* [[http://www.drowtales.com/mainarchive.php?order=chapters&id=343 Ariel,]] in ''Webcomic/{{Drowtales}}'' gets covered in blood after she's forced to kill [[spoiler:Miir'kin Vel'Vlozress]] [[DropTheHammer quite gruesomely]] as part a SadisticChoice, the other choice being to kill her cousin and one of her few allies. She's clearly in shock for several pages after this.

* ''Manga/YuruYuri'': [[ParodiedTrope Parodied]] in "Warm Slumber Party With Everyone". Chitose Ikeda [[ShippingGoggles ships her two friends Ayano and Kyouko]], to the point where she gets explosive nosebleeds whenever she imagines them having a yuri moment. Chitose also turns into a lecherous "kiss monster" whenever she eats chocolate. After she gets into the brown stuff and gets frisky with the other girls, Kyouko and Ayano decide to distract her from her rampage by kissing ''for real''. We then cut to two character who left to fetch some blankets. As soon as they walk in, a ScareChord plays and we see ''gallons'' of Chitose's blood splattered all over the room and the other girls, who are so shocked they can only stand around in a catatonic state.

* Occurs at the end of the music video for Music/PearlJam's "Jeremy", when the title character [[spoiler:blows his brains out in front of his class]].

* ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'', "[[Recap/BuffyTheVampireSlayerS6E19SeeingRed Seeing Red]]". "Your shirt..." To explain: [[spoiler:When Tara is fatally struck by a stray bullet, her [[TooGoodForThisSinfulEarth only concern]] is for Willow's ruined, blood-splattered shirt.]]

* ''{{LightNovel/Durarara}}'': This seems to happen to Anri an awful lot.

* ''LightNovel/KyoKaraMaoh'': Yuuri when [[spoiler:Saralegui gets shot with an arrow.]]

* Probably the closest that the ''viewing audience'' has come to being the innocent in a film is a scene in ''Film/{{Quarantine}}'' where the main character's camera man uses the lens of the InUniverseCamera to beat back an attacker, causing the screen to become covered in blood.

->'''The Medic''': Did all this blood come from your eyebrow and your head?\\
'''Captain Phillips''': No, not all of it. That’s not mine!

* ''{{Series/Dollhouse}}'':

* In ''VideoGame/TheWalkingDead'', Lilly gets covered in [[spoiler: her father's]] blood after his head is smashed in with a salt lick.
* In ''VideoGame/BioshockInfinite'', Elizabeth is covered in blood after [[spoiler:stabbing Daisy Fitzroy]].

* ''LightNovel/HaruhiSuzumiya'':
** ''Haruhi Suzumiya'' subverts this. Yuki is busy protecting Kyon from Ryoko, and she gets hit with half a dozen steel spikes. Ryoko then impales her with 2 tentacles, ripping through her chest cavity. We see Kyon's face splattered with Yuki's blood. She gets better though.
** In the movie, though, this happens perfectly. [[spoiler:After Yuki turns herself and the world around her into normals, Kyon is sent back to fix everything. Just as he is about to, Ryoko stabs him in the back out of nowhere and pulls the knife out, splattering the now-normal+innocent Yuki with blood.]] Her expression is sad for the audience, but the whole situation would be a severe case of horror for the [[spoiler:now-normal Yuki.]]

* Played for laughs in [[http://sluggy.com/daily.php?date=040628 this]] ''Webcomic/SluggyFreelance'' strip.
* Mikaila Adelier of ''Webcomic/{{Unsounded}}'' is splattered with her father's blood as he attempts to defend her [[spoiler: he failed.]].
* Played for dark comedy in [[https://pbfcomics.com/comics/an-end-to-gopher-trouble/ this]] ''[[ComicStrip/ThePerryBibleFellowship Perry Bible Fellowship]]'' comic.
* [[http://keychain.patternspider.net/archive/koc0008.html An aversion]] is played for laughs in ''Webcomic/KeychainOfCreation''--we never actually ''see'' Misho covered in blood, as the comic cuts straight from the cause of splattering to Marena finishing washing him.
* In ''Webcomic/TheWaterPhoenixKing'', this is subverted [[strike: for laughs]] as everyone who wasn't there ''thinks'' Anthem is this, instead of a combination of [[TheBerserker the adrenaline having worn off]] and her EmotionlessGirl shell (itself [[SoleSurvivor partly attributable to prior PTSD]]) finally cracking.

* In ''Webcomic/HeIsAGoodBoy'', when Crange's tree (which, like Crange himself, inexplicably has organs) is cut down by a lumberjack, there's one panel where Crange is covered in a blanket of blood.
* In ''Webcomic/GrrlPower'', [[https://grrlpowercomic.com/archives/comic/grrl-power-912-maximum-trauma/ Sydney/Halo ends up covered in gore]], after Cora rescues her from a kidnap attempt... By shooting the gang leader with alien ordinance that turns him into LudicrousGibs.

* ''Series/Titans2018''. A variation when Beast Boy makes his first kill as a tiger, and goes on a HeroicBSoD after reverting to his human form covered in his victim's blood.
