9%% * With all the BlackComedy, there are a lot of examples. Some popular ones are [[http://www.explosm.net/comics/1956/ here]], [[http://explosm.net/comics/903/ here]], [[http://www.explosm.net/comics/1067/ here]] [[http://www.explosm.net/comics/2294/ and here]].
10%% * [[http://explosm.net/comics/2202/ This one]], while more humorous, is equally [[FacialHorror unnerving]].
11%% * The final panel from [[http://www.explosm.net/comics/2822/ this strip.]] The usage of NonstandardCharacterDesign is what makes it particularly jarring.
12* [[http://www.explosm.net/comics/3103/ Two women argue who's uglier]], but turns out that at the last panel, a black-haired woman skinned the brunette woman's face.
13* [[http://www.explosm.net/comics/1118/ This comic]], which involves a character doing a horrifying impression of an insomniac.
14%% * The last panel of [[http://explosm.net/comics/2927/ this thing]] is like something out of [[TomeOfEldritchLore The Necronomicon]].
15%% * [[http://explosm.net/comics/3228/ Two Heads are better than one.]]
16%% * [[http://explosm.net/comics/3219/ I miss your face...literally.]]
17* The [[NightmareSequence strange hallucination/nightmare]] that Larry has in "It's a Sad Christmas, Larry" depicting a horrific car crash. Made even scarier when you realize that the car crash was the reason that Larry's dad had been in the hospital for the episode. He doesn't get better.
18* [[http://explosm.net/comics/2589/ A kid wants to be Ed Gein for Halloween.]] Of course, his mother and him are both still alive, unhurt and actually happy with their costumes and the guy's reaction implies that this is a normal thing, but ''still!''
19%% * The best way to cure hiccups is to [[http://explosm.net/comics/4008/ scare them away.]]
20%% * [[http://explosm.net/comics/4352/ This face]], especially if you don't realize there's a caption.
21%% * "[[http://explosm.net/comics/4451/ What a lazy costume]]. It's not even scary!" "Look [[NightmareFace closer.]]"
22%% * [[http://explosm.net/comics/4086/ "I HAD A BAD DREAM"]]
23%% * "[[http://www.explosm.net/comics/2564/ Aw, dude. Not cool.]]"
24%% * [[http://explosm.net/comics/2141/ This comic]] but it was a mashup between ''Film/{{Candyman}}'' and Music/ChristinaAguilera’s hit single, Candyman.
25%% * [[http://explosm.net/comics/1111/ This comic is about self-vore]].
26%% * [[http://www.explosm.net/comics/1558/ "What if she doesn't have any skin?"]]
27* In [[http://explosm.net/comics/4882/ this comic]], a woman gives her son a ''[[Literature/WheresWally Where’s Waldo?]]'' book, only to discover that the book's artwork is disturbingly {{surreal|Horror}}.
28%% * [[http://explosm.net/comics/4637/ "Please call an ambulance."]]
29* [[http://explosm.net/comics/5008/ Their explanation for why Barney the Dinosaur looks the way he does]] is more hauntingly gruesome than anything you might have imagined.
30* The JumpScare in [[http://explosm.net/comics/5079/ this Halloween strip]]. He's so ugly, everyone hands the camera to him.
31%% * The man-eating EldritchAbomination in [[http://explosm.net/comics/5160/ this strip]].
32* [[https://explosm.net/comics/3786/ This strip.]] Takes a hatred of a mundane thing [[DisproportionateRetribution to the extreme,]] and this isn't even getting into the unexpected gif. files or the ending panel has the character giving a SlasherSmile that [[TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou breaks the fourth wall.]]
