* Priscilla's Awakening and then her killing of Noel and Sophia counts.
* The death scene of Raquel.
* The torture scene with Jean, Katea, Dauf, and Riful.
* The [[spoiler: deaths of Veronica, Undine, Flora, and Jean in the North.]]
* [[spoiler: Clare's]] Awakening against Rigaldo.
* Agatha's Awakened form and her attack on Rabona.
* Almost any scene with the [[spoiler: Abyss Feeders.]]
* Most of the scenes with the [[spoiler: parasitic rod creatures]] and [[spoiler: Raciella's true form.]]
** Clare got assimilated by the Destroyer, which involved the [[spoiler: lower half of her body being infected and detached from the upper part of her body, with the remainder of her body being infected after that.]]

* The [[spoiler:recently resurrected]] #1, Roxanne, is just a pail full of high octane nightmare fuel by herself. Imagine that you're faced with crazy 'ol Ophelia again - only she's ten times [[DeceptiveDisciple more deceptive]], [[ManipulativeBitch more cunning]], and has ZERO [[FreudianExcuse redeeming qualities]] [[DarkAndTroubledPast or troubled back story]] (if she does, we don't care). Roxanne is quite possibly the series' '''first''' serious complete monster who still had the title of a Claymore.
** Prior to her own transformation, Roxanne dukes it out with another recently-turned Awakened Being. That being is composed of what looks like several [[FanDisservice female bits of various scale]] [[BodyHorror stacked together randomly to create a]] [[CreepyCentipedes Creepy Centipede]]. Which proceeds to [[spoiler: momentarily]] kick Roxanne's ass. ''And Roxanne is still more terrifying than her opponent''. It does NOT help that Roxanne's ''completely human'' face is straight out of the UncannyValley.

** [[spoiler: Galatea]] blinds herself in both eyes in order to hide in a city that bars Claymores from within its walls.
** When they were up against the Abyss Eaters for the first time, [[spoiler: Helen gets her eye scratched out. Luckily for her, she was able to regenerate it later.]]
** Another Claymore during Roxanne's time has a missing eye from an unknown cause, but it happened before she became a Claymore. And then Roxanne [[spoiler: mimicked her by gouging her own eye out.]]
** It's implied that when [[spoiler: she was slashed to death, Cassandra had one of her eyes sliced in half.]]

** We see [[spoiler:Clare's body very nearly split in half]] in 129. Yikes.
* [[spoiler: Raciella's]] true form certainly counts.
* Some, but not all, of the Awakened Beings.
* That [[spoiler: #10.]] She can MindRape you while her friends do god-knows-what-else to you.
* Roxanne. She's like [[TheOphelia Ophelia]] only less single-minded and much smarter.
* Cassandra, [[spoiler: after her Awakening]]. What is THAT?
* We see [[spoiler:Riful's naked waist and legs]] going out for a nice leisurely stroll in [[http://www.mangahere.com/manga/claymore/v23/c132/25.html chapter 132.]] The series has officially gone SurrealHorror now.

* We find out something else about Priscilla in chapter 142 because she wasn't frightening enough: [[spoiler:because her village wouldn't send food to her family after the yoki attack, she was stuck in a house for an entire month with just her and her family's corpses. [[ImAHumanitarian And YES, it seems she did end up eating some of her YOMA-INFECTED FATHER'S CORPSE during that month she was all alone]].]] So terrifying and [[AlasPoorVillain yet so tragic.]]
** Kind of mitigated [[spoiler: when we see that Priscilla's survived being chopped into tiny pieces and is somehow attacking Raki!]]
* Chapter 153: Priscilla's mental breakdown results in a physical one. [[spoiler:She is now nothing but a twisted mass of limbs bursting out of the remains of her original body. The grape-like collections of [[FanDisservice displaced breasts]]]] only make it worse. It is truly [[SarcasmMode awe-inspiring]] how Yagi manages to turn naked women who would ''normally'' be attractive into such terrifying [[EldritchAbomination Eldritch Abominations]]. It's hard to even consider the nudity gratuitous most of the time when it's usually the result of completely believable ClothingDamage and the fact that it's often made so ''horrifying''.
