* In the ApocalypticLog-style creepypasta ''[[https://www.deviantart.com/star-byte/art/My-Guardian-Angel-189320867 My Guardian Angel]]'', when a young Trainer's Nincada evolves into a Ninjask, its cast-off shell becomes a Shedinja. The girl realizes its power when a wild Baltoy accidentally looks at the hole in Shedinja's back and dies. Despite how dangerous it is, she continues to train and use Shedinja in battle because of its immunity to most damage. She defeats all the Gym Leaders, but when her other Pokémon aren't strong enough to defeat the Elite Four, she brings Shedinja out as a last resort. During her battle with Drake, the paper tied to Shedinja's back comes off in battle, Drake loses his soul, and the girl becomes wanted for murder. She runs away to Meteor Falls, goes insane and uses Shedinja to kill her Pokémon and then herself.

[[folder:''Naruto'']]
* The entirety of "[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4633752/1/He_Had_No_Fingers He had no fingers]]", a sort of CosmicHorrorStory ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'' fic, starting with Naruto's body and spirit getting warped beyond recognition by the Nine-Tails until... well, the title is indicative. "Highlight" right at the beginning: Naruto's belly opening up and DEVOURING Kakashi (and Naruto then feeding the bits to passing strays). And that's the mildest thing in the whole fic.
* The Uzumaki Clan in ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/8469395/1/The-Uzumaki-Massacre The Uzumaki Massacre]]'' are TheDreaded for a very, ''very'' good reason, shown when Oonoki and other veterans recall killing them during the Second Shinobi War.
-->'''First Old Man:''' I saw a woman. Couldn't have been younger than ninety, probably a hundred, they live that damn long you know. She was holding a sword in her left hand, because she'd lost her right arm, and pretty much everything, shoulder to hip, sternum out by the time I saw her, looked like it had been blasted off by a [[ShockAndAwe raiton]], but I saw that old woman cut down no less than fifty trained ninja before some poor bastard finally cut off her head but... That old lady's body kept going, that headless body cut down five more men, before she fell and drove her sword into the heart of the man who beheaded her. One of my buddies set her on fire, just in case. I...I don't know if I was seeing things, but that blackened, headless corpse, it looked like it still tried to get up again.
-->'''Second Old Man:''' My brother and I were in that hell together. We saw a kid, maybe three years old, crawling through the blood and muck, missing both his legs, looking like he'd been coughing up blood. My brother went to put the kid out of his misery. The kid jumped. With just his arms, the kid jumped ten feet and tore my brother's throat out with his teeth. He came at me before my brother even hit the ground, I was lucky to get my arm up in time. The little monster still tore my arm out at the shoulder, but it bought me enough time to get a kunai out and plant it in his head. When everything was over and we gathered the bodies, we found thousands more who'd been killed like my brother, with little bite marks where their throats were.

[[folder:''OMORI'']]
* ''Fanfic/{{Hands|OMORI}}'', which takes Mari's MemeticMolester reputation in the fandom and [[PlayedForHorror plays it for absolute horror]]. This fic depicts Mari as [[VillainousIncest a serial rapist of her younger brother Sunny]], and goes into painstaking and realistic detail about the horrific toll this has on his mental state, with ''no'' attempt to play her predatory acts for {{Fanservice}} at all. There are many struck-out passages in the fic, representing Sunny's attempts to deny or repress his memories of Mari molesting him. And it's implied that Sunny isn't the only person she tried to use for her own sexual gain, as there are flashbacks that imply that Mari also tried to molest Aubrey as well during a seemingly innocent cuddle, and when Sunny sees her seemingly putting the moves on Basil, he intervenes so that [[TakeMeInstead Mari can take him instead of Basil]]. And the incident that led to her death, which this fic reframes as [[KarmicDeath a justified act of self-defense]]? After Sunny smashes his violin after his frustrations with Mari come to a peak, Mari not only makes yet another attempt on him, but it's implied that she was going to get ''exceptionally'' cruel with him, but Sunny kills her before she can subject him to whatever nasty acts she was intending to do.
--> Mari smiled, [[SlasherSmile yet it was laced with venom]]. \\
"You shouldn't be rude to your sister." \\
Sunny could hear memories of his own voice pleading quietly to her from the floor of the piano room. \\
"You're such a good listener, you know. Why push it? Everyone's much happier when you're [[ExtremeDoormat a good boy that just listens to people venting their frustrations]]." \\
She got close to him. \\
"[[FreudianExcuse And this was always my way of venting, Sunny. Do you know how hard it is to try to be perfect? How stressful it is?]] But you - you always made me feel good. At least until now."
* Any art that graphically depicts Basil's scuffle against Sunny -- [[http://archiveofourown.org/works/40833825/chapters/107164797#workskin portraying Sunny's total helplessness]] against the two's inner demons, and the horrid pain and/or [[https://twitter.com/newmakerpIane/status/1390159420613697538 imminence]] of his eye injury.
* The fan comic ''[[https://www.tumblr.com/ginumo/675099867398422528/more-fucked-up-efae-content-1-next-222022 Eye for an Eye]]''. After the game's golden ending, Basil ''gouges his own eye out'' over his sink, because he's still scared of Sunny abandoning him -- he thinks Sunny would otherwise resent him for stabbing Sunny's eye. Such a deliberate, permanent, ''and'' self-inflicted injury shows how much Basil still needs to recover.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:''One Piece'']]
* The fic ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/7387687/20/Asteria-Nightmare Asteria Nightmare]]'' gives us a whole island haunted by Nightmares, which are [[EldritchAbomination hellish creatures]] feeding on dreams. Dreams as your ambition and goal in life; when it's taken away from you, you become a mess gradually wasting away. When Nami tries to make Zoro remember how he wants to become the World's Greatest Swordsman, he almost goes into shock because he can feel ''something'' is ''missing'' and he's unable to remember what. And there's Luffy, whose dream to become the Pirate King is his ''entire life'', going outright catatonic.
** In the last chapter, an ApocalypticLog reveals how Nightmares were unleashed on the physical world: the island was inhabited by a peaceful civilization, and when travelers came upon their shores, they innocently revealed their ability to dreamwalk. It all spiraled downwards as the traveler's leader wanted a way to physically explore the Dream world, making this also a first-grade TearJerker.

[[folder:''Pokémon'']]
* There are a lot of disturbing ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'' fics out there, but the second half of ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6090923/1/Reunion Reunion]]'' is just downright disturbing and at times grotesque. It starts off as a slightly darker Ash/Misty fic, with a lot of funny scenes, and then -- Butch gets his throat torn out by a Mightyena, a sadistic psychic Rocket elite who assimilates the minds of the humans and Pokémon he kills is torn apart as the souls he absorbed struggle to free themselves by growing off of his flesh, before throwing themselves to their deaths... with smiles on their lips...and ''it gets worse'' from there...
* ''VideoGame/PokemonChannel'' is a cute game, right? [[TemptingFate Nothing based on it could be that bad, right?]] Well, there's this little gem known as [[http://warriorkloneomon.deviantart.com/art/Pokemon-Dead-Channel-185310792 Pokémon Dead Channel,]] which shows horror and {{Gorn}} in some of their highest and most scarring forms. Here's a nice little description of a Magikarp, and it's not much worse than most of the other descriptions in the story:
-->''...[[BodyHorror but it was foaming at the mouth while a green acidic blood poured out from numerous gashes all along its body. Multiple organs clung to the many spikes sticking out from it's body. Parts of its scales had been scraped away exposing muscle underneath, and some parts of the muscle had been what looks like eaten leaving bones sticking out. It flopped around and gasped for air while disturbing gurgling sounds emmited from its mouth.]]''
* Some of the descriptions in Cori Falls's ''Anime/PokemonTheSeries'' fics. Some notable examples are "The Power That's Inside" where Meowth's narrative describes Pikachu's electric attack hitting Jessie and James as "frying flesh and bone alike", the brutal mass beating of Ash in "New Directions 1" wherein his many injuries are described in great detail and it's clear that if not for the healing lake he might have ''died'', and Jessie's grandparents' beating of Ash and Misty in "Never Too Late". There's something unsettling about the image of two sweet old people pulverizing ''twelve year olds''.
* ''[[http://www.serebiiforums.com/showthread.php?641936-The-Master-s-Trick The Master's Trick]]'', a ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'' fanfic featuring the Trick Master from ''Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald'', May, and a young man named Eddie who is the story's narrator. At first the story seems pretty normal: with the main character meeting and befriending the Trick Master. Then it all starts to go downhill as the Trick Master, in an attempt to overcome May's challenge to beat his Trick House, ''creates a new universe that begins to eat the old one up'' and he and May apparently ''die''.
** Eddie, after finding out that the Trick Master and May have gone missing, enters the burned out house to find him. After walking down an infinite hallway, he encounters images of the past accompanied by what is presumably a [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech lecture]] to May. Then ''Rayquaza'' nearly devours him.
** The end of the letter, where he describes what will happen to the world with an eerie calmness. [[FridgeHorror He mentions the world being completely different, and this fanfic was written after the remakes of ''Ruby'' and ''Sapphire'' came out.]]
* For the series' 20th anniversary, someone made a series of videos focusing on different Pokemon types. The [[SugarWiki/AwesomeArt art]] and [[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic music]] is superb, and the amount of detail and references to various Pokedex entries and plot points throughout the franchise makes the videos an [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome awesome]] and [[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments heartwarming]] tribute. However, that doesn't mean that they shy away from the more disturbing aspects of Pokemon:
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ikvea42XCU Here's what they did for Ghost-types]]. It starts out okay, if a smidge ominous due to the Lavender Town theme...then it gets terrifying. The song slowly gets more and more distorted as various Ghost-types are shown attacking and sometimes ''killing'' humans (or just sneaking up on them) and it eventually seems to end with [[TearJerker Cubone and his mother]]...but then a Gengar shows up. After the Gengar, we see a Banette--a ''[[TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou live-action]]'' Banette--get up and chase the viewer. And then, [[{{Satan}} Giratina]] emerges, gains a shadowy SlasherSmile and looms over the screen as the music gets more distorted...then, Giratina's wings envelope the screen and the song glitches to a halt.
** Somehow, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25T5U-Q_D2Y the one for Psychic-types]] is even worse. Like with the above mentioned video, it mostly just focuses on the Pokemon that make up this particular type, but they're showcased in terrifying ways. Ironically, the memetically creepy Mr. Mime only gets a cameo and is relatively tame. From there, we get such lovely gems as a pair of Meowstic who look like the [[CreepyTwins twins]] from ''Film/TheShining'', a Creator/{{Tim Burton}}-esque depiction of Gothorita luring a boy out of his bed to play with her, a Gothitelle [[TearJerker crying]] as she has a vision about a man (presumably her trainer) growing old and dying, Solrock and Lunatone doing...''something'', a brief close-up on a bouncing Spoink's heart (with the strong implication that it's ''about to stop beating'') and Jynx...oh sweet Arceus above, ''[[NightmareFace Jynx]]''...it's all peppered by a series of images that seem to be about Sabrina slowly going insane and eventually culminates in [[UltimateLifeform Mewtwo's]] creation and the birth of [[EldritchAbomination Deoxys]]. Images of the cloning process are seen with a Solosis being injected into an egg cell, and then Reuniclus is shown in an ultrasound. This Pokemon line has to do with cells and mitosis. Sabrina is seen as a child the moment she gets her psychic powers, and she's seen looking more haggard and unstable while she has to perform her psychic powers for scientists. At the end she's in a straitjacket, an Abra beside her and a Lapras in suspended animation in a tank behind her. All three have electrodes fastened to their heads, being monitored for something, while Sabrina looks miserably towards the camera.
** Here's the one for [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmvjKSiggEw Bug Pokemon]]. It's mostly cute and nice to look at, but it shows Paras. The video cuts to other bug types, then back to Paras. The mushrooms on its back are a little bigger and Paras's pupils are getting smaller. Another cut to more Bug types. Then another shot to Paras, who stops moving, the mushrooms huge now and Paras's pupils pinpricks and the eyes cloudy. There's a final shot to Paras, only it's a Parasect now, and some of the dots on the mushroom form a smile. We saw this poor Pokemon get taken over by fungi.
** The one for [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oQMtXB-wMmM Poison types]] is pretty freaky. It starts off cute, with a female trainer riding her bike. She spots what looks like a Pokeball on on the side of the path, but when she disembarks to get it she realizes the Pokeball is really a Foongus. She gets poisoned and faints, and what follows can only be described as an [[MushroomSamba fever dream]] where many Poison types appear with unsettling, electronic music that eventually picks up in tempo. A strange voice is heard chanting near the middle of the song after the tempo increase.[[note]]It's actually a deeply distorted remix of Roxie's gym theme.[[/note]] All of the Pokemon in this one are portrayed menacingly, but Victreebel takes the cake. There is a grove full of them and one is zoomed in on, then made transparent to reveal an arm sticking out of the acid in its stomach. At the end of the video, the female trainer regains consciousness, looking exhausted.
** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YtI36bIAJaU Dark Type]] video has its moments, as you might expect, as most of the Pokemon and villain teams shown look menacing. However, one major highlight is a shot of a group of Cacturne slowly sneaking up on a researcher. [[OhCrap The artist helpfully added a shaking animation and a terrified facial expression as he realizes what's about to happen]]. There are also shots of Absol being driven away by a group of hands, Yveltal absorbing thousands upon thousands of life energy, and Hoopa Unbound summoning Legendaries, all set to intense music.
* There used to be an artist named [=PokemonFromHell=] whose page has since been deleted, but their works can still be found, spread around the Internet. All of their pieces have one central theme: ordinary Pokémon reimagined as [[EldritchAbomination Eldritch abominations]] from the deepest depths of Tartarus. Inspired by various sources, including scary Pokédex entries, FridgeHorror relating to the Pokémon themselves, behavior of real-life animals, monsters from other video games, and more.
** [[https://static1.e621.net/data/a7/b1/a7b10c1156784e53e97bcbb49f3f50d8.png Skarmory's entry]], inspired by a Pokédex entry stating that Skarmory raise their chicks in thorny nests to toughen their metal skins, shows a badly bleeding and crying baby Skarmory in its nest, next to the impaled corpse of its sibling, while the parents look on emotionlessly with nightmarish glowing eyes.
--->'''Caption:''' Not ''all'' chicks are able to endure the fearsome brambles of the nest...
*** What makes this one creepier is the fact that there are birds in real life that have a similar SocialDarwinist viewpoint of their offspring. For example, some species of vulture lay two eggs at a time, one as a backup in case the first egg doesn't survive. If both eggs hatch, the parents don't try to raise both chicks, and only feed the older one. The younger chick starves to death and eventually gets eaten by its older sibling.
** [[https://i.pinimg.com/originals/1d/98/57/1d9857023214de8576e0a9d3e8d87376.jpg Luvdisc's entry]] features a gruesome parody of a SpaghettiKiss, with two Luvdisc feasting on the internal organs of [[IAmAHumanitarian a third, dead Luvdisc]]. Happy Valentine's Day!

** Behold, [[https://i.pinimg.com/originals/e5/5c/1d/e55c1d4180d914b6ae237480da71684b.jpg Slowpoke]]... or rather, the desiccated, hollowed-out corpse of a Slowpoke that's been dead for so long that spiders (real spiders, not Spinarak) have spun webs in its tail, insides, and eye sockets.
** Red is being chased by a [[https://static1.e621.net/data/sample/e1/46/e146530eac85b0139576b358d022b51c.jpg Ditto]] partially shapeshifted to look like him, except for its face (which looks ''very wrong'' on a humanoid body) -- and underneath its "clothing" is just a formless mass of darkness with numerous outstretched, bloody tentacles.
--->'''Caption:''' ''Red'' looks bad? [[NothingIsScarier You don't want to know what happened to his Pokémon...]]
** [[https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/creepypasta/images/6/67/No_607_litwick_by_pokemonfromhell-d3jdp81.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/453?cb=20120224224854 Litwick]] sports a gruesome SlasherSmile with a melting mouth and eyes. The background is filled with the faces of anguished spirits (presumably Litwick's victims after it ate their souls) that appear to be wailing in agony.
--->'''Caption:''' "Oh, let me guide your way, by the way, your soul is ''DELICIOUS.''"
** [[https://k31.kn3.net/taringa/4/3/3/9/B/E/SrGrim/FD1.png Tentacool]] squeezing a Shellos with its tentacles so hard that purple goop comes pouring out of its body.
** The entry for [[https://i.pinimg.com/736x/74/7e/91/747e912774e264b8f087780f11d0e239--poison.jpg Grimer and Muk]] will make sure you never want to go into a sewer ever again.
** [[https://static1.e621.net/data/82/71/8271878e980779e4cabbb8b93d1eaf7b.png Chespin]] has vines growing out of its eye socket, leaving its eye dangling by a few strings of flesh.
** [[https://static1.e621.net/data/sample/36/d8/36d89a817fede4819b716bc6dcb5545b.jpg This lovely piece]] shows what happens if a Butterfree is forced out of its Metapod form too early...
** Remember Bagon's Pokédex entry that mentions it regularly jumping off of cliffs in an attempt to fly? Unfortunately for the poor thing, SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome occurs in the [[https://cdnio.luscious.net/21/lusciousnet_no__371___bagon_by_poke_1816154586.jpg worst possible way]].
** Not graphic enough for you? Have a Rattata being [[https://static1.e621.net/data/sample/a0/a0/a0a0c3303f8d1794087486f15422cdd2.jpg vivisected alive]]... and witness its [[https://static1.e621.net/data/sample/b2/9d/b29dc99de8727735cc385e432351556c.jpg revenge]] after it evolves into Raticate.
** [[https://static1.e621.net/data/sample/b1/3f/b13ff687e388ea0369817bd35b9f1f9c.jpg Chansey]] cracking open like an egg as... ''[[FetusTerrible something...]]'' emerges from its body, tearing its way out like a chestburster from ''{{Film/Alien}}''. Even worse, [[NothingIsScarier all that's visible of the newborn monster-thing]] is a pair of eyes and a bloody SlasherSmile. Whatever it is, it's no Happiny.
** How sharp are Scyther's scythes? Sharp enough to [[https://i.pinimg.com/originals/a3/3c/2e/a33c2e4d0701e604f85d4f930af6aa83.jpg slice a Pachirisu clean in half]]!

Rowlet looks like a creature from TheLostWoods, Litten's head appears to have a line of crude stitching down the middle, and Popplio's head, eyes, nose, and torso [[BodyHorror are swelling like balloons]]...the poor thing looks like it's one pinprick away from exploding into a gory mess.
** How do you make [[https://e621.net/post/show/348537 Igglybuff]] scary? Turn the spiral on its forehead into an ''{{Manga/Uzumaki}}'' homage, complete with EyeScream!
** According to Sneasel's Pokédex entries, it likes to eat Pidgey eggs... but who says it wouldn't go for [[https://e621.net/post/show/536600 Exeggcute]] instead?
** In [[https://e621.net/post/show/347569 Joltik's entry]], a mean little boy who's been stomping on Joltiks is about to get a [[HighVoltageDeath very nasty comeuppance]] from a giant Joltik fusion monster looming menacingly behind him. Though the ":3" faces might lessen the horror for some.
* The Nuzlocke comic ''Sins of the Father'' features a prologue that reveals part of the method through which Team Plasma indoctrinated children to become their next "king": [[https://www.deviantart.com/oniwanbashu/art/Sins-of-the-Father-Prologue-Pg-1-611102036 Forcing them to watch graphic footage of Pokemon being abused]]. The worst part? [[https://www.deviantart.com/oniwanbashu/art/Sins-of-the-Father-Prologue-Pg-2-613003134 One]] of said videos is ''a CrushFilm'' of a Glameow being stomped to death. Bear in mind that N and his fellow candidates were [[HarmfulToMinors children]] when Ghetsis forced them to view this stuff. And then there's the fact that N SpeaksFluentAnimal...so he could ''hear the poor Glameow pleading for its life''. And Ghetsis is [[KickTheDog clearly enjoying every minute of this]]. And for the cherry on top, the author reveals in the comments that they included that due to the fact that they witnessed a similar video by accident, after someone thought it'd be such a good idea to post it on facebook.
* [[https://www.reddit.com/r/creepypasta/comments/21unfb/my_sis_was_on_facebook_when_she_found_this_story/ In this comic]], a Nidoran who hates Poké Balls is put into one by its Trainer during a journey, who promises that she'll let it out once they cross the volcano. But for some reason she doesn't, and the Nidoran remains trapped in there for a long, long time...so long that the Poké Ball's data begins to degrade. The text conveying its thoughts gets [[OminousVisualGlitch more corrupted by glitching and misspelling]] as the data corrupts further, the emergency release system fails, and the Nidoran becomes an [[TragicMonster "error missingNO_"]]. The last panel reveals the Trainer's skull lying in the grass along with the empty shell of her Squirtle and the now-defunct Poké Ball, along with the text, ''[[TearJerker "I miss you so, so much."]]'' It's worth noting that the original Tumblr post this stemmed from was discussing the question of what happens if a Pokémon trainer dies while their Pokémon are still in their Poké Balls.
** Those [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mRKkEWeaukU two]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QyMH6x55GYs dubs]] of the comic ramp up the scary factor with more visual glitches and static, and the Nidoran suffering a DyingVocalChange during its corruption. In the latter, the computerized voice repeats, "error: missingNO, error: missingNO, error: missing--" before the sound abruptly shuts off. The last frame is a shot of the Poké Ball with its button flashing red...which continues to flash as the credits roll and the screen goes dark.
* In the comic ''Webcomic/YamasksRevenge'', two Unovan archeologists discover a vase in some ancient ruins. While they're standing on a high ledge, the male archeologist pushes his colleague to her death so he can get all the fame and money for their discovery. Unknown to anyone, she is revived as a Yamask. Much later, the archeologist is exploring another set of ruins and notices a trail of gold nuggets on the floor. [[SchmuckBait He follows it]], only to discover that it was a trap set by a Cofagrigus--the evolved form of the Yamask that was his murder victim. [[KarmicDeath She pulls him inside her body, slams it shut, and kills him]].
* [[https://jksketchy-art.tumblr.com/post/154065756734/i-wanted-a-happiny This]] comic, along with its [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TlCxThnqDpk absolutely chilling dub]], [[DeconstructionFic deconstructs]] the concept of S.O.S battles introduced in ''VideoGame/PokemonSunAndMoon''. A Dartrix has an injured Bonsly cornered and utters a single word: "Again." The Bonsly calls for help, prompting another Bonsly to emerge. The Dartrix kills said Bonsly with a Razor Leaf and the scene pans out to reveal the area ''riddled'' with the corpses of other Bonsly who came to the first one's aid. The Dartrix, still looming over the poor Bonsly and unsympathetic to its fear, simply says ''"Again."'' [[WhatTheHellPlayer All because its trainer wants a Happiny]].
* In the ApocalypticLog-style creepypasta ''[[https://www.deviantart.com/star-byte/art/My-Guardian-Angel-189320867 My Guardian Angel]]'', when a young Trainer's Nincada evolves into a Ninjask, its cast-off shell becomes a Shedinja. The girl realizes its power when a wild Baltoy accidentally looks at the hole in Shedinja's back and dies. Despite how dangerous it is, she continues to train and use Shedinja in battle because of its immunity to most damage. She defeats all the Gym Leaders, but when her other Pokémon aren't strong enough to defeat the Elite Four, she brings Shedinja out as a last resort. During her battle with Drake, the paper tied to Shedinja's back comes off in battle, Drake loses his soul, and the girl becomes wanted for murder. She runs away to Meteor Falls, goes insane and uses Shedinja to kill her Pokémon and then herself.
-->'''Entry 29''': It's all over for me now. I was battling Drake. About to win. But Shedinja's cover came off in battle. His Pokemon didn't lose their souls. He lost his. Now I'm wanted for murder. I tried telling them it wasn't my fault. They wouldn't listen. So they lost their souls too.\\
'''Entry 30''': I ran away. I'm hiding in Meteor Falls. No one knows I'm here. If they do. They lose their soul.\\
'''Entry 31''': My Pokémon. They don't like me. They think I'm crazy. So I made it steal their souls. All of them.\\
'''Entry 32''': Someone saw. They tried to help. It stole. No one can hurt me.\\
'''Entry 33''': My angel. My angel. My sweet little angel. Protect me from the evil. My guardian angel.\\
'''Entry 34''': I'm cornered. They've found me. Their souls won't be stolen. But they can't get me. My guardian angel will protect me from the evil.
* ''[[https://fyeahpokemoncreepypasta.tumblr.com/post/185699344507 When You Sing]]'' describes a Trainer becoming entranced and DrivenToMadness by the endless music of a mysterious red tower in the darkness. Their eardrums explode and their hand disappears when they try to touch the tower, but they fall in love with the tower and its song, unable to leave. The story is based on the Female Symbol Glitch found in ''Yellow'', a glitch Pokémon whose sprite consists of a line of red pixels against a black background and can replace the background music with endless glitching sounds, locking up the game.
* [[https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemon/comments/17mjcxt/oc_best_buddies/ This seemingly innocent piece of fanart]] shows a Chikorita and a Paras becoming friends...and then the next two pictures show Chikorita evolving into Bayleef and then Meganium with MindControlEyes and mushrooms growing all over its body and out of its mouth, with Paras (now Parasect) having taken over its body and turned it into a meat puppet. Then, the artist went on to make a series of similar artworks with [[https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemon/comments/17qhif2/oc_paras_made_a_new_friend/ Treecko]], [[https://www.reddit.com/r/bulbasaurmasterrace/comments/14pryfm/oc_bulbasaur_evolution_with_a_paras_infection/ Bulbasaur]], [[https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemon/comments/17usj4z/oc_bff_laughing_throughout_the_years/ Turtwig]], [[https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemon/comments/17xai10/oc_a_very_close_group_of_friends/ Snivy]], and [[https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemon/comments/180yr5n/oc_protecting_my_friends/ Chespin]]. The resulting Torterra and Serperior are so thoroughly infected that they look like freaky half-Parasect hybrids!
** At least [[https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemon/comments/181qx5k/oc_paras_tries_to_make_a_new_friend/ Rowlet]] seems to be aware of the danger and runs away from Paras in terror. But in the last few panels, Paras looks very sad, and then very angry. Uh-oh...
** The horror continues with [[https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemon/comments/187mzf9/oc_friends_playing_hide_and_seek/ Grookey]] and [[https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemon/comments/18dh44x/oc_your_friendship_gave_me_wings/ Sprigatito]]. The former ends with a vengeful Paras attacking Rowlet with the "help" of an infected Rillaboom, and the latter ends with a Terastallized, infected Meowscarada sneaking up behind a very battered-looking Rowlet.

[[folder:''Power Rangers'']]
* ''Agony in Pink'' goes into detail about the torture of Kimberly. Even more disturbing is that this was [[FetishRetardant meant to turn on readers]].
* ''Fanfic/PersonalityConflicts'' runs on this and angst. First, you have Tommy's multiple personalities anthropomorphized as an EldritchAbomination. Then, you have... anything dealing with Nyghtmayr or the Shadow Empire. Did we mention that since the main rangers are trying to get witnesses for Zordon's trial, ''children'' fight Shadowborg?
* ''Fanfic/PowerRangersGPX'' has very little, even with its ''SIU'' AU version, but chapter 6 changes everything. When we're first introduced to the alchemist Ronald, he's a LargeHam, typical ''Power Rangers'' brute before it's revealed that all the defeats he's suffered over time has turned him psychotic and out for revenge against the Rangers and he takes it out on them ''[[ToThePain by torturing them with the worst pain imaginable]].''

[[folder:''Ranma ½'']]
* ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12327719/1/What-Do-You-Want What Do You Want?]]'' has a few moments:
** Kuno weaponizing the DramaticThunder.
** [[OriginalCharacter Himura Tanaka]] all but forcing Ranma to go at school as a girl and join her volleyball team on pain of framing him for a sex offender charge, using Ranma's refusal to hurt civilians and the fact she's a YakuzaPrincess to shield herself from retaliation. That also leads into Nabiki discovering that her subordinate [[OriginalCharacter Hana]] took over all her operations at school, and, differently from her, has absolutely zero qualms, having exchanged them for blackmail on Nabiki. Blackmail that could potentially set Shampoo on her.
*** And as the story progresses, the depths of Himura's sociopathy.
*** Himura beat her own father into a permanent coma, and [[AbusiveParents her reasons for doing so]].
** Akane ''snapping'' at Kuno and [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown punching him on a steel door until she manages to punch him through]].
** [[NoNonsenseNemesis Shampoo doing her thing]]:
*** When Hana tries to take the money from Nabiki's first counterattack on Himura, Nabiki is quick to inform a passing Shampoo that Hana has taken pictures of Ranma during a physical and prove it, thus making sure Shampoo won't believe anything Hana has on Nabiki... And getting the Chinese Amazon angry at her. Poor Hana quickly finds out at exactly the wrong moment that Shampoo, differently from Ranma, has no trouble hurting civilians if given reason, and is lucky that the Amazon couldn't be bothered to give chase.
*** When she's informed that Nodoka may try and set Ranma up with [[AxCrazy Kodachi]] due her being just better than the other fiancees at traditional Japanese stuff and that she, Ukyo and Akane need to work together to stall until Nabiki figures something to get her out of the running, she has to be talked down from stuffing Kodachi into a box and mailing her to the South Pole, completely unconcerned over the fact she could die of thirst before delivery. And when Kodachi manages to pass the "elimination" phase of the ''omiai'', she suggests that they just kill her.
---->"Could take care of her quietly..."
*** Shampoo versus the Hentai Horde. Even if they fully deserved what she did to them, she had to ''ask'' to know she was to simply cripple them and not kill the whole lot on the spot...
** How headmaster Kuno got away with his antics for so long and puts Himura in her place: he's a retired ''Yakuza boss'', and still has good friends there, including Himura's grandfather.
** The Hentai Horde from Akane and Nabiki's point of view: a rape gang. And when Akane starts shaming most of them into the HeelRealization, the Kendo team and a few others actually start acting like one, at least until Shampoo and Ukyo step in and put them into traction.
*** The Kendo team was planning to use Himura's conditions that prevented Ranma from fighting back against aggressions on school grounds to force Akane into a subservient role. That's when Shampoo and Ukyo stepped in.
** Nodoka Saotome actually manages to be scarier than ''Shampoo'':
*** She has suddenly become insistent that Ranma marries and father a child ''right now''. Why? Because she expects him and his wife to go on a training trip and leave her the child to raise, and she sees it as a reward for letting Genma take Ranma on the training trip.
*** She had been using photocopies of the seppuku contract as stationery.
** Rin's incredible power when hitting a volleyball had been PlayedForLaughs for most of the fic... Then she first experienced Genma Saotome and his attitude toward Ranma, and decided to throw the ball at him after hitting it with all her strength. Normal people would have ''died'' from that.
* ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11166720/1/A-Tale-of-Two-Wallets A Tale of Two Wallets]]'' has its version of the Golden Pair Arc:
** This time, the target of [[AndCallHimGeorge Azusa's antics]] is not Ryoga but [[ProudWarriorRaceGuy Shampoo]]. On first reading it's hilarious... Then it dawns that [[NoNonsenseNemesis Shampoo has no qualms about killing people and is frighteningly efficient about it]], and the reader realizes Azusa ''will'' pay for it.
** Here Ranma's partner in the fight is Nabiki... Who, while quite fit, isn't anywhere near [[SuperStrength as strong as cast's martial artists]], and now has to go against one. When the realization dawns on her, [[GodzillaThreshold her solution is to ask help to]] ''[[AxCrazy Kodachi]]''.
*** Kodachi helps... By [[TrainingFromHell attacking her to improve her dodging abilities]]. In her defense, Kodachi would have chosen something else if they had more than a week of time to prepare...
*** Kodachi admits she went through the same training... From [[AbusiveParents her late and insane mother]].
** In the meantime, Shampoo is staying at the Tendo's... In her cursed cat form, with Nabiki, who here is the one engaged to Ranma, having decided to take care of what she believes is Shampoo's pet who acts almost as if she understands her confidences and can read her journal on her computer. One can imagine [[OhCrap Nabiki's horror when she realizes Shampoo is the cat]]...
** Shampoo's revenge on Azusa: she shatters the frozen pool she is on, almost ''drowning'' her and Mikado. They still have to be hospitalized for pneumonia.
*** The fact Shampoo used the [[StuffBlowingUp Bakusai Tenketsu]] for it: Shampoo's chief weakness in canon is that [[GlassCannon she's relatively easy to take down once she gets hit]], but the training for the Bakusai Tenketsu has becoming MadeOfIron as a side effect. And Ranma doesn't know [[RapidFireFisticuffs the one technique that can counter that]] yet.

[[folder:''Redwall'']]
* DarkerAndEdgier ''Literature/{{Redwall}}'' fanfic ''Vengeance Quest'' is brilliant, but terrifying. The violence was one thing, but Guardcaptain Kiern's attitude is also creepy: he's pretty sure the actions of his sadistic co-workers are morally wrong, ''[[WellIntentionedExtremist and lets them happen anyway]].'' There's a scene where Captain Veneno rapes a prisoner in order to force her husband to spill the info they need, in front of Kiern, who's getting progressively more uncomfortable, but still doesn't do anything to stop him because there's no other way they'll get the information. Later on he talks to BigBad Nightdeath Longclaws about it, essentially asking to be persuaded that it was okay to do this. Brrrr.
* ''[[http://web.archive.org/web/20210308164225/http://www.rovl.org/vi/?p=display&e=8482 It Makes Me Happy That I'm Not Them]]'', set in an IronicHell, veers between the merely eerie and extreme {{Gorn}}. It works surprisingly well for a horror fic based on [[Literature/{{Redwall}} books aimed at ten-year-olds]], but it's still terrifying.
[[/folder]]

[[folder:''A Song of Ice and Fire / Game of Thrones'']]
* Becky_Blue_Eyes has written a number of stories in which the Martells get brutal revenge for everything they have suffered at the hands of Houses Baratheon and Lannister.
** ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/26513935 In the Parting of the Clouds]]'': After being savagely murdered, Elia and her children haunt the Red Keep as ghosts, bringing misfortune and death to the Baratheons and Lannisters. Cersei gets into several "accidents" that result in all of her sons being stillborn with crushed heads, as Aegon's revenge for being smashed against a wall by Gregor Clegane when he was a baby. Renly drowns as a child in Blackwater Bay. Stannis becomes ill and emaciated no matter how much he eats, wasting away to nothing. Tywin trips down the stairs of Maegor's Holdfast and impales himself on the iron fence. Jaime accidentally gets knocked onto a rack of swords and impaled by several of them, killing him instantly. Finally, Elia kills Cersei by squeezing her head until it explodes. Myrcella is the only survivor and her body is possessed by Rhaenys so she can become Queen of the Seven Kingdoms.
** In ''Fanfic/QueenOfTheMay'', a story inspired by ''{{Film/Midsommar}}'', while Elia and Rhaenys are allowed to live, Elia is forced to marry Tywin Lannister, while Rhaenys grows up in the castle knowing King Robert wants her dead and that she'll be forced to marry Joffrey when she is old enough, then "accidentally" killed as soon as she bears an heir. She wins the May Day dancing contest and becomes the May Queen, which allows her to ask for a boon that cannot be refused. But when Robert foolishly and cruelly refuses her request for herself, her mother, and her sister to return to Dorne, Rhaenys awakens her power as the May Queen and burns down the pavilion with most of the Lannisters and Baratheons in it.
*** Robert's IrrationalHatred of Rhaenys, a girl whose only crime was being the daughter of the man who stole his betrothed, is so extreme that it probably qualifies as insanity. When she is 15, he flat-out says to her face that only her mother and Jon Arryn stopped him from smashing her into a bloody pulp with his warhammer ''when she was a toddler''. Even when she becomes May Queen and asks to return to Dorne where he'll never have to see her again, he refuses, because in his mind, this would be escaping the "justice" that she deserves for her father running away with his beloved Lyanna. Of course, that just makes it more satisfying when she kills him.
** ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/28056714 That Nameless Agony]]'': After the deaths of Elia and her children, her mother Loreza goes on a RoaringRampageOfRevenge, personally killing everyone who was even tangentially involved in their deaths. She slashes Ashara Dayne's throat, smothers Lyanna Stark's newborn son, gives Jon Arryn a poison that takes a year to kill him, has Lemore slip greyscale into Stannis Baratheon's bedsheets, has Cersei Lannister and Selyse Florent poisoned during their pregnancies so their babies are stillborn, and hires a Faceless Man to kill Jaime and Tyrion Lannister. Finally she breaks into Robert Baratheon's bedroom and stabs him with a dagger steeped in paralyzing poison so he can't move, but feels everything when she stabs him to death, then kills Tywin Lannister before killing herself to be TogetherInDeath with her lost family.

[[folder:''Sonic the Hedgehog'']]
* ''A Rose and a Thorn'', a fic series on [=AdultFanFiction=].net. Especially during the second fic, in which Shadow is [[ColdBloodedTorture tortured]] by GUN, has nightmares about it after being rescued, and then proceeds to stab an illusionary Amy in both palms with knives during a fit resulting from his experience at the GUN facility.
* [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2609439/1/Through_the_Monitor Through the Monitor]], a Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog Fanfic that has characters from our world become characters in the Sonic universe, has as a main villain Void from ''Sonic Shuffle'', who in this universe is reinterpreted as a PsychopathicManchild. As a result, every scene he's in is NightmareFuel, but the scariest and most evil thing he does is in chapter 56, when he sinks a cruise ship, killing (almost) everyone on board FortheEvulz. Sure, [[spoiler:they were saved]], but it's still scary and a MoralEventHorizon.
** In chapter 13, the murder of the Thorndykes save for Chris, because they had the Green Chaos Emerald. It serves as Eggman's MoralEventHorizon and one of the fanfic's darkest moments.
* ''Fanfic/TalesOfSonicTheHedgehog'': Dr. Robotnik's VillainousBreakdown in chapter 41 is chilling to behold. Upon finding out Sonic and co. have beaten him to the Time Stones, rather than his usual LargeHam explosions of rage, he descends into TranquilFury, before descending into SuddenlyShouting, still with a smile on his face, before going back to a calm state and ordering Snively to ready his latest HumongousMecha. He spends the entirety of the ensuing fight with the Freedom Fighters alternating between calm and [[UnstoppableRage screaming at them like a maniac]], swearing he's going to use the Time Stones to [[CessationOfExistence erase Sonic from history]]. Snively and the Freedom Fighters are both unnerved by his demeanor, and it's so unsettling that WordOfGod confirms he ''creeped himself out'' as he wrote it.

[[folder:''Star Wars'']]
* This fic series ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/series/1290380 Avenging Naboo]]'', explores one possible interpretation of how Darth Jar Jar could have unfolded. What if, like Anakin, Jar Jar joined the Dark Side over his love for Padmé?
* In the 'fic ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/3772574/1/Going-Solo Going Solo]]'', Han Solo finds himself in one thanks to being stabbed in the arm and the tip breaking loose and lodging there. First, a MadDoctor sent to treat the captive is angry about his family dying on the Death Star, and he makes trying to remove the blade tip as painful as he can. Han is given a drug to amplify everything he feels and prevent him from passing out. The doctor ignores the use of a scanner and just digs and pokes through Han's arm flesh looking for the blade, all the while gloating about how much it's going to hurt and how much pain he hopes it's causing. He doesn't even manage to extract it before Han slams his good arm into the guy's head due to the blinding pain and is then knocked out protecting Leia. Later, the group escapes and gets aboard a ship bound for base. The problem is that though Luke managed to remove the knife tip, Han's arm is badly infected and must be operated on to remove the diseased tissue if he is to be prevented from losing it, or possibly losing his life. Han also has a raging case of pneumonia, so the general anesthetic on board can't be used to put him out, and there are no partial sedatives on the ship. The result: The ship's medical droid lasering off parts of Han's arm flesh, nearly to the bone in places, while Han lies fully awake, writhing and screaming and begging them to stop, with Luke, Leia and Wedge all trying to hold him down. Worse, Han is partially delirious by then and likely struggling to understand why in his mind he's being tortured more. Everyone is glad when he blacks out.
* The fic ''[[https://m.fanfiction.net/s/2696712/1/Important-Information Important Information]]'', with all the torture Han endures. He's beaten, whipped until his back is raw, burned on the raw flesh with a hot metal bar, quite a few bones are broken, and then there are the blood parasites...flesh-eating creepy-crawlies released onto his skin to burrow into and out of the open wounds. And the drugs that amplify the pain he feels. And when he still refuses to talk after all of that, he's repeatedly raped after being given a second drug to heighten the pleasure feelings. In the sequel, his captor even ends up torturing him after her death, apparently having transferred her life essence into him. She intends to push him to kill himself so she can take his body for herself. It takes a big BattleInTheCenterOfTheMind to finally get rid of her and then he still has to come to terms with the humiliation of the rape before he's able to be intimate with Leia again.
* When Darth Longinus starts fighting in Episode 10 of ''[[https://mega-poneo.deviantart.com/gallery/62840836/Tomica-Hero-Rescue-Pups Tomica Hero Rescue Pups]]'', he effortlessly slaughters an entire regiment like Darth Vader did in ''Film/RogueOne'', but also stabs the troops through the head, explodes their guns in their faces, throws a sniper round back through its sniper's head, catches missiles and blows them up unharmed, and would have killed Everest afterwards if Skye hadn't shown up.
* ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/6873613/1/Food-Scandal Food Scandal]]'' features Darth Vader finding out someone has intentionally contaminated food intended for the stormtroopers and dealing with that. As much as his victims deserve it, it's still unsettling:
** [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone Realizing she has unwittingly set Darth Vader on her direct superior and another officer]], the lieutenant that discovered the contamination tries to make it appear as if they sent her. Vader sees through her lie, gives her a light ForceChoke and throws her into a wall as a warning to never lie to him.
** One of the officers who didn't care enough to warn Vader is thrown at a wall with enough force to leave a dent. They are on the ''Executor'', a heavily armored Star Dreadnought... And Vader threw a human body with enough force to leave a dent in its ''inner wall''.
** Once the source of the contaminated food is identified, Vader goes there to deal with it personally... And stages a ''planetary invasion''. Sure, the invasion proves necessary because the installation is so huge a quick raid's needed to trap the culprits before they can escape, but ''Darth Vader'' has just showed up with a ship so huge it wreaks havoc with most civilian identification scanners, and nobody has any idea why.
** The main culprit's reaction when the protagonist confronts him with evidence of his guilt is to try and murder her on the spot. Good thing Veers had her wearing high-grade body armor, or she would have died.
*** The Stormtroopers assigned as the protagonist's bodyguards (who have been fully informed as to who she is) respond to her getting shot by subjecting the culprit to a NoHoldsBarredBeatdown. The culprit only makes it to the trial because the protagonist is able to whisper they need him alive.
** The Empire's treatment of the culprits: a public trial set in such way they don't get any shred of simpathy due their motivations of greed and egotism (motivations that hadn't been faked at all), with the obvious end result.
--->"The {{public execution}}s are media hits too".
** Given repeated exposure, the contaminant will wreck the liver and immune system of anyone who ingests it. Most people in Provisions don't care about the potential consequences of the contaminated food, [[InterserviceRivalry as they're Navy and the food was going to the Stormtroopers]].
*** The main culprit for the contamination was a former Navy officer in the Provisions department, and did it not for money but to stick it to the Stormtroopers. Meanwhile, Admiral Ozzel expresses similar sentiments - in front of Darth Vader. This is one of the reasons Vader will eventually kill him.
*** The contaminant ''actually exists in RealLife''. In fact, the story was written after the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2008_Chinese_milk_scandal melamine food scandal]], the author [[CatharsisFactor wishing he could sick Darth Vader on the responsibles before writing a fic in which he does just that]].

* Prior to making the above hack, Wakana made her entry for the 2014 Halloween Level Design Contest, known as the Nightmare House. It's scariness is conveyed right from the opening message box. "If you suffer heart problems, don't play this. Seriously. I won't be responsible of your death."
* A Youtuber named Joey Perleoni made [[WebVideo/MarioPartyDSAntiPiracy a slew of fake anti-piracy error screens]] for ''VideoGame/MarioParty DS'', all of which are unsettling in their own ways. Each one ends with a warning that piracy is a serious crime while, on the bottom screen, Mario and the gang are locked behind bars as the words "'''POWER OFF NOW'''" flash. Perleoni managed to get it even creepier with [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gsj9QrGedds this specific anti-piracy screen]]. Imagine, after seeing that creepy anti-piracy screen, you left your DS on, and your DS turns on an "anti-piracy self reporter" that connects you to law enforcement, while your DS tells you to turn yourself in.
* The beginning of ''Fanfic/TheSeaShadow''. Bobbery discovers a near dead Vivian, who is so badly beaten that ''he doesn't know what color her hair is because it's so coated in blood''. It gets worse later on it's revealed that [[spoiler:Beldam, Vivian's own sister, did this to her.]]

The BigBad is Lloyd's grandmother, Maetala, a caliber that makes Alucard look tame. After turning Lloyd into a vampire, she twists and manipulates him into giving up what little humanity he has still retained encouraging him to eat a boar alive is probably the ''least'' horrifying thing she does all fic long, and the results leave Lloyd, a canonical {{Determinator}}, a ''psychological wreck'' and makes it ''horrifically believable.''

* Bridgette's nightmare in ''Fanfic/{{Total Drama Comeback|Series}}'' begins with a blood-stained Bridgette huddling in the corner of the shack, crying in pure fear after having just witnessed Geoff's murder. Suddenly, she hears snapping twigs and the creak of a door. She also sees Ezekiel's toque. Is it him here to comfort her and get her away from the camp grounds, just like Geoff tried to do? Nope. Its a cleaver-wielding Eva, back from a killing spree of everyone in camp. Long story short: Bridgette's next!
-->'''Eva''': [[PreAssKickingOneLiner It's payback time, TRAITOR!]]
* There used to be a ''WesternAnimation/TotalDrama World Tour'' fanfic (now removed) called "Pineapple Rape". It involved Alejandro shoving a pineapple up Heather's vagina.
* ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/42633579 Privilege]]'' contains a nasty dose of RealismInducedHorror. The story is about the girls (mainly Heather and Courtney) being jealous over Duncan seemingly getting special privileges, such as a phone, being able to rest after challenges and his own stash of juice. Heather, deciding to teach him a lesson, swipes his stuff and hides it. No one thinks anything of it until the next morning, when they find Duncan in the mess hall pale and on the verge of passing out. When a concerned Geoff asks Bridgette if they know where [[WhamLine Duncan's medical bag]] is, it comes out that Duncan is actually a type 1 diabetic and what Heather stole was actually his medicine and glucose level monitor, meaning that Heather very nearly killed Duncan all because no one bothered to ask Duncan what the things were.

** And the most chilling thing is that the stories are presented in a way that's a {{Deconstruction}} of the Decepticon/Human pairing by showing how a 'Con might really act if they ever got attracted to a human; up to and including attempted murder, the complete fear on the human's part and the complete one-sidedness on the 'Con's part.

[[folder:''TheTwilightSaga'']]
* A fanfiction simply called ''Seven'' (deleted, but can be read via [[https://web.archive.org/web/20120408051936/http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4567400/1/Seven the Wayback Machine]]) takes imprinting and RapidAging to their logical conclusions, portraying Renesmee with the body of an eighteen-year-old and the mind of a seven-year-old. On her seventh birthday, she doesn't understand why everyone is getting her grown-up presents like a car, a wedding magazine, and a lingerie set (described in childish terms as "a bra and underpants that are very frilly and red"). After the party is over and everyone has left, Jacob (who she calls "Uncle Jacob") takes her into the bedroom and...[[MaritalRapeLicense gives her a last birthday present]]. And everyone--including her entire family--is not only okay with it happening (because she's not a "real" seven-year-old), but ''fully supportive of it'' and thinks it's beautiful and romantic. She's being treated like an adult and forced into a relationship she doesn't understand and never wanted, [[WifeHusbandry with a man she's only ever thought of as an uncle until now]], while she's still at the mental and chronological age to be calling her parents Mommy and Daddy and wanting to wear a princess dress for her birthday. Pass the BrainBleach, please.
** One of the most unnerving parts is that when Renesmee asks what they're doing, Jacob says they're playing a game, like he's talking to a child (which he is). He ''knows'' that she's mentally a child, but he doesn't ''care'', because she has the physical body of an adult, and that's all that matters to him. To him, it doesn't matter if she's upset, or confused, or scared, or hurt--because he's imprinted on her, they're soulmates forever, and he can do with her whatever he wants.
* ''Fanfic/ForYouIWill'', a hatefic that twists the concept of [[OneTrueLove imprinting]] into something horrifying: the imprintee, Melanie, is a psychopath, and now has [[HijackingCthulhu Hijacked The Werewolf]]... and he ends up [[MindRape liking it]]. Worse, not only has she got Embry to help her torture and kill people, she successfully convinces him to ''wipe out his entire tribe''.
** What's worse is that the author didn't even need to twist the concept- everything she based the fic on came directly from canon.
** What's even ''worse'' is that before Melanie orders Embry to commit genocide on his whole tribe, the two of them talk about how, instead of outright stopping them, Jacob presented them with a compromise, that, as stated above, is completely canon-compliant. They can torture, rape, kill, and eat whoever they want, as long as they ''try'' not to do it to innocent people and stick to criminals. Jacob and the rest of the pack think it's ''perfectly okay'' to let them do this, because they're doing it for the sake of the bond between imprinter and imprintee.

** If you thought that was bad, then [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HG-RWA1kbk0 this is miles above the rest]]. It's possibly even scarier than the actual appearance in the game.
*** If you [[FreezeFrameBonus pause at the right time]], after Flowey's stabbed Frisk with his vines, you can see ''[[https://imgur.com/gallery/8zbUqIx this]]'' [[{{Gorn}} image.]]
*** In true Flowey fashion, [[ParanoiaFuel he makes you think the video ended early and that the video has been taken down during viewing...]]
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sr4qEf-PwJs The Regressor,]] who's been reimagining Undertale in N64 graphics, finished the model for Omega Flowey. He still falls within the UncannyValley and finds new and [[SarcasmMode exciting]] ways to obliterate the fourth wall. Such obliterations include: [[MediumAwareness knowing]] ''[[MediumAwareness damn well]]'' [[MediumAwareness that he's not]] ''[[MediumAwareness supposed]]'' [[MediumAwareness to be a 3D model as opposed to a sprite,]] [[FastForwardGag playing the original cutscene before his boss fight in five seconds because "no one wants to see a static screen with text on it for 1:13 seconds"]], and '''[[TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou hijacking the OmegaStation 64's]] VanityPlate''' [[TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou rather than the opening exposition of the game itself.]] Also, the [[SensoryAbuse ear-piercing noises]] its attack motion makes.
* Whatever is going on in [[https://www.reddit.com/r/HELP_tale this AU.]] Its name is HELP_tale, and it involves a faceless Frisk receiving a locket from a corrupted, amalgam-esque Flowey and witnessing an unknown force (hinted to have something to do with determination) merging every timeline and AU together to corrupt the world. Its effects range from melting Napstablook into a puddle to combining EVERY POSSIBLE [[http://i.imgur.com/21wKdte.png Sans]] and [[http://i.imgur.com/SS30Vug.pngn Papyrus]] to create monstrosities. It is the closest thing the Undertale fandom has to an actual creepypasta, and it SHOWS.
** Turns out [[TotallyRadical Sanzy]] [[PuppeteerParasite Fresh]] might have something to do with it -- enough that his death and subsequent locket purification were enough to crash the computer the AU is running on.
*** In addition, "Everything's H A P P Y." is no doubt a reference to a [[VideoGame/EarthBound1994 certain]] EldritchAbomination.
*** [[NightmareRetardant Luckily, we have a little break featuring Babybones Papyrus,]] who tasked the character with finding a cute little cat that is dressed in his adult form's battle body. Nah, [[DisguisedHorrorStory just kidding]]. There is an EldritchAbomination here too. And it is heavily implied that the faceless character [[AllAnimeIsNaughtyTentacles engages in a certain anime cliche with it]](bear in mind that [[FridgeHorror Frisk is still a child in this AU]] ), or [[WhatMeasureIsANonHuman simply eats it alive.]]
*** Much of the fanmade music for HELP_Tale could qualify (depending) as many of the fanmade songs tend to play around with either audio glitching or DroneOfDread. Much of the HELP_Tale fan music could qualify as HellIsThatNoise.
*** TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou seems to be coming into play as the creator of the ARG is starting to have AudienceParticipation to decode Morse code and various coding languages, among other things, to get farther into the story.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m5AKfLwBqtE This]] vocal cover of Megalovania. To elaborate: this is the Fallen Child's VillainSong about how they gleefully sing about their crimes, sounding completely psychotic as possible when observing the details of the deaths of the monsters they've murdered.
** And they know Sans can't beat them, even taunting him about how [[IronicEcho he can't keep dodging forever.]]
* In a similar vein, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kz01opSNMb4 this vocal cover]] of Gaster's theme, with a bit of tearjerker mixed in. With the ominous tone and some of the lyrics, it gives the impression that just because his tale is a tragic one, Gaster is far from harmless.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-tM_MhC--o This fan-made video]], depicting a battle against Gaster. Highlights include Gaster kidnapping your friends and forcing you to kill them, the nightmarish forms he takes, and him ''[[TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou crashing the computer]]'' [[TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou in-video, removing everything from the desktop, except one thing:]] the game itself, but now it's named '''[[HostileShowTakeover Gastertale]]'''.
--> '''[[JumpScare YOU ARE NOT]] [[NightmareFace IN CONTROL]]'''
** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hHCAmB4ZWvo Here's another one]], though it's not as terrifying. It even ends on a happy note, [[EarnYourHappyEnding with Gaster's SOUL finally becoming whole again.]]
** David Near, who is already well-known for doing headcanon voices for most ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys'' characters, did [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uQ9xNqdhp_I his take]] on Gaster.
* Some fans decided to make their own Amalgamates, and most of them double as this and TearJerker. Some of them even have the primary characters fused together, and they're just ''horrifying'' to look at.
** Someone made a fanart series of [[https://m1nktank.tumblr.com/post/133643772690/so-uh-about-that-a-u hypothetical amalgamates]] with different characters, featuring a Sans/Papyrus amalgamate speaking in Wingdings (although Papyrus' translated text says "[[NightmareRetardant im so upsetti without my spaghetti]]"), an Undyne/Alphys amalgamate with [[ICannotSelfTerminate spears sticking out of its back]], and a Flowey/Frisk amalgamate with legs melted into the ground, weakly calling out "[[IWantMyMommy mMOOOOMMMM...]]"
** The most tragic of all of them would have to be [[https://ifunny.co/fun/hQGtdXnY3?gallery=tag&query=amalgamate this one]] (for the visually impaired, it's an Amalgamate of ''the Dreemurrs''.). ''Dear lord.''
** [[http://i.imgur.com/DRSxT9J.png Temalgamate.]]
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=782FEUg-kjY Omega Temmie]] from the Underswap AU. The picture and music are equally nightmarish.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=786bb0vGdJM The Dreemur_Reborn Tumblr's animation of a theoretical]] Chara fight manages to be intensely creepy from the start because of their determination to kill Asriel and re-insert themselves into his body. Special mention goes to the WhamShot in the middle of the fight where Chara reveals that Frisk had performed countless Genocide runs and sold their soul countless times. They then proceed to change their attacks into ''destroying all of the Frisk's [=SOULs=]'' over and over again and using the blast of their destruction as the attack. While it ends in a happy place, it's excellent in driving home how horrific Chara could be.
* There is a series of GIF files that are part of the "If Undertale Was An Anime" series showing Asriel placing Chara's body: it seems ok at first, until the humans are shown with glitching {{Nightmare Face}}s, before turning into black [[EldritchAbomination Eldritch Abominations with no features besides red grins and eyes. As Asriel is brutally murdered, Chara laughs insanely within Asriel's body, whispering "Such filthy creatures... I HATE YOU," to the humans.]] You can see a version of said scene (with added music and effects) [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lrlEupc2vD0 here]].
* Ever been curious as to what exactly Flowey did while experimenting with the timeline before you showed up? Well, this [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Won87NOuLJo comic dub]] offers a hypothetical scenario involving him and Papyrus that can send shivers down your very spine. It starts off innocently, at first...and then, when Papyrus denies Flowey's offer to help him show his "full potential", he traps him with vines and [[KickTheDog mocks him for it.]] The comic then cuts to Sans, who wakes up just in time to see the final result: Flowey is now ''controlling'' Papyrus'[[note]]who, by the way, '''[[AndIMustScream is fully conscious the entire time, begging for his brother to help]]'''[[/note]] body. And Flowey's laugh at the end...'''''[[HellIsThatNoise JESUS CHRIST.]]''''' And then, [[RewatchBonus if you listen very closely before the credits appear,]] you get...
--> '''Flowey''': Sweet dreams...Papyrus.
* [[http://ann13doodles.tumblr.com/post/143006199627/charas-melting-face-isnt-scary-they-need-to-step Don't tell Chara that their melting face isn't scary]]. It is a ''[[NightmareFace very bad]] idea.''
* If you ever wondered what Muffet would look like if she were closer to an actual spider, [[http://eqgrp-rainbowdash.deviantart.com/art/Muffet-570952426 then here you go...]]
* [[http://orig09.deviantart.net/3cca/f/2015/318/f/1/w_d__gaster__undertale__by_fadelurker-d9gpfa5.png Quite]] [[http://img.ifcdn.com/images/c3d5f42cb68137cbf25047eb2d4a98399d44375ba53e1eeba0d21edaf6a4719a_1.jpg a bit]] [[https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/2d/68/b4/2d68b46e89529f2e63d0b2201d4cde4e.jpg of]] Gaster's fanart tends to veer into this. Turns out being a sentient fragment of broken code, banished to the void of nonexistence while trying to claw your way back to reality, tends to make to an excellent subject for nightmares.
** Not having an officially revealed appearance isn't stopping it, either.
* The Fan-made game ''Determination'', meant as a direct sequel to a Genocide Run, not only calls you by the name you chose for the Protagonist from your Undertale game, but at one point, brings up ''[[TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou the name your computer is registered under.]]'' Doubly scary if you used your real first and last name when you set up your computer, as it makes it more blatant than ever that Chara is talking to ''you.''
* [[http://zarla.deviantart.com/art/UNDERTALE-SPOILERS-Good-intentions-573418942 If Papyrus 'fell down', and Sans took him to Dr. Alphys.]] It ends on the horrifying (and [[TearJerker tragically sad]]) creation of an Papyrus-Sans amalgamate named Sixbones. If the above fan-amalgamates are scary, here is made several orders more horrifying because you see how it happened.
* If you have the Colored Sprites Mod installed, some of the faces Flowey makes at the end of a Neutral Run become even creepier; you can see ''blood dripping from his eyes'' when he says Asgore's dead, and his petals are blood-red when he talks about how he'll show everyone "the real meaning of this world".
* This fanmade music video using Music/{{Halsey}}'s ''Control'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_rmS1XUi9Ss viewed here]]. Knowing the Genocide Run, it fits, a little too well.
** And then there's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MYcjPXwG064 this comic]] specifically tailored with the song in mind, highlighting the dark messages of the songs. It really hammers in the point of how much [[ArcWords control]] Frisk has over their own actions between themselves and [[HumanoidAbomination Chara]] during the Genocide run, also treating us to some of the worst parts of the run.
* [[https://youtu.be/XUYNKFbDY20 Your Battle.]] Where do we begin? This is a complete MindScrew of a battle. It's based around completing challenges to raise your Level Of [=ViolEnce=] to the maximum. Your health slowly deteriorates as you try to complete them. The music is an extremely disturbing and unrecognizable version of "Your Best Nightmare". Around LOVE 6 and 13, you get battles against a Gaster Blaster. One where you have to get it to hit itself with exploding circles, and one where you are in a ''VideoGame/SpaceInvaders''-esque shoot 'em up. The dialog box constantly smiles at you, in a similar vein to Flowey. Then it ends with a circle which describes itself as "A projection of yourself in your most vulnerable state." It's extremely odd and indescribable. The creator states that there is no clear message to it, and it's up to you to decide (it's [[TitleDrop your battle]], after all).
* The Unitale fan-made boss "It's You, It's Me" (No quotation marks). It is a battle where you fight a mechanical remnant of yourself; when you finally win the genocide way, the battle simply ends with the name flashing You / Me until the battle states ''IT'S FINALLY OVER''. However, if you try to run and successfully enter the correct password, you get taken to the {{Superboss}}, who will ask why you persist in fighting as the battle becomes more nightmarish and harder as it goes on. Once the battle is over, you are given the option to Fight or show Mercy, either way, the boss still dies and turns to dust. Fighting is showing you wanted to fight, Mercy is for putting the boss out of its misery and possibly wiping yourself out of existence at the same time. Truly a creepy boss fight indeed.
* Mandopony's FilkSong, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QM3hpHE28hw Chara]], about the slow corruption during a Genocide run. Thing is, is this Chara corrupting Frisk... or you corrupting both of them? Highlights include "You can't save a soul... that you ''lack''", "Don't expect me to shed any tears in the end", "It's done and nobody is free", "Don't expect any sympathy", and the entire last third mixing this with TearJerker.
-->What have I done?\\
Where is my home?\\
Were these deeds I've done\\
Truly my own?\\
I was so blind\\
But now I clearly see:\\
I only have one choice in front of me...\\
''Erase'' the guilt\\
''Erase'' the pain\\
''Erase'' what we've built\\
and ''erase this game''.
* [[https://soundcloud.com/anime_sonicmega/genocide-papyrus This]] "Genocide Papyrus" fandub is positively ''bone-chilling'', especially towards the end when he talks about ''exactly'' what his adversary is in for. BewareTheNiceOnes indeed...
* Remember the Regressor video mentioned earlier on the Flowey portion of this folder? [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kXery1Pnxjo He also made a video about the]] Sans fight. The way Sans just glides around without moving is pretty damn creepy, but it's at its worst at the end where we loop back around to the beginning room, only now there's blood all over the pillars and we get a zoom in on Chara's bloody and broken face, which is the focus for the next few seconds as they get thrown all over the place. The fact that it doesn't change expressions at all just makes it truly hideous.
* [[https://cephei97.deviantart.com/art/Undertale-AU-Tale-of-the-Fallen-Demon-638450867 In this AU]], Chara and possibly Genocide!Frisk are vessels for a demon god. And after absorbing the Six Human Souls, Chara's skin gets redder and the body gets deformed until the last SOUL is absorbed, making this AU Chara's true form rise.

[[folder:''Warhammer 40,000'']]
* ''Fanfic/TheShapeOfTheNightmareToCome''. Long story short -- perfect example of how to make ''TabletopGame/Warhammer40000'' even more packed with GrimDark than it already was. Just a few examples:
** Orcs goes into fight with Tyranids resulting in the two species merging into unstoppable New Devourer, that ''eats half of the galaxy''
** God Emperor Of Mankind dies only to be reborn in Warp as Star Father -- ''Chaos God of Order''
** Then there is the Ophilim Kiasoz that destroys entire star systems just by passing through them.
** The Nex (Keyboard attempts to bite editor's fingers off and snags a thumb, new editor takes over) the merest mention of which causes the scroll the story is written on to turn into a swarm of spiders that nearly devour the author of the story before a sentry gun destroys them.

[[folder:''Welcome Home'']]
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=REs53b_dhHA This animatic]] set to Wally's already creepy rendition of ''Beautiful Dreamer''. Wally is sitting on the floor and petting Julie's head, but the footage is repeatedly interrupted by {{Ominous Visual Glitch}}es. Then black tears start running down Julie's cheeks, but she doesn't stop smiling. Finally at 1:01, there is an abrupt cut to Julie sprawled on the floor, seemingly dead, and then an image of Wally with bloodshot eyes and a human hand sticking out of his mouth. The last shot of the video is Wally kneeling before the eye/window of House.

[[folder:''Zootopia'']]
* [[https://stedilnik.tumblr.com/post/141582134816 This poster]] for ''Z-topia'', a hypothetical movie concerning a rabies outbreak in Zootopia. It shows Nick and Judy holding shotguns and covered in blood while standing in front of a brick wall covered in informational flyers, biohazard symbols, and graffiti that says "DON'T GET BIT" and "KILL ON SIGHT." One poster simply says "BEWARE" with a drawing of a snarling wolf, frothing at the mouth. A flyer behind them lists the symptoms of rabies and says "If you experience any of the above, seek medical help," but the words "seek medical help" have been crudely crossed out, and below them is written in red ink, [[YouAreAlreadyDead "YOU ARE DEAD."]]
-->'''Tagline''': Try everything...''to survive''.
