of the movie leading up to the infamous chase scene. In order to get past Cruella and her goons to reach the van that will take them back to London, the dalmatians all disguise themselves as Labradors. The whole sequence is full of building tension as the dalmatians try to sneak towards the van in a RaceAgainstTheClock while hoping Cruella and the others won't see through their disguises, while at the same time said villains are getting dangerously close to finding where they're hiding, culminating in Pongo and the remaining puppies walking past Cruella as she watches them while melting snow is dripping on them and threatening to wash away the soot. Naturally, when Lucky gets buried in snow, removing his disguise and exposing the dogs, all hell breaks loose.

'''Perdita:''' She's a devil! A witch! Oh what do we do?

* The shot where Hell Hall darkening with the moon disappearing behind the clouds when Sgt. Tibbs and Colonel go there to investigate, is quite creepy. The Colonel even warns Tibbs to be careful going in there.

* '''Cruella De Vil'''. What else can one expect from someone with the words ''cruel'' and ''devil'' in her name. She's a walking representation of animal abuse and vanity whose prime focus is to make fashion wear out of animals and is gunning for the puppies of her old school friend. She only gets worse throughout the film as she [[SanitySlippage literally goes insane trying to get the puppies]] and sports a prolific NightmareFace during the pursuit (pictured above) with the climax being her ramming the back of the delivery truck. Take a look at Pongo and Perdita's faces in that split-second before Cruella hits the truck; that's not fear, that's ''terror''.

* When Pongo and Perdita arrive, they and Colonel immediately rush to the inside of Hell Hall. When we cut back to the inside of the manor, a ScareChord is heard and the whole room is a lit bright red illuminated from the fireplace as Sergeant Tibbs and the puppies are all helplessly huddled together against a wall as Horace and Jasper prepare to harm them. Luckily Pongo and Perdita burst through a window to save their puppies.
* A few brief close-up shots of Pongo and Perdita's [[NightmareFace faces]] as they face off against Horace and Jasper as the vicious protective MamaBear and PapaBear they are.

** Another thing that should be noted is that Cruella is very unique compared to the other Disney villains as much like [[WesternAnimation/{{Cinderella}} Lady Tremaine]] and [[WesternAnimation/TheHunchbackOfNotreDameDisney Frollo]], she is realistic. People like her exist in ''real life''. For example, the chances of you coming across [[WesternAnimation/SnowWhiteandtheSevenDwarfs an evil queen]], [[WesternAnimation/{{Aladdin}} a sorcerer]], [[WesternAnimation/TheLittleMermaid a sea witch]] or a [[WesternAnimation/PeterPan pirate]] are slim-to-none. And no one has good publicity like [[WesternAnimation/BeautyandtheBeast Gaston]]. But are there AxCrazy animal abusers out there who take delight in seeing poor little animals getting killed? You bet your biscuits!

* Upon reuniting with their puppies at the barn, Pongo and Perdita learn why would Cruella want so many dalmatian puppies:

** Lucky is stillborn; only Roger's persistence at CPRCleanPrettyReliable saves him.

* The many examples of AdultFear in the film alone:

** When the first dane arrives at the park and leads Pongo and Perdita on where to go to locate their puppies:

'''Perdita:''' Oh Pongo, it ''was'' her!\\

'''Jasper:''' You couldn't get half a dozen coats out if the whole caboodle.\\

'''Tibs:''' ''(listening, appalled)'' Coats?! ''Dog-skin'' coats?!

-->'''Cruella:''' Do you understand?! Tonight!\\

'''Jasper:''' But they ain't big enough! You couldn't get half a dozen coats out if the whole caboodle.\\

-->'''Great Dane:''' When you reach Withermarsh, contact old Towser. He'll direct you to the Colonel and the Colonel will take you...to your puppies at the de Vil place.\\

'''Perdita:''' Oh Pongo, it was her!\\

'''Pongo:''' ''(running)'' There's no time to explain!\\

'''Cruella:''' Anyway you'd like to, ''poison them, drown them, bash them in the head''! You got any chloroform?! I don't care how you kill the little beasts but do it! '''And do it now!!'''

* When Pongo and Perdita arrive, they and Colonel immediately rush to the inside of Hell Hall. When we cut back to the inside of the manor, A ScareChord is heard and the whole room is a bright red illuminated by the fireplace as Sargeant Tibbs and the puppies are all helplessly huddled together against a wall as Horace and Jasper prepare to harm them. Luckily Pongo and Perdita burst through a window to save their puppies.

'''Pongo:''' (running) There's no time to explain!\\
'''Perdita:''' (running) Oh I hope we're not too late!
** And the ominous tunnel leading out of town to the countryside followed by the Great Dane giving Pongo and Perdita advice as they run off. The echos and dark hallway illuminated by thin lights in the heavy fog don't help:
