The track "the Eve of the War" in Jeff Waynes War of the Worlds is a pretty upbeat (and very bombastic) song about the martian invaders coming, that ends with a sound that could be a martian beacon or radar-whatever. Pretty inhuman and cold after the song anyway, but for the life of me I can't think of a category to put it in...

Didn't there used to be an image on the main page of a piece of sheet music with a happy-sounding title, and then it was torn apart and covered in blood at the bottom of the image with a knife right next to it? I like that image.

Music examples may need a separate page.

Does the end of "We are the champions" count? It's not so much a scare chord as a lack of completion. I was teaching a class of 30-50 year old ESL students with the song, and they commented on it too. There's something unsettling about the end of the song.
