* If you die in any game other than your own, you're '''[[CessationOfExistence gone]]]'''. Your home game will suddenly be without a major character. If you are the hero or the villain, (i.e. the center of the entire game), that's a quick ticket to "OUT OF ORDER" for the game. Ralph's wanderlust could have doomed his entire home game, especially if he had managed to get himself (or Felix) killed.

** The bright colors of the Cy-Bugs that almost overrun ''Sugar Rush'' [[BrightIsNotGood made them look creepier]], which is pretty close to real life: Bright colors for some mollusks, arthropods, reptiles, and others usually means they're poisonous.

*** Turbo trying to beat Vanellope is even more horrifying considering that they're supposed to be lovable characters in family-friendly racing games. Just imagine the characters from, say, ''Mario Kart'' doing this. Thank goodness no child was playing Sugar Rush at the time, because that would probably scar them for life.

It's not surprising some scary bits are gonna get covered. Why? Well, let's see... it's directed by [[NightmareFuel/TheSimpsons Rich]] [[NightmareFuel/{{Futurama}} Moore]], it's a NightmareFuel/{{Disney}} movie, and it's about NightmareFuel/VideoGames. Oh, the potential.

potential, not to mention [[VileVillainSaccharineShow one of the most monstrously evil villains in animated film history]] as the [[BigBad main antagonist]].

----> After all, Taxi Driver doesn't include a scene in which a helpless, panicking little girl is about to be eaten by giant insects while the villain grabs the hero by the hair and forces him to watch, saying, "Let's watch her die together, shall we?" We're trying to imagine Scorsese going over that scene with the Taxi Driver cast, and Harvey Keitel saying, "Jesus, Marty, can we change that? This shit will give people nightmares."

* Although this scene is unanmiously considered to be a massive Tearjerker, but Ralph smashing Vanellope's kart into pieces can actually double as NightmareFuel. Think about it: Vanellope can clearly see Ralph using his brute strength and menacing posture to crush the kart, which would definitely be severely unsettling and horrific for any kid to watch (it's comparable to seeing a masked burglar attempting to break into your home). And not only that, Ralph is showing off the very job he had been doing as the bad guy for the past 30 years right in front of Vanellope's very eyes, which she wasn't familiar with whatsoever.

** Turbo's appearance as the [[OneWingedAngel King]] [[AnimalisticAbomination Cy-bug.]] There's also the very idea that he is insane and resolute enough to pull one up on the cy-bug assimilating him and assimilate IT instead. As he said, his new form is unstoppable and he can take over any and all games as he wants.

** Turbo's death by incineration is bad enough, but when he finally dies, notice how ''he does not stop screaming in fear until he is completely gone.'' The fact that he knows he is flying straight into the boiling Coke geyser and is [[TheMindIsAPlaythingOfTheBody helpless to stop himself from doing so]] doesn't help.

Cy-bugs are plenty scary, but I personally found the idea of Venellope dying with the world in Candy's Imagine Spot to be the darkest and most frightening part of the movie and I'm sure plenty of people will agree with me.
