* ''Podcast/FriendsAtTheTable'': One subplot in Sangfielle concerns a character trying to obtain a painting called "Remembering the Zahir" (a reference to the Creator/JorgeLuisBorges story). It's a portrait of a woman facing ''away'' from the painter, and in the background is someone walking across, painted in an intense detail not given to the woman. Anyone who owns the painting becomes obsessed with one of the two people in the painting and slowly has their personality reshaped into their belief of who that person was.

* ''VideoGame/{{Phantasmagoria}}'' develops one over the course of gameplay. Each chapter, protagonist Adrienne Delaney can interact with her new home, the Carnovasch Estate, in various ways and uncover instances of a haunting, and one such interactable is a canvas inside the mansion's conservatory, which gradually gets added to chapter by chapter until it's revealed to be a portrait of a demon.

* ''VideoGame/WorldOfHorror'': It's fairly obvious that "Perilous Parable of the Peculiar Painting" was going to be about these. In the mystery, you accompany an art expert as she visits the mansion of a reclusive artist whose specialty is paintings of horrible monsters. [[spoiler:As it happens, those paintings are actual monsters, bound into them in exchange for human sacrifices. On one ending path, the art expert is sacrificed, and the artist gifts you his latest work, showing her death; on another, you battle the artist himself; on the Ending A path, you interrupt his attempt to sacrifice the expert, and one of his paintings is infuriated by the wait, kills him, and becomes the boss of the mystery.]]

The dungeon in question is the Forest Temple, the first dungeon Link explores as an adult located in the depths of the LostWoods, where [[DungeonTown monsters that have overrun the Kokiri region]] have taken up residence after he awakened from his [[TimeSkip seven-year coma]]. The first instance involves the first three of the Poe Sisters, Joelle, Beth and Amy, hiding in haunted paintings of themselves, requiring the use of an arrow fired at said paintings to get them out; with the former two, Link needs to fire his arrows while their pictures are shown in three of the frames, and getting too close to the portrait currently visible will cause them to disappear into another picture frame, while the latter has to have her portrait put together in under one minute. The second instance is the first phase of the boss fight with Phantom Ganon, where all of the paintings in his arena depict a spooky road and [[PortalPicture he leaps into one of them]], forcing Link to determine which one he will pop out of so he can strike with his arrow while [[DoppelgangerSpin a fake one will try to distract him]], allowing the real one to deliver a [[ShockAndAwe devastating electric attack]] to him.
