** What's worse, that's the final scene of this episode. The screen blacks out as we hear Georgia's ''screams''. According to Wiki/TheOtherWiki, an Alp is related to the Incubus; a male demon known to seduce women and break into their homes to rape and kill their targets when they least suspect. With the ending showing the Alp cornering Georgia in the dark of night alone with no indication of where her mother is and the fact that he's been trying to get his hands on Georgia all day only adds more nightmares and unpleasant ideas.

* In "Headshot," Cassandra Hobbs is the Devil--tempting her clients into unknowingly selling their souls in exchange for becoming "the most famous face on the planet," after which she steals their faces and hangs their headshots on a wall. True as that may be, she didn't really do '''anything''' to Gracie Wild to turn her into the episode's VillainProtagonist. ''Gracie'' sassily lied to her mother about Lexi tutoring her. ''Gracie'' convinced Dylan to help her cheat on her midterm math test and let him get suspended. ''Gracie'' caused Flynn to be hospitalized by making sure she got a smoothie with Red Dye 3, causing her skin to break out in boils. ''Gracie'' effectively told Lexi (her only friend at that point) that she was a jealous butterface. All Cassandra did was lure Gracie into a situation that allowed her true colors to blossom. It really makes you wonder just how cruel your friends really are and how many girls are out there wandering the world with faces literally as ugly as sin.

* In "The Red Dress", a poor girl who works at a country club named Jamie steals the titular dress to impress a cute rich guy at the club dance, but she stole it from a blind witch who magically stalks her warning her that she'll pay for stealing from her. In the end, the witch gets compensation by ''ripping out Jamie's eyes'' to steal her sight and giving the girl her blind dead eyes in return, with the story ending as Jamie screams in horror and the witch placing the protagonist's glasses in her store cabinet as a trophy.

* From ''Uncle Howee'', Uncle Howee transforms Jared into a full body marionette who is introduced as a "new friend" on the show, all while Cynthia, his sister, giggles at the new edition to her favorite TV show. Consider the mother--who was just gone to do work and has no idea what was happening at the time--it makes you wonder the full extent of Uncle Howee's powers. Also, the fact that we don't know who or what Uncle Howee is (a demon, a RealityWarper, a living cartoon character, the ghost of a long-dead children's entertainer whose spirit lives on because his show has been rerunning for years and the love and devotion of kids who watch his show keep his spirit alive, or an ordinary human with extraordinary powers are the most common conclusions to draw). All we know is that he has omnipotent powers, can interact with viewers, can slip between the TV world and the real world, can appear in many places at once, and turn people into characters that would be at home on his show. The fact that the episode ends with Cynthia cheerfully pointing out that Jared's now starring in her favorite show and her laughing in glee.

* Human Lilly D in "Really You" is the very epitome of a CreepyChild. Her voice, her TroublingUnchildlikeBehavior... Bailee Madison should've won some kind of award, because she sold the hell out of that performance. Also, Lily's slow transformation into a plastic doll is rather horrifying, as for the majority of it, Lily is fully aware of what's happening to her, to the point that the last part of her to transform is one of her eyes, which can be seen darting around the room in a panic. As she transforms, she dashes for the door, trying to alert her mom, but her hands turn just in time to prevent her from turning the knob. After Human Lilly D throws Doll Lilly in the trash bin, you actually hear the doll crying "Nooooo!", invoking the AndIMustScream factor.

** Lilly D as a doll is no slouch in the nightmare fuel department either. From her destructive pranks to framing her human counterpart, to somehow forcibly switching bodies with her, and even casually readjusting her head after Brandon unscrews it and puts it back incorrectly, Lilly D made a truly bizarre impression with this two part pilot. In "The Return of Lilly D", she becomes a full blown {{Yandere}} towards Natalie, and attempts murder on a baby bird and Natalie's grandfather, to keep Natalie's love all to herself. Throughout "Really You" and "The Return of Lilly D" she makes numerous [[NightmareFace nightmare faces]] that make her look disturbingly more human than she already does, all thanks to being a living life sized plastic doll with zero facial expression.

* "Sick": The idea of a little boy trapped with an unseen EldritchAbomination, and the government being willing to sacrifice ''him'' and gas his whole house just to kill it. And the final scene where the boy wakes up and thinks it was AllJustADream... Until the morning-news show hosts come back suddenly on TV (again) and tell him that--''nope'', ''[[SubvertedTrope this is not a dream]]'' and the government really is gonna explode his whole house and ''everyone'' in it. The last thing the boy sees and ''hears'' before getting killed is a bright white light and a loud flat-line noise. Easily one of the most unsettling parts of that episode is when Alex is watching the television and the newscaster switches from casual banter to speaking to Alex without missing a beat. It's MoodWhiplash at its most chilling.

* Human Lilly D in "Really You" is the very epitome of a CreepyChild. Her voice, her TroublingUnchildlikeBehavior... Bailee Madison should've won some kind of award, because she sold the hell out of that performance. Also, Lily's slow transformation into a plastic doll is rather horrifying, as for the majority of it, Lily is fully aware of what's happening to her, to the point that the last part of her to transform is one of her eyes, which can be seen darting around the room in a panic. As she transforms, she dashes for the door, trying to alert her mom, but her hands turn just in time to prevent her from turning the knob.

After Human Lilly D throws Doll Lilly in the trash bin, you actually hear the doll crying "Nooooo!", invoking the AndIMustScream factor.

* Cassandra Hobbes in "Headshot" (A modern retelling of The Picture Of Dorian Gray) is the Devil. But that's not the scary part. Cassandra did nothing to Gracie to turn her into a bully. Gracie was always one and she didn't need Cassandra to help her. ''Gracie'' disobeyed her mother. ''Gracie'' cheated on the test. ''Gracie'' framed Dylan and got him suspended. ''Gracie'' sent her Flynn to the hospital after poisoning her with Red Dye #3 (which she is allergic to). ''Gracie'' told Lexi, her remaining friend to leave and not come back. She was simply pretending to be a shrinking violet to get friends. All Cassandra did was reveal who Gracie really was on the inside just by offering her the chance to become famous, and she's done this to many other girls. It really makes you wonder just how cruel your friends really are and how many girls are out there wandering the world with faces literally as ugly as sin.
