- One of the end sequences at the very end of one of the Direct to VHS tapes for this series starts playing "The Merry Go Round Broke Down", and halfway through, a loud "DING!" sound is heard and the tape immediately cuts to black.
- "The Mad Scientist":
- The moment when Lois is captured by the titular Mad Scientist. As soon as he lays his eyes on Lois, he manhandles her into his lair and we get this shot of their shadows against a wall, with the scientist overpowering Lois as she cries out in distress. While the rest of the episode was fairly light-hearted to the point of being goofy, this one moment was shockingly realistic.
- Let's talk about the Mad Scientist himself. Although he doesn't have a lot of personality or character development due to the short, minimalistic style of the storytelling, he is still pretty creepy on his own merit. He's shown to be very quiet, cold, and stoic, which makes him come across as especially sociopathic when he destroys a major bridge. This incident is confirmed to have killed multiple people. His shifty yellow eyes don't help.
- "Jungle Drums":
- Pictured on the right: Lois Lane is being burned at the stake by a bunch of natives. While this is happening, the color palette switches to a hellish mix of red and black with strange silhouettes of the natives dancing and playing drums. It's not-too-subtle hell imagery at it's scariest.
- The horned figure in the picture is actually a Nazi commander, who's been using a God Guise to trick the native Africans into obeying him. After Lois' plane is shot down, she's the only one who knows the location of some military files she hid before the natives caught her, and the commander orders her burned at the stake when she refuses to say where the files are hidden. Then, one of the tribesmen finds the files...
Nazi: I have them!! Look! Your Yankee bravery was in vain! Oh-hoh-oh!!! - "The Underground World" in which Clark, Lois, and a professor journey through a mysterious cave to discover what happened to the latter's missing father who went down the same cave and disappeared years ago. Lois and the professor come upon a tribe of bird-like people who proceed to take them prisoner, and as they're brought into the tribe's home they discover that they possess a near perfect golden replica of the missing father. Moments later the two are tied to a stone slab and the bird-creatures start to lower them into a molten-liquid like substance. To her horror, Lois then realizes the truth: the tribe did the same thing to the professor's father which preserved him and they're now going to suffer the same fate. Sure Superman saves the two of them in the end, but knowing just how close they came to dying in such a horrific way is more than enough to keep you awake for a good while.
- "Terror On the Midway", which features a horrific Killer Gorilla named Gigantor. A tiny monkey accidentally releases Gigantor from his cage while innocently playing around with a rope, and even tries to warn everyone. Then a roar rips through the tent, and everyone freezes in their tracks, audience and performers alike, even the trapeze acrobat above the ring. Cue Gigantors first on-screen appearance in the short, an enormous, monstrous gorilla, far bigger than any natural gorilla would be, tearing through the circus tent and going after the audience with a terrifying Nightmare Face. Not only is he incredibly dangerous, he's so strong that a dozen men can't subdue him, and he even manages to give Superman a good run before he's finally brought down. Tellingly, two lions and a panther escape in the panic, and while also dangerous, they're not portrayed as anywhere near the same level as Gigantor.
- "The Mummy Strikes" is set up like a legitimate horror flick. Beginning with the death of a doctor found at the foot of a recreated burial chamber, his assistant is framed for his murder. Only later to reveal he accidentally triggered a defense mechanism of a poisoned needle trap... but not before inoculating the mummies of the pharaoh’s Giant guards with the Elixir of Life he’d copied... the scene in which they resurrect is bone chilling in and of itself... going from pale withered corpses to fully living beings with Blank White Eyes... They end up trying to burn Lois and the museum curator alive in the fire pit in the middle of the tomb, as punishment for opening the pharaoh's sarcophagus.Curator: *translating the text on the wall* All who disturbs the rest of King Tush must die...
