As many other EyeTropes have proven, messing with the eyes in any way is a sure-fire way to attract a few cocked eyebrows. Eyestalks tend to be very long and tentacle-like, and given the association between tentacles and [[EldritchAbomination Eldritch Abominations]], it's no surprise that sticking some eyes on top of them would have that effect. In rare cases, the eyes ''are'' the stalks, or stalk shaped. It certainly helps that eyestalks in RealLife are associated with such 'icky' creatures as Slugs and Crabs. If a monster or a character has eyestalks and ''isn't'' antagonistic in some way, odds are they're CreepyGood, or at least quirky. Of course, some may just consider them UglyCute.
