* Emily describing the story of how she died, chased through the woods by an insane maniac who just murdered her parents. She then falls down the well and hurts her neck, so the man leaves her to die, slowly, of dehydration. The fact that the story wasn't actually true doesn't mitigate the creepiness.
** When the story of her death is revisited, it's even more disturbing. It's shown with two wordless illustrations on pages 154-155: Emily stares at her crush and his girlfriend embracing through the window before barring the door of their house and burning it down with them inside, and is then chased into the well by an angry mob with TorchesAndPitchforks. The entire time she does it, she has a DeathGlare with tears pouring down her face.
** Additionally, Emily's picture in the newspaper right before then is somewhat terrifying. Maybe it's just because it's the first time she's seen with pupils, or just as a normal person, but the dark circles and murderous expression kind of just hits you.
* Before Anya's mom sprains her ankle, we're treated to a charming little scene where Emily lurks in the kitchen while Anya's mom cooks dinner... and Anya realizes Emily's put ''rat poison'' in the food. She only just barely manages to prevent her family from eating it.
* And then there's just ''how'' she sprains her ankle: Emily moved some marbles and put them on the stairs. As Anya herself points out, they are very, ''very'' lucky that a sprained ankle is all she got.
* Looking from Anya's mom's perspective, the idea your children are AloneWithThePsycho and you don't know about it is pretty damn terrifying.
* The final chase scene with Emily. She becomes increasingly monstrous as time goes on and, by the time Anya gets to the well, is a ''gigantic sharp-tooth monster'' of a girl looking ready to tear Anya to pieces. Shortly after the bone is thrown into the well, too, Emily climbs back up ''while possessing her own bones''.
