* [[TheBully Scut Farkus]]: When he first shows up, he's [[EvilLaugh laughing maniacally]] and chasing Ralphie, Flick and Schwartz.
** Schwartz's screaming "uncle!" while being tortured is pretty disturbing. It's ''very'' convincingly agonized.
** Just before that freak gets the beatdown from Ralphie, he taunts the latter with faux-crying. The zoom-in on Scut's face while he does that and the shrill noise he makes is just....*shivers*.
* The scary department store Santa going into slow motion, with the music in the background slowing down to match. Aided and abetted by the 1st Person POV fisheye camera shots as Ralphie goes up to see him. We see a distorted and fast view of a very bitter Santa (with lurid red nose) and two mean elves! HO... HO... HO.....
* Schwartz being the victim of [[AbusiveParents quite audible child abuse]] after Ralphie scapegoats him for the fudge incident. This qualifies more as {{Narm}}, though, since, although child abuse is terrifying in reality, the mom sounds like a chicken or a duck as she's screaming. Granted, as funny as her sounds may be, the sheer deranged fury she emits is unsettling, and Ralphie's mother clearly looks appalled as she overhears the beating and Schwartz yowling in pain.
* The expression on Ralphie's face in [[http://cache2.allpostersimages.com/p/LRG/17/1723/RS53D00Z/posters/a-christmas-story.jpg the DVD cover]] for the movie is rather... [[SlasherSmile disturbing]].
* When Flick gets his tongue stuck on the flagpole, Scott Schwartz does a fantastic job at screaming in pain/terror and begging his friends not to abandon him. And then the adults deal with [[TongueOnTheFlagpole the situation]]. When a wet extremity is stuck to a cold surface, what you want to do is pour warm water over it until it can be pulled away safely. [[TongueTrauma This does not happen.]] Flick comes back to class with a mouth full of gauze and a haunted expression.
* Ralphie's fantasy about himself becoming blind from "soap poisoning" from having to put soap in his mouth for accidental cursing, and his parents blaming themselves for it. Though as {{Narm}} as the sobbing is, there is a reason children don't have soap put in their mouths as punishment anymore as children have suffered accidental poisoning and hospitalization in the first place.
