Well, just look at the trope title then the page image. A blue pony staring at a cliff, in a dark red place. It may look like it could be an Eldritch Location, but there's absolutely no sign of the "psyhological" part in it. Sorry, bronies, but not everyone has seen some flashgame/creepypasta about some kid's show suddenly a lot of people care about. It definitely needs a better pic. Also, suggestions are welcome.

There's no Part 1, I just thought it was funny at the time.

That is just atrocious. I'd be fine with just pulling it. This is the kind of trope that would be hard to illustrate, so I really don't have any ideas for a replacement, but right now, the current pic and caption have to go.

Agree with the pull.

Terrible picture. I support the pull.

The trope sounds like the perfect description of the Cave of the Dark Side in The Empire Strikes Back, but I'm not sure any screenshots would show that (as opposed to just a slightly creepy dark cave).

Non-illustrative. Pulled it.

Could we possibly do this with the zone of terror that Diablo sends you into when you fight it in Diablo III? Or is that too much of a spoiler?

[down] That was another concern I had.

[up]Example, yes, but does it illustrate the trope well? I'm not so sure.

Monomania from Magic the Gathering, perhaps? It's obvious that the hands are tormenting the poor guy, although it might look a bit too physical.

I'm going to try and find a larger image.

I'll leave this open for now...if a viable option doesn't surface by Monday morning, this will be locked.

Monomania is for me.

As hard as the trope is to illustrate, that's a good effort.

That'll work. Second one's a bit clearer.

That's good enough. The pic is up, potholed, and tagged. I'm thinking it needs a caption...I was going to suggest one of Diablo's lines about his Realm of Terror from Diablo III but that doesn't quite fit the trope.

Gonna go ahead and lock this...if anyone thinks of a good caption, feel free to add it.
