19	* In the cartoon "His bitter half", the female duck that Daffy marries is downright abusive! Her bratty sociopathic son is much worse, Wentworth almost tries to kill Daffy with fireworks and his mother who is just as bad, look the other way and doesn't seem to care that her son is sociopathic. In some off camera scenes Daffy's wife beats him to death!
20	* Porky Pig's [[EarlyInstallmentCharacterDesignDifference original big-eyed design]] in the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aNEd0_rm6kU first version of the "That's all, folks!" drum ending]]. The large round eyes with large pupils in comparison to the smaller, iconic oval eyes [[UnintentionalUncannyValley give off an offputting vibe]].
21	* In ''WesternAnimation/DaffyDuckAndEgghead'' (an otherwise funny cartoon), the scene during the beginning when Egghead shoots a silhouetted audience member for distracting him, especially the realistic way said audience member struggles and clutches his chest before falling to the floor.
22	* "WesternAnimation/NowHearThis" is a NoDialogueEpisode set in a surreal landscape that's apparently a minimalist version of London. It involves a British gentleman getting into all manner of at-times-creepy weirdness upon finding an apparently cursed ear trumpet. Strangely behaved shapes appear inexplicably, accompanied by discordant noises, and at one point the poor bloke is plunged into darkness while being menaced by dozens of mean, staring eyes and floating text reading "PUNK" and "WISE GUY" and some mocking laughter. After abandoning the device in favor of his old one, we promptly find it was ''Satan's horn''.
23	* ''WesternAnimation/TheCaseOfTheStutteringPig'', with its gloating, sadistic villain Lawyer Goodwill, whose horrifying looks are only matched by his gruesome plans for the pig inheritors.
24	* ''Satan's Waitin''', in which Sylvester falls from a building, dies and ''literally goes to hell'' just for doing what cats do, e.g. chasing Tweety Bird. And since he has eight lives left to spare, he tries to make good use of them which means this happens over and over.
25	* ''"WesternAnimation/TheBigSnooze"'' is the most blatant and invoked example. It has Bugs Bunny invading one of Elmer Fudd's dreams and infecting it with some Nightmare Fuel, specifically plenty of surreal and gaudy imagery that can feel threatening when not ridiculous.
26	* In ''"WesternAnimation/ChowHound"'', a bullying dog frequently berates his cat and mouse henchmen for forgetting the gravy on his meat. But when the dog is morbidly obese and immobile from eating too much meat, the cat and mouse show up to force-feed him a large can full of gravy via funnel, all while the dog weakly pleads for them not to. Although, [[AssholeVictim the dog really had it coming.]]
27	-->'''Cat:''' This time, we ''didn't'' forget the gravy.
28	* Just about EVERYTHING in "WesternAnimation/LifeWithFeathers". It is about a bird who has had a falling out with his wife, and he gets into a depression. He has many failed [[SpurnedIntoSuicide suicide attempts]] when trying to get Sylvester. Sylvester won't eat him because he thinks the bird is poisoned. Even worse is that the bird tries to get killed again at the end.
29	* ''"WesternAnimation/PorkyInWackyland"'' can be a little ''too'' bizarre for some. Largely thanks to the very bizarre creatures that inhabit it even by those shorts standards. They don't even appear threatening but their looks come across as inherently wrong on their own and some of them look more humanoid and thus uncannier than others.
30	* ''Porky In Egypt'' (1938): [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9NIuGkSikOU In this scene]], Porky's camel Humpty Bumpty starts to hallucinate while in the desert heat. Creepiest scene is when he imagines a caravan of camels sidestepping behind each other at the horizon while mysterious music plays.
31	* ''Box Office Bunny'' ends with Daffy and Elmer getting trapped in a ''Franchise/FridayThe13th'' parody. It’s played as karmic justice, but seeing the pair banging on the screen and screaming to be let out is horrifying. Bugs watching them in the auditorium and cracking a joke at their expense doesn’t help.
32	** To add to that, the “That’s All, Folks” end card has a unique variant in which [[LastNoteNightmare Daffy and Elmer burst out of it, still screaming]]. It'll catch you off guard every time.
33	* ''WesternAnimation/InvasionOfTheBunnySnatchers'', while being a modern-day favorite, never fails to give viewers the creeps. ''Especially'' the doppelgangers.
34	** The Porky Pig one is the creepiest of them all, as you don't expect him to appear. He looks like an unholy pastiche of Porky designed by Creator/TerryGilliam, with big small-pupiled eyes and very jerky movement. In fact, he looks so creepy that he puts the big-eyed Porky mentioned above to shame. Thankfully, Bugs manages to send him away and puts the real Porky in the drum, but that Porky clone will still enact fear from viewers.
35	** Daffy: "[[SynchroVox But now it's all over. It doesn't matter anymore.]]"
36	** To elaborate: the cartoon begins with Bugs dealing with Elmer Fudd, Yosemite Sam, and Daffy Duck with his typical antics. As he moves from location to location, he notices strange alien carrots at each spot, but ignores them. The next day, Elmer, Sam, and Daffy have been replaced with [[GettingSmiliesPaintedOnYourSoul pale, badly-drawn versions who talk about joy]] while [[BrokenRecord endlessly spouting their catchphrases]]. All three try to force the alien carrots on Bugs, and when he finally takes one, it [[Film/InvasionOfTheBodySnatchers explodes to reveal a poorly-animated Bugs]] who wants to replace the real one. Fake!Bugs proceeds to ''take a fire ax and try to kill Bugs'', who goes running like crazy. To save the day, Bugs has to capture the three clones, who by now have devolved into utter morons that [[EverybodyDoTheEndlessLoop move in the same way repeatedly]]. While the entire thing reads as a comedic, parodic take on how LighterAndSofter "nice" cartoons are in danger of taking over classics to become [[MoneyDearBoy more marketable to kids]], yet at the same time, it is downright ''terrifying''.
37	* While "WesternAnimation/HareTonic" is just your typical light-hearted Bugs Bunny cartoon, the ending somewhat manages to be a bit creepy. As Elmer Fudd chases Bugs out of his house with a rifle, Bugs stops him dead in his tracks to show him that the audience has somehow gotten infected by the "Rabbititis" disease, freaking out Elmer to the point that the poor guy retreats into his house. Of course, it's just another trick played by Bugs, but as if him deceiving Elmer wasn't enough, he then tells the audience that if they had "Rabbititis", they'd see red and yellow spots, which promptly show up on the screen around Bugs as the music starts to build up. Bugs then says that the dots would swirl around, which they do, and last but not least, he says that everything would go black. Immediately after Bugs says that, the screen does just that as the music comes to a dramatic finish, and finally, we hear Bugs laughing in the background.
38	* While the 1954 cartoon "Lumber Jack-Rabbit" is completely comedic and light-hearted like most shorts, the same cannot be said for the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4tf939p_Hlo slightly-tweaked "Warner Bros. Pictures, Inc. present" logo at the start]], where the shield zooms farther than usual and ''almost engulfs the entire screen!'' Worse, the twanging noise is tweaked as well to sound more horrifying! The cartoon was originally screened in 3D... would that make this effect better or worse?
39	** As if that wasn't bad enough, one Website/YouTube user named Dyron Williams made a now private video where he took the clip of the variant and made it worse, editing it to make the shield actually [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yEF86hQ5tog zoom so close to the screen that it covers up the background]]!
40	*** On a positive note, the renditions of the 2003-2004 shorts, the CGI [[Creator/ReelFXCreativeStudios Reel FX]] shorts and ''WesternAnimation/TheLooneyTunesShow'' are much tamer in comparison to the original.
41	** Paul Bunyan's dog Smidgen, nearly [[SwallowedWhole swallows Bugs Bunny alive]], and it appears Bugs has finally met his match as Smidgen is gigantic and there's [[GiantEqualsInvincible nothing he can do to fight back]]. As Smidgen picks his teeth, however, Bugs comes out unharmed on the top of the toothpick.
42	* The jester that walks in at the end of ''Those Beautiful Dames'' to say the usual closing line is rather scary-looking; he has this angry scowl-smile on his face as he says the line.
43	** Thankfully, future ''Merrie Melodies'' after this one used a different, much friendlier-looking jester instead.
44	* ''Awful Orphan'': When Porky Pig finally gives in and lets Charlie the Dog stay, Charlie changes his mind and decides to leave because of Porky always fighting with his neighbors, but then [[RageBreakingPoint Porky begins laughing evilly]] and ominously tells Charlie, "You're gonna stay alright! I'm gettin' to like you!" and walks towards Charlie with a SlasherSmile showing that he hasn't given in only to Charlie [[SanitySlippage but to insanity as well]].
45	* ''WesternAnimation/DuckAmuck'' has a tame moment. When Daffy demands a close-up, the camera suddenly zooms in quickly on his face until it has taken up a huge portion of the screen, complete with visible veins in Daffy's eyes and a dramatic music cue as the camera zooms. He then steps away from the camera, muttering [[SarcasmMode "Thanks for the sour persimmons, cousin."]]
46	** Most of the cartoon straddles the line between NF and hilarity, especially when the [[DerangedAnimation deranged animator]] alters Daffy's body and surroundings on the fly. It's like a somewhat family-friendly version of ''Literature/IHaveNoMouthAndIMustScream'' (and indeed, the animator cuts out the sound at one point!). Daffy shouting "[[RageAgainstTheHeavens WHO]] ARE [[RageAgainstTheAuthor YOU?!?]]" in anguish at the end may be the most existential moment in Looney Tunes history.
47	* In ''My Green Fedora'', we get a ''VERY'' horrifying look into an evil weasel's eyes as he looks at baby rabbit Elmer.
48	* A scene from ''Greedy for Tweety'', in which Sylvester is given sleeping pills and as he opens his eyes as he goes to sleep, Hector the bulldog is [[LightFlickerTeleportation coming closer and closer]] wielding a baseball bat, and Sylvester not being able to move or react because he's doped up on pills. The final shot has him raising the bat and '''''THWACK!'''''
49	* The cartoon "WesternAnimation/{{Pigs Is Pigs\|1937}}", where a gluttonous piglet is force-fed by a mad doctor to the point that he is in clear pain, until he explodes. Luckily, it was AllJustADream.
50	* Foghorn's debut short Walky Talky Hawky ends with him being dragged away by Henry Hawk while bawking and panicking, knowing his fate is sealed.
51	** The end of ''"Leghorn Swoggled"'' instead, has Foghorn Leghorn knocked unconscious (to the sound of a sputtering engine!) and dragged on a toy train into (presumably) Henery Hawk's oven.
52	* The obscure Porky Pig short ''Fish Tales'' (1936, Jack King) is pretty unsettling when you're a kid. For those who haven't seen it, it involves fisherman Porky having a dream about getting caught by a family of talking fish who try to cook him alive in an oven.
53	* ''WesternAnimation/TheDucksters''. When Porky agrees to keep answering questions, a heckler shouts "You'll be ''sorry''!", [[DisproportionateRetribution this causes Daffy to kill whoever said it with a rifle]] and continues the show like nothing happened.
54	** You can actually hear said heckler moaning and collapsing!
55	* ''Draftee Daffy'' has Daffy Duck who ''really'' [[DraftDodging doesn't want to be conscripted]] and face [[WarIsHell the horrors of war]] despite his grandstanding in the first minute, with the genuinely (but possibly [[AccidentalNightmareFuel unintentionally]]) creepy figure of "The Little Man From the Draft Board", a [[NoNameGiven nameless]] government official with odd mannerisms[[note]]Especially when he peeps in Daffy's windows[[/note]] who [[ImplacableMan will go to any lengths to conscript Daffy]].
56	** At the end of the cartoon, Daffy ''dies and goes to Hell'', but is at least happy to have finally and totally [[DraftDodging dodged his draft]]. But then ''Satan himself'' turns out to actually be The Little Man in a LatexPerfection disguise.
57	* In the cartoon short, ''Bye Bye, Bluebeard'' the wolf character, Bluebeard the Killer, tries to kill a helpless Porky Pig with a homemade guillotine and by strapping into a rocket. Then at the end he is tricked into eating bombs, which he mistakes as pop-overs and [[PopGoesTheHuman he's the one who gets blown to kingdom come]].
58	* The nightmare sequence from ''Fresh Airedale''. The [[MadnessMantra "Number one dog. Number one dog. Number one dog"]] and the DerangedAnimation do a great job at demonstrating the SanitySlippage of the main character.
59	* Bugs Bunny and the gremlin come close to dying in a plane crash at the end of "WesternAnimation/FallingHare". Thankfully, the plane runs out of gas and remains suspended just a few inches away from the ground, but still, a plane crash is fatal for the most part.
60	* The ending of ''Dr. Devil and Mr. Hare'' was the most disturbing for any WesternAnimation/BugsBunny cartoon as his FrankensteinsMonster-like robot he created to beat up Taz then turns on him as Bugs wails with genuine terror, "No, no, no, not me, Frankie! Not me, Frankie! No, Frankie, No! No!" After getting [[BattleDiscretionShot a savage off-screen beating]], Bugs hobbles back on camera to ask [[IsThereADoctorInTheHouse if there's a doctor in the house]], which normally would've added some levity, but thanks to Bill Lava's horror movie-esque music (more on that later), it only makes it ''worse''. Compare to the ending in "Half-Fare Hare", which also ends with Bugs taking a beating (he accidentally hits his head and gets a series of [[CranialEruption head bumps]]), but thanks to the goofy music (done by Carl Stalling), it's funny rather than off-putting.
61	* Sylvester's insomnia and ensuing nervous breakdown in ''WesternAnimation/BirdsAnonymous'' demonstrates a little too well the toll that withdrawal from an addiction can have on an addict's psyche and can border on psychological horror.
62	* ''Hyde and Hare'' has Bugs Bunny brought home by Dr. Jekyll, who periodically transforms into a nightmarish green-skinned, messy-haired, [[RedEyesTakeWarning red-eyed]], AxCrazy monster. Bugs doesn't put two and two together that the kindly doctor and insane maniac are one and the same and, thus, constantly tries to save both himself and the doctor by barricading them in a room or arming Jekyll, [[FromBadToWorse to disastrous results.]] Then, to top it all off, Dr. Jekyll notices the container the transformation formula was in is empty and asks if Bugs drank it. Bugs, taken aback by the comment, is so offended at this insinuation that he decides to abandon Jekyll and go back to the park where he came from. Unbeknownst to himself, however, as he does so, Bugs turns into a hairy, green, red-eyed monster himself -- and ''still'' doesn't put two and two together that everyone is running away because of him!
63	-->'''Bugs:''' Now, what's eating them? Huh! You'd think they never saw a rabbit before!
64	* Another similar cartoon, ''Dr. Jerkyl's Hide'', has Sylvester drinking up the formula himself, believing it to be soda pop, and turning into a really terrifying-looking monster cat who [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown senselessly beats]] Alfie (otherwise known as Spike). The second time when he transforms, he chuckles evilly at Alfie's horrified expression before using his fingers to make Alfie's face form a smile, unsheathes his claws, and starts marking Alfie's jaw with dotted lines before the scene cuts to Chester outside of the door hearing what he thinks to be Alfie beating up Sylvester, until Alfie walks out in cross-sections. When asked by Chester if Sylvester hurt him, Alfie answers, "Nah, he just scratched me" before falling apart. Though it also doubles as a SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome for Sylvester since he gets to inflict some sweet payback on Alfie for his treatment of him.
65	* A third Dr. Jekyll influenced episode, ''Hyde and Go Tweet'' has Dr. Jekyll drinking the potion and then turning into Mr. Hyde, and Tweety (who is in the room with Sylvester) ends up getting exposed to the potion as well, (he hid in the bottle) turning him into this gigantic, frightening, and grotesque figure, which scares the daylights out of Sylvester. At random intervals, however, Tweety reverts back to normal and Sylvester chases after him again. Like Bugs, Sylvester fails to realize that Tweety and the monster he turns into are one and the same, and every time Tweety turns monstrous, Sylvester turns tail and flees. At one point, Sylvester decides to escape from the Tweety monster by ''jumping off the building to his death!'' Then, when Tweety is normal-sized, Sylvester grabs him and locks him in the room with him so he won't escape and the monster won't get in, making sure to throw away the key before making plans to finally eat his prey -- [[DidntThinkThisThrough with disastrous results]]. It all turns out to be a DreamWithinADream, though, but Sylvester thinks it might actually happen at the end and comedically goes berserkers, in which two cats and Tweety himself consider acting strange.
66	* Some of Bill Lava's music from the 1962-1964 period ventures into this, since he produced a far more "modern" (meaning "dissonant") sound than Carl Stalling or Milt Franklyn. As a result of this, some of his scores during this era create an ominous sense of fear. Some examples:
67	** The aforementioned "Bugs gets beat up by the robot" scene in "Dr. Devil and Mr. Hare".
68	** Some moments in "WesternAnimation/MartianThroughGeorgia" when the Martian is on Earth (and especially as he finds himself in a hellish landscape), as well as ending on a LastNoteNightmare in the form of a trilling flute-like sound.
69	** What little music there is in "WesternAnimation/NowHearThis"
70	** The shrill sting after Sylvester is blown up by his own rocket in "WesternAnimation/TheJetCage".
71	** The moment when Sylvester screams during the flashbacks in "Freudy Cat", as well as the music in said flashbacks, consisting of past Sylvester cartoons, which unnaturally mixes Lava's music with Stalling's, coupled with a stock piece by Philip Green, creating a truly overbearing tone.
72	** The title card to "Mad as a Mars Hare" (which could've easily been used for a '50s horror movie without missing a beat).
73	** Yosemite Sam in Hell in "Devil's Feud Cake" (more on that later).
74	** The catapult montage in "WesternAnimation/ToBeepOrNotToBeep" (which almost sounds like a death march).
75	** The establishing shot of WWI-era Germany in "WesternAnimation/DumbPatrol".
76	** Any and all "exotic" music in "[[WesternAnimation/WarAndPieces1964 War and Pieces]]" (such as for the "Secrets of a Harem" peep show (actually a disguised shotgun) and in China where Wile E. Coyote mistakenly winds up and meets a Chinese Road Runner).
77	* ''Good Noose'' easily puts the effect of Bill Lava's music scoring as the first short fully scored by him. The short focuses on a captain and his parrot pal who wants to rope everyone who is stowing away on his ship; with everyone else swimming away for their lives, Daffy Duck still remains on the ship. There is a grotesque shot of Daffy with ''razor-sharp teeth'' after the parrot releases Daffy from a chest. And to top it off, the short ends with the ship exploding, leaving the captain and parrot stranded while Daffy is riding on a barrel next to them, still wearing a noose to await his death on land even if it isn't from being lost in the sea.
78	* The WesternAnimation/WileECoyoteAndTheRoadRunner cartoons directed by Rudy Larriva in 1965-66 often veer into this territory, with their freakishly questionable animation, ominous BackgroundMusic cues by the aforementioned Bill Lava, some freakish OffModel expressions, at times some unusual sound effects, and usage of the fairly creepy "Abstract WB" [[VanityPlate symbol sequences]] (which were ironically originally designed by Chuck Jones for "Now Hear This"). That is, if you can get past the fact that they were mostly a cheap imitation of Chuck Jones's Road Runner cartoons.
79	** A big offender is ''The Solid Tin Coyote'', about Wile E. constructing [[AttackOfThe50FootWhatever a gigantic mechanical coyote]]. Even the PerpetualSmiler Road Runner is actually scared! To make matters worse, with his giant robot, Wile E. actually succeeds in ''capturing the Road Runner!'' Unsurprisingly, however, Wile E.'s success is short-lived; when he commands the robot to eat the Road Runner, it eats ''Wile E.'' instead.
80	* ''WesternAnimation/TheBlowOut'' in and of itself is one of Creator/TexAvery's most unnerving and frightening cartoons. In it, a MadBomber who cackles like [[Film/{{TheWizardOfOz}} The Wicked Witch of the West]] has just gotten away with bombing a bank, and plots to detonate the whole city through something as inconspicuous as an alarm clock. Yes, the short does have a lot of gags that would later be used in Avery's other works like [[WesternAnimation/{{Droopy}} Northwest Hounded Police]] but the thing is, the bomber is far scarier than the wolf character from those cartoons could ever HOPE to be. Heck, he may be the scariest ''Looney Tunes'' villain ever.
81	* ''WesternAnimation/ScaredyCat'' isn't particularly scary, as most of the stuff [[TheWoobie Sylvester]] goes through falls into the {{Amusing Injuries}} category ("And just ''what'' were you planning to do with that anvil?"). But there were two genuinely frightening parts: the first cat being led on the death march, which - of course - Porky doesn't notice (until he's on the receiving end, that is). Especially since [[KilledOffForReal we never see the cat again after the first scene]]. Then, Sylvester gets pulled downstairs and emerges [[ColorFailure white as a sheet]] and [[NothingIsScarier visibly shaken]]. [[FridgeHorror What the hell did the mice do to him?!]]
82	** And - more on the scary side of things, Sylvester [[DrivenToSuicide threatening to shoot himself]] when Porky doesn't believe him. However, this scene is usually, if always, edited on TV (at least in the States).
83	** Its sequel short ''Claws For Alarm'' is even worse. While the mice in the first short were psychotic, it's at least [[NightmareRetardant negated by them being goofy Hubie and Bertie lookalikes]]. The ones in this short are far more sinister and vicious looking with [[DeathGlare no sense of mischief in their expressions]]. Even worse, when it seems Sylvester has finally escaped them and driven away, the hatches of the car start sporting dozens of angry demonic eyes gazing at him.
84	* Yosemite Sam's slow descent into Hell in "Devil's Feud Cake", certainly not helped by the shrill descending music by Bill Lava, or the eerie change of scenery.
85	** Also the ending: After repeatedly failing to catch Bugs, Sam decides to stay in Hell and laughs maniacally in a devil costume. Yeah, Sam seems happy but... he's still in Hell.
86	* ''The Hypo-Chondri-Cat'' in general, due to its subject matter (mice Hubie and Bertie convincing hypochondriac Claude Cat that he's terminal, and after Claude wakes up from "surgery", they pretend he's ''dead''). Of particular note is the short nightmare sequence in the later part of the cartoon, where haunting music plays over a black background and abstract figures and we hear an echo-y Hubie and Bertie declaring, "We've got to operate!" ''(shudder)''
87	* The early short ''Billboard Frolics'' features a young chick being chased by a sinister looking cat, with a couple uneasy close up shots of it meowing straight up at the camera. Unlike later more cartoony counterparts like Sylvester, this one looks pretty creepy.
88	** At a later point a dog ([[ItMakesSenseInContext incarnated from]] a "[[Creator/HisMastersVoiceRecords His Master's Voice" billboard]]) chases after the cat, but gets trapped inside a pipe with sealable joints. It is not released at any point in the cartoon afterwards.
89	* The climax of the short "Wearing of the Grin" is a bit unnerving, to say the least, with Porky Pig being forced to tap-dance in "the Green Shoes" through a surreal landscape as two leprechauns laugh at his misfortune.
90	* The 1944 cartoon ''Hare Ribbin''' has a surprisingly dark ending, with Bugs tricking the Russian dog pursuing him to kill himself.
91	** The director's cut ending is arguably worse - instead of the dog shooting himself, Bugs ''shoots him at point-blank range!'' This ending was so disturbing that it was banned from theaters and television. Today, however, it can be viewed as a standalone bonus on the fifth volume of the ''Looney Tunes Golden Collection'' line of [=DVDs=].
92	* So much of ''Attack of the Drones''. The short is PlayedForLaughs, but still rather disturbing. For example...
93	** Near the beginning of the short, one of the invading aliens devours an astronaut's front half.
94	** The scene where Daffy tells the drones that they're free to do whatever they want and they promptly go on a rampage. Three of them even beat up a sentient ATM machine!
95	** One drone sets fire to a trash can... And it's promptly revealed that the trash can is also sentient and it runs around screaming.
96	** Daffy getting blasted in half, impaled by a lightsaber and having his front half eroded. ''Ouch.''
97	** And then there's the ending. Daffy lures the drones into a trap with fake awards and then opens a trapdoor under their feet, sending them into a shredding machine. He thinks that he's finally destroyed all one hundred of them... Only to find out that the drones found the copy machine that he used to make them in the first place, and now they're making more. The copy machine, and the building that it's in, then overflows with drones and explodes, unleashing drones into the city. We end with Daffy clinging to the top of a building as the drones snap at him from below.
98	* Even in 1944, a dollar was chump change--and in ''WesternAnimation/CoalBlackAndDeSebbenDwarfs'' it's TOP PRICE for hit men! Life is cheap indeed under the Mean Old Queen. Plus, WartimeCartoon or no, the fact that hits on Japanese people are free of charge is even more terrifying.
99	* The self-aware Dr. Moron from ''Water, Water Every Hare'' stands out among the rest of Bugs Bunny's adversaries by preferring the direct approach, he simply throws his axe at the hare's head giving him just a split-second to duck in fear and avoid getting butchered.
100	* "Porky's Bear Facts" is a ''Looney Tunes'' version of ''The Ant and The Grasshopper''. Porky and his dog work all Autumn to get some food in the house but his neighbor, the bear, is lazy and doesn't work at all. When Winter comes, Porky has plenty of food, but his neighbor has none. When the bear and his dog try to eat the last bean, a mouse ate it, causing the bear to burst into tears. The bear's dog tells the viewers that he wouldn't be surprised if his owner would try to eat him, then sees the bear looking at him with an evil scary look with a knife and fork in his paws, advancing towards as the dog backs away in fear and pleads for him not to eat him! Luckily, they pass by Porky's house and Porky's willing to share his food.
101	* ''The Fair-Haired Hare'': The moment after Yosemite Sam realizes that he drank the poisoned juice. He rockets up and into the distance. You'd think that would be the end of the gag, but then you see him seconds later sprinting back to the house in a way only a cartoon could. His eyes shoot daggers and it's so abrupt that Bugs is frightened enough to make a run for it and escape that would-be killer.
102	* ''Bugs Bunny's Howl-oween Special'' is fine for the most part, but at the very end of the special, after tasting the stew and commenting that it needs salt, Bugs then makes a pretty... unnerving grin. Skip to 8:20 of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pSj-f5agLwM this video]] to see it.
103	* "WesternAnimation/HareWayToTheStars" ends with Bugs accidentally unleashing an alien invasion on Earth!
104	-->'''Bugs:''' [[BreakingTheFourthWall Run for the hills, folks, or you'll be up to your armpits in Martians!]]
105	* How Foghorn disposes of the rival rooster in Cock-A-Doodle-Duel - he tricks him into eating a bunch of corn, then shoots a lump of hot coal down his throat while he's crowing, resulting in all of the corn inside the rival rooster's stomach popping before he actually EXPLODES! This is then mitigated by the rival rooster's legs, which are all that remain of him, walking off into the distance in defeat.
106	* The dramatic denouement to ''What's Opera, Doc?''. Elmer Fudd actually manages to ''kill'' Bugs Bunny.
107	-->'''Bugs:''' ''[[DisneyDeath (coming to)]]'' [[BreakingTheFourthWall Well, what did you expect in an opera? A]] ''[[BreakingTheFourthWall happy]]'' [[BreakingTheFourthWall ending?]]
108	** The beginning of this cartoon seems like a ShoutOut to the "Night on Bald Mountain" sequence from ''WesternAnimation/{{Fantasia}}''.
109	** That terrifying brief moment after Elmer realizes his "twue love" is Bugs in disguise and loses it: Bugs runs away into the darkness of deformed canyon walls, the music turns ominous, the background turns red and Fudd finally gets his helmet unstuck to scream, "I'LL KILL THE WABBIT!" with a berserker rage that would scare many. Elmer then climbs a cliff with a look of sadistic glee on his face and starts calling forth the forces of nature (and smog) his voice rising until he's practically screaming. The lightning bolt he brings down ''splits'' a mountain in half!
110	--->"Awise, stowm! Norf winds, blow! Souf winds, blow! Typhoons, hurricanes, earthquakes! SMMMMOOOOOOOOOGGGGGG!!!!"
111	** This may be the one and only time his hatred towards Bugs was played completely straight, without even a hint of humor.
112	* The climax of ''The Scarlet Pumpernickel'' is legitimately terrifying. The way the Grand Duke (Sylvester) creeps upon Melissa in the tower, intentions clearly vile with his EvilLaugh increasing in volume every step he takes. The poor duck scared out of her mind calling for the Scarlet Pumpernickel.
