-->'''Irmgard:''' [[{{Sadist}} Drowning is so peaceful...]]\\
'''Lane:''' Indeed, sweet Irmgard.

* Upon seeing their daughter joining our heroes against Klax Corp, Irmgard lets out an almost inhuman shriek, and [[MoralEventHorizon demands that they carry out with the demolition with her in the crossfire anyway.]]

* Kat's time in the Redemption Chamber is meant to break the hold on her that her Hell Maiden hand has, but it also means facing her past, this time rendered in spooky shadows and green lighting, the kind of thing one would expect from the likes of Selick. Aside from her parents' deaths, she was sent to a clearly greedy OrphanageOfFear. But the real scary part is what got her in Juvie in the first place. It was when she pushed a bully down a long flight of stairs, severely hurting or [[FridgeHorror maybe even killing him.]] And then, all of her insecurities and rage turn into a towering borderline - MechanicalAbomination wreathed in chains and made with the orphanage as a base, the car with her parents as the torso, a prison gate for a mouth, and her Cyclops boom box as the head. Then it starts beating itself up, symbolizing the sheer self-loathing Kat has.

* The full scope of the Klaxons' true intentions in regards to their prison, as Siobhan deduces. Basically, Rust Bank gets bulldozed (and as we learn later, flooded with unused brew first), the prison gets built, the school is rigged so that troubled youths have no chance at rehabilitation, and they're all crammed into what the Klaxons are quite excited to make into a HellholePrison they'll be forced to stay in forever. [[CorruptCorporateExecutive All in the name of profit]]. Needless to say, their daughter is horrified by all of this, as should anyone in the know now.

* Even Wendell and Wild can be quite menacing while in demon mode, complete with [[GlowingEyesOfDoom glowing eyes]] and [[VoiceOfTheLegion creepy deep voices]]. First time is when they threaten to kill Father Best after thinking he won't pay for their dream faire. Second time is when they caught Raul using the hair cream on Kat's parents. Even Belzer sensed that something's wrong up there. {{Not So Harmless Villain}}s indeed.

** Really, this whole thing reads as a damning commentary on the mere concept of private prisons. The notion that one can make hundreds of bucks based on how many prisoners are in jail instead of how many get rehabilitated is scary for just how depressingly real it is.

** First, souls are carried to there by Soul Jockeys (already some gnarly-looking crow/harpy demons), and [[EatenAlive into Belzer's mouth]]. After an unsettling trip through his body, they're thrust onto one of the many rides.

* Father Best immediately pukes gallons of water upon being brought BackFromTheDead by Wendell and Wild. While it's mostly PlayedForLaughs, it's still unsettling. But nowhere near as unsettling as what Best now looks like. Irmgard hit him so hard in the back his spine dislocated, and now he looks like a pale-skinned hunchback.

** And throughout it all, Belzer is laughing it up while his sons toil away while regrowing his hair.

This is what happens when you get the horrific geniuses that brought to life such creatures as [[WesternAnimation/{{Coraline}} The Other Mother]] and [[Film/{{Us}} The Tethered]] together. You get a film with equal parts laughs and dread.

** When he rises, his Scream Faire is destroyed, sending all of the souls into the water below to get attacked by the now loose electric eels.

* Lord Buffalo Belzar's Scream Faire. It's an AmusementParkOfDoom for the souls of the damned located on his enormous belly, and befitting such a Hellish place, it's as dementedly horrifying as it is darkly humorous.
** First, souls are carried to there by Soul Jockeys (already some gnarly-looking crow/harpy demons), and [[EatenAlive into Belzar's mouth]]. After an unsettling trip through his body, they're thrust onto one of the many rides.

** The swing ride goes so fast some souls are sent flying over Belzar's head.
** And throughout it all, Belzar is laughing it up while his sons toil away while regrowing his hair.

* Belzar interrogating the Soul Jockeys who helped his sons get to the Land of the Living. At first, he seems to let them off the hook...then he crushes them all. It just shows how FauxAffablyEvil he can be.

* Once Buffalo Belzar finds out where his sons are, he wastes no time coming up the Land of the Living and destroying half of the cemetery just by rising out of the ground. His first line on Earth doesn't help matters for our heroes.
