!!''Home Alone 3'':
* Even though Alex managed to defeat the spies, which was awesome considering he is a kid, he still was lucky he survived because these bad guys were not humorous crooks like Harry and Marv. They were wanted by the FBI, and were armed with silencers and weapons. Beaupre in particular ends up being savvy enough to turn the tables on Alex toward the end, and if Alex hadn't found and swapped out his gun earlier that would have been the end of him.
* The lawnmower trap. Granted, you find out that it only gave Jernigan a funny bad haircut, but the lawnmower dropping into him and his screams make it look like something straight from a horror film.
* How Alice left Mrs. Hess to die: Tied up to a chair in front of an open door, leaving her to die of exposure to the cold weather. [[WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids A pretty brutal way to die in a kids' movie.]]

!!''Home Alone 2: Lost in New York'':
* Kevin walking around Central Park at night.
** What makes this scarier is that it actually counts as example of TruthInTelevision: New Yorkers know that Central Park, despite how idyllic it is during the day, becomes a rather unsafe area at night, with an unpleasant amount of drug use, wild animals wandering, and even a tragic amount of rape. An adult wandering around Central Park after dusk is not a pleasant thought, let alone a child. And this was in the early 1990s, around the time its murder rate peaked.
--> '''Harry''': "Grown men come in the Park and don't leave alive."
* Near the end, when Harry and Marv are standing over Kevin, paint all over them looking like ''dried blood'', crazy {{slasher smile}}s...and the line "My, how the tables have turned". ''Brrrr''.
** Harry comes very close to shooting Kevin in Central Park. While the gun did turn out to be jammed, it's still a very unsettling scene of Harry wanting to savor killing a kid. On top of that, the way the gun sort of oozes when he takes it out of his coat isn't exactly a pleasing image.
-->'''Harry:''' I never made it to the sixth grade, kid, and it doesn't look like you're gonna either.
* The OhCrap moment when the now Sticky Bandits see Kevin again. When Harry greets Kevin with a very FauxAffablyEvil "Hiya paaaal!", Kevin turns around and to see the two towering over him with giant {{Slasher Smile}}s.
** And when he rises his hand towards Kevin, revealing the burn in the shape of the doorknob in the first movie.
* Keep in mind that based on some of the comments they made, Harry and Marv intended to kill Kevin from the moment they saw him in front of the toy store - and they probably had something more grisly in mind than just shooting him. Marv, for example, implies that they could drown him, and Harry mentions something about a subway tunnel.
* The Pigeon Lady standing and watching as her pigeons swarm Marv and Harry, ''especially'' when she laughs. There's also when Kevin is ''alone'' with the Pigeon Lady the first time. His ankle gets caught in a branch and he is thrashing to free himself. Even though she ended up being GoodAllAlong, you'd probably be terrified to see anyone covered in birds, not saying anything and appearing to advance on you, especially alone and at night. Plus, you can imagine what would have happened if Kevin had let his fear overcome him and he didn't have her assistance in freeing his ankle.
* The ''electric sink'' booby trap. Marv getting electrocuted and turning into a screaming skeleton for a few seconds was enough to scare the crap out of you.
* The cab driver in the second film. Especially that creepy shadowed face of his. Double points for showing his face directly into the camera.
-->'''Kevin''': It's scary out there!\\
'''Cab driver''': [[ParanoiaFuel It ain't better much in here, kid.]]
* "Watch it, kid! [[EvilLaugh Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!]]"
** Not to mention Kevin walking past a couple of hookers who come onto him. "Hey, lookin' for somebody to read you a bedtime story?"
* The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zdyEXEeinfg first trailer for the movie]] includes a creepy CGI Statue of Liberty that suddenly screams the same way Kevin does in the first movie.
* Each and every one of the concierge's [[SlasherSmile Slasher Smiles]], especially the one when Kevin is trying to get away from Harry and Marv by heading to the hotel, and the camera lingers on his face for a few seconds.
** It doesn't help that he's played by Creator/TimCurry.
* [[DomesticAbuse What we see]] of ''[[ShowWithinAShow Angels with Even Filthier Souls]]'' is ''not'' pretty, even if it's meant to be PlayedForLaughs. Johnny accuses Carlotta of cheating on him, yet there doesn't seem to be any evidence of such. He [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything forces her to get on her knees]] and declare that she loves him, and when her show of forced affection doesn't entertain him, he [[DisproportionateRetribution murders her with his tommy gun]] while LaughingMad.

!!''Home Alone'':
* The intro is actually surprisingly creepy. The image of a lone house, plus John Williams's music, really plays up the image of being alone and paranoid.
* The wreath of the [=McCallister=] residence at the beginning of the movie features a rather mean-looking Santa, with his eyes in shadow ''Manga/FistOfTheNorthStar'' style... and then they zoom in on the thing! Yeesh!
* The furnace's "HELLOOO KEVIIIN!!" Doubles as in-universe NightmareFuel for Kevin.
** Nullified by the fact that Kevin simply tells it to shut up.
** The basement. Kevin goes down to see if any of his family hiding there. Among the objects is a upper part of a female mannequin.
* Marley, another in-universe horror for Kevin, as evidenced by his scream when they run into each other outside Kevin's house. Thankfully, Kevin eventually becomes friends with him.
* Marley is Nightmare Fuel out-of-universe as well. Especially the creepy music that plays every time he shows up, backed with the way he glares at Kevin, until the reveal.
* Buzz's [[SpidersAreScary tarantula]], Harry and Marv to some people, and a few of the booby traps.
* Highlights of the traps: the nail through Marv's foot, the glass ornament stepping, the tarantula, and of course the blow-torch lighting Harry's head on fire.
** When Harry and Marv manage to catch Kevin, they gleefully claim that everything Kevin did to them, they're going to do to him. All those booby traps? Not so funny when you picture those things being done to an eight-year-old boy. Harry even said he was going to [[{{Fingore}} bite off all of Kevin's fingers one at a time]], and had every intention of going through with it. He actually ''had one in his mouth'' before Marley [[BigDamnHeroes came in to rescue Kevin]].
** According to Culkin, [[EnforcedMethodActing he still has a scar on his finger]]. In fact, he and Creator/JoePesci even shared some real-life animosity, partly because of this incident.
** So that Nightmare Fuel stems from aforementioned [[EnforcedMethodActing method acting]] at something that's supposed to be SlapStick.
* The first drafts for the movie included a nightmare sequence by Kevin that got as far as being storyboarded before being cut because it was too expensive and instead just has the furnace roar Kevin's name in the final version used in the movie.
** The first draft shows that after he falls asleep while watching home videos, he is awakened by his father's voice and sees his family on the TV screen without him. They talk about how they are at wherever he wished them away to with a nice new house with a Christmas tree with creepy cheerfulness. With a warm smile, Kate tells Kevin that the place they're at is like Heaven but they're unsure if it really is. She also says not to blame himself because he didn't know what he was saying and that she hopes this doesn't ruin his Christmas. The image goes out, leaving Kevin alone again. Suddenly, nutcrackers come to life and corner Kevin against a trash compacter which squeezes him into a Christmas present shape and it launches him down the laundry chute which leaves him face-to-face with the furnace, which also comes to life and chases Kevin up the stairs, its pipes being used like tentacles. Kevin manages to escape upstairs, only to find that everything in the house has come to life and is out to kill him. Kevin escapes through the attic but even the icicles on the roof attack him too. Finally, one of the pipes from the furnace bursts through the roof and launches Kevin into the night sky, which causes him to wake up screaming.
** The second draft has Kevin constantly believing that things in the house are alive, only to go back to normal. The nutcrackers sing a demented version of "Silent Night" and the grandfather clock becomes disoriented. When he realizes how cold the house is, Kevin goes down into the basement to check the furnace. The mannequins down there come alive and mock Kevin. When he reaches the furnace, it roars at him which sends him running upstairs.
** The third draft follows the second draft's dream but shortens it down to just having the furnace come alive and rip itself from the wall before charging at Kevin.

* Creator/JohnHughes [[WhatCouldHaveBeen actually wanted to make a sequel about an adult Kevin]], entering into canon that he'd become a Joker-esque psychopath after seeing all the stuff he could get away with using his traps. With this in mind the Creator/ChrisColumbus films come off more as an early take on ''Film/HardCandy''.
** What's worse is that Creator/MacaulayCulkin's appearance in the first episode of the web series '':DRYVRS'', [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yh7-wAy_8ss "Just Me In The House By Myself"]], which is very much a FanSequel, takes this idea and ''runs with it''. The sight of a resentful adult Kevin casually heating up a coat-hanger to incapacitate an attempted carjacker, kidnapping him, and then [[ToThePain brutally torturing him]] says nothing good for his mental state.
*** Creator/DanielStern [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hSmGxRGut6w posted a response]] as a kind of comeback for Marv. The video itself plays like found footage, with Marv being terrified and worried about Kevin coming back to get him. It's rather disturbing. Especially when it cuts to black and we hear his famous scream.
