** The 4Kids dub actually manages to make it more terrifying. No command is given to the firing squad, but you can still hear the gun fire off as he's speaking! This implies Gerald was so mentally broken he either didn't react to being shot or no longer cared he was about to die.

Granted in all likelihood 4Kids simply forgot to edit out the sounds of the gun being loaded and the shot, it doesn't make the end result any less chilling.

* The next episode has some incredibly unsettling reveals - At first we have minor things, like Cosmo turning out to belong to the same species as the Metarex, but then things go downhill really fast - namely, the backstory of Dark Oak/Lucas -- his home planet was basically stuck in a never-ending war against an unknown threat, with many of his fellow Seedrians either getting killed off en masse, or dying from overexertion after entering their [[OneWingedAngel Final Form]] -- the latter seemingly being even more threatening, because even '''children''' were entering their Final Forms despite knowing what consequences it will bring. As a result, the leader of the Seedrians (the implied name of Cosmo's species), Earthia (who was also Lucas' wife and the mother of Cosmo and Galaxina and was the likely inventor of the Seedrain amulet that the female members wear on their dressss to prevent themselves from entering their adult forms) decides that the Seedrians must abandon their home planet, while Lucas insisted that the Seedrians stay behind and fight, and as a result, the Seedrians would ultimately split into two factions -= Earthia's followers (seemingly all female), who decided to abandon the doomed planet and flee the fight, and Lucas' followers (likely all male), who decided to fight no matter what to save their home. Eventually, all of the vegetation on the planet begins to quickly die out - a result of Lucas [[PoweredByAForsakenChild harvesting the planet's life energy]], all for the purpose of using it to stabilize the Seedrians' Final Forms to prevent themselves from dying in said form. Needless to say, Earthia wasn't very pleased with this, which results in the conflict between the two Seedrain factions escalating even further, to the point where, even after the war was over, Earthia ordered to ''[[NukeEm nuke the planet]]'' before she and her followers left the planet, so that no survivors whatsoever will be left. Unfortunately for her, Lucas' followers and Lucas himself had survived, and later became the Metarex. So, in short, in that episode alone, we have a both [[UnwittingPawn unwilling and unwitting betrayal]], a chilling possibility of an innocent eight-year old ending up in an AndIMustScream scenario, and a villain backstory that involves both interplanetary and civil war, planetary-scale environmental abuse, child soldiers sacrificing their own lives by turning into their Final Forms, and an '''attempted genocide''' by usage of [[NukeEm nuclear weapons]]. All of which was after watching a short, child-friendly SlasherMovie starring a three-foot black hedgehog.

* Episode 73. It's basically Shadow hunting down Cosmo for the most part and if you're familiar with his strength, speed, and capabilities, then you know for sure you can't stop him from causing harm even if you tried. In fact, this is exactly what the Sonic cast was doing only to get pushed aside so easily. Of course, at the end of the episode, the crew was able to stop Shadow from running off away with Cosmo... but still the thought of [[BloodKnight the ultimate life for]] trespassing in your headquarters with the intent of harming you or a best friend'' is fear-incarnated. The worst part? They finally get Shadow off the vessel, via using the Sonic Driver cannon. They think they're safe... and then [[ImplacableMan Shadow]] arrives again. It's just due to coincidence that he didn't murder the entire crew.

* For some people, Dark Super Sonic. OH YEAH, ''[[PunctuatedForEmphasis The. Dark. Super-Sonic.]]'' You know all that fanart depicting a [[PaintItBlack black]] Super Sonic with [[BlankWhiteEyes whited-out eyes]] and an indigo/black aura? Yeah, this is where they originated from. Even Eggman was worried and unsettled about it, to the point of [[GetAHoldOfYourSelfMan having to talk Sonic down]] from going further. For all he knew, Dark Super Sonic might've gone on to kill the rest of them. This may have only lasted for a few seconds, but it left such a mark on the fanbase because of how [[DarkerAndEdgier dark]] and [[MoodWhiplash unexpected]] it was.

It's quite unsettling, especially with the mic on the machine constantly glitching out the words. Also, dirty Eggman looks creepy.
* Episode 1x17 ''The Adventures of Knuckles and Hawk'': Knuckles getting electrocuted by E-91 and screaming in pain while flashback cuts show the fallen Master Emerald shrine during a thunderstorm. His screams of pain don't help either.

and teeth aren't supposed to look like that... The razor-sharp fangs, the ghosts from that episode definitely wouldn't be out of place in a horror film.
** [[https://youtube.com/watch?v=xVYqGtsbPcQ Don't forget about that moment where]] When [[DemonicPossession Amy gets possessed (pictured above)!]] [[NotHerself Sweet]] [[NightmareFace dreams]]...
*** Not to mention
possessed]], she inherits their eyes and teeth, multiplying the fact that uncanniness.
**
Sonic is [[AndIMustScream perfectly conscious in the void he's in]] and how King Boom Boo is able to take over his voice.



** This episode could be a possible inspiration of the Sally.exe creepypasta.



** In the English Dub, Sonic's voice doesn't change too much aside from sounding very pissed about what happened to Chris and Cosmo. In the Japanese Dub, however, Sonic's voice turns dark very quick. After seeing a terrified Cosmo and unconscious Chris, his voice trembles with shock at first, but it soon becomes [[TranquilFury silently indignant]]. And when the carnage begins, he [[ScreamingWarrior screams bloody murder]] as he [[UnstoppableRage rips the robots apart.]]
*** The English dub also has [[LaughingMad Sonic chuckling crazily]] before he launches his CurbStompBattle.
** There's an interesting note in the music in the English dub. In the shot where we see Dark Sonic's [[SarcasmMode lovely]] [[SlasherSmile smile]], what sounds like Shadow's jingle plays behind his voice. There's something to be said about the AllLovingHero borrowing the tune of such an edgy AntiVillain.

-->'''Japanese Dub:''' [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone Is this]] [[CreepyMonotone what you wanted...?!]]
* [[spoiler: The Final Mova, in all of it's forms, really. Not helped by the fact that, [[HeroicSacrifice had Cosmo not intervened at the last moment]], [[ApocalypseHow the whole galaxy could have pretty much gotten destroyed.]] ]]

** [[spoiler: Its second form is a giant seed that can very slowly drain life energy and feed it to plants, making them grow as tall as mountains. And it can even control plants as seen when it uses vines to grab Cosmo, who is immune to the energy draining waves.]]
** [[spoiler: Its final form is a giant ball of energy with a gravitational pull so strong, it would have imploded and take the whole galaxy with it.]]

* Episode 73. [[spoiler:It's basically Shadow hunting down Cosmo for the most part and if you're familiar with his strength, speed, and capabilities, then you know for sure you can't stop him from causing harm even if you tried. In fact, this is exactly what the Sonic cast was doing only to get pushed aside so easily. Of course, at the end of the episode, the crew was able to stop Shadow from running off away with Cosmo... but still the thought of [[BloodKnight the ultimate life form trespassing in your headquarters with the intent of ''harming you or a best friend'']] is [[ParanoiaFuel fear-incarnated.]] ]]
** The worst part? [[spoiler: They finally get Shadow off the vessel, via using the Sonic Driver cannon. They think they're safe... and then [[ImplacableMan Shadow]] arrives again. It's just due to coincidence that he didn't murder the entire crew.]]
* And in the very next episode after that, we have some seriously [[FridgeHorror horrifying implications]]. [[spoiler: Long story short, the tracking device in Cosmo's brain can be removed...But at the cost of leaving Cosmo [[AndIMustScream deaf and blind for the rest of her life]]. And it's very likely that the Metarex intended on that.]]
** [[spoiler: Even not taking Cosmo's possible fate into account, just imagine how horrifying it must be - to know that you basically betrayed the people that you considered friends, all because of your own cowardice. To say that Cosmo [[BreakTheCutie didn't take it very well is an understatement.]] - at one point, she even contemplates escaping the Blue Typhoon and going on what is basically a suicide mission. Sure, everyone does convince her to stay, but once again - Cosmo's part of the episode just runs entirely on FridgeHorror.]]
** The episode also has some incredibly unsettling reveals - At first we have minor things, like [[spoiler:Cosmo turning out to belong to the same species as the Metarex]], but then things go downhill really fast - namely, the backstory of Dark Oak/[[spoiler:Lucas]] - [[spoiler:his home planet was basically stuck in a never-ending war against an unknown threat, with many of his fellow seedrians either getting killed off en masse, or dying from overexertion after entering their [[DangerousForbiddenTechnique Final]] [[OneWingedAngel Form]] - the latter seemingly being even more threatening, because even '''children''' were entering their Final Forms despite knowing what consequences it will bring. As a result, the leader of the seedrians, Earthia (Who was also Lucas' wife and the mother of Cosmo and Galaxina) decides that the seedrians must abandon their home planet, while Lucas insisted that the seedrians stay behind and fight, and as a result, the seedrians split into two factions - Earthia's followers (Seemingly all female), who decided to abandon the doomed planet, and Lucas' followers(Likely all male), who decided to fight no matter what. Eventually, all of the vegetation on the planet begins to quickly die out - a result of Lucas [[PoweredByAForsakenChild harvesting the planet's life energy]], all for the purpose of using it to stabilize the seedrians' Final Forms. Needless to say, Earthia wasn't very pleased with this, which results in the conflict between the two factions escalating even further, to the point where, even after the war was over, Earthia ordered to ''[[NukeEm nuke the planet]]'' before she and her followers left the planet, so that no survivors whatsoever will be left. Unfortunately for her, Lucas' followers and Lucas himself had survived, and later became the Metarex.]]
** So, in short, in that episode alone, we have [[spoiler: a both [[UnwittingPawn unwilling]] ''[[UnwittingPawn and]]'' [[UnwittingPawn unwitting betrayal]], a chilling possibility of an innocent eight-year old ending up in an AndIMustScream scenario, and a villain backstory that involves both interplanetary and civil war, planetary-scale environmental abuse, child soldiers sacrificing their own lives, and an '''attempted genocide''' by usage of '''[[NukeEm nuclear weapons]]'''. All of which was after watching a short, child-friendly SlasherMovie starring a three-foot black hedgehog.]] [[WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids You know...]][[JustForPun 4Kids!]]

* In Episode 1x11, ''The Beautiful, Mysterious Thief, Rouge'', the titular bat is stopped by E70-Noizi. How? It ''loudly broadcasts the sounds of children crying for help''. It's quite unsettling, especially with the mic on the machine constantly glitching out the words.

** When the director says that she had him worried. Lindsey asks why. The police explains that nobody has ever escaped from the ghosts before. Chris then asks about the ghosts to the police officer who explains a rumor that the place they are at sits on an ancient burial ground and that the original owner built the castle there. When the owner heard about the legend about ghosts living there, he laughed and said that they were nonsense. The man disappeared after the first night he stayed there, never to be seen again. The final thing the viewers see is two ghosts in one of the upper-story windows laughing.

* For some people, Dark Super Sonic. OH YEAH, ''[[PunctuatedForEmphasis The. Dark. Super-Sonic.]]'' You know all that fanart depicting a [[PaintItBlack black]] Super Sonic with [[BlankWhiteEyes whited-out eyes]] and an indigo/black aura? Yeah, this is where they originated from. Even Eggman was worried and unsettled about it, to the point of convincing Sonic to [[GetAHoldOfYourSelfMan calm down.]] For all he knew, Dark Super Sonic might've gone on to kill the rest of them. This may have only lasted for a few seconds, but it left such a mark on the fanbase because of how [[DarkerAndEdgier dark]] and [[MoodWhiplash unexpected]] it was.
