Nightmare Fuel / Making Fiends

Go To

Clamburg is full of horrifying things, Fiend or otherwise- and no, Charlotte's overwhelming desire to be nice and cute does not soften the blow.

As a Moments subpage, all spoilers are unmarked as per policy. You Have Been Warned.


General:

  • Basically, the entire premise of the show could be this. An Enfant Terrible has taken over/traumatized a town using homemade monsters to the point that no one has the guts to go up against her. She is now hell bent on murdering another girl just because she wanted to be friends with her, and the only thing keeping this little girl from getting killed is her uncanny obliviousness and naivety. Black Comedy indeed, Amy Winfrey.

Specific episodes:

  • The scene in "Toupee" where Mr. Milk is persuaded by the toupee to push Charlotte off a fence on the edge of a cliff. The sky gradually gets more and more red as Mr. Milk gets closer to the edge of the cliff, with Mr. Milk looking more and more terrified and reluctant as he walks closer. Luckily, he doesn't go through with it.
  • "Puppies! Puppies! Puppies!" Charlotte meets her untimely demise again and again and again, and in each case, her last words are "Yay! Gumdrops!" Only one clone is aware it's a trap, and she finds out a little too late.
    • Turns out there were at least two Charlottes that didn't get eaten. Whether or not one of them was the original Charlotte is unclear.
    • One scene from earlier in the episode has a bunch of Charlottes cornering Vendetta in her bed. One of the clones actually has an evil smile on her face.
  • Vendetta's Slasher Smile while she gives cookies to people in "Super Evil".
  • The near end of "Shrinking Charlotte", when the giant cat swallows the shrinking slug and one of the gianting squid.
  • The nightmare sequence from "Tornado", Vendetta finds doors that leads to cross-eyed Charlottes (one normal one, one with a cup of a smaller Charlotte with a cup of an even smaller Charlotte, one with eight heads.). As Vendetta runs away from the doors, she notices that something blocking her path, and she finds out that she’s in a gigantic Charlotte’s eye saying "HI NEIGHBOR!".
