* "Pigmalion": the HalloweenEpisode, in which Trip Larson (voiced by MichaelKeaton), pork and [[LiteCreme pork-product]] mogul, falls in love with Luanne, ends up going insane, tries to turn her into the products mascot and tries to turn them into pork products on a ConveyorBeltODoom. Luanne gets out okay. Trip, however, ended up hacked to pieces after an electric shock clears his schizophrenic mind -- and makes him realize too late that he's on the kill line.

King Of The Hill is a pretty laid-back cartoon, but it is made by the same guy who introduced the world to ''Beavis and Butthead'', so there are some moments that come off as nightmarish.

** The Omega House cult of the same episode is also really Nightmare Fuel-inducing. A ManipulativeBitch takes in young women seeking a place to be among others and effectively brainwashes them into becoming complacent slaves for a jam-making farm. Seeing a starved Luanne trying to ask Hank for help is both depressing and disturbing. And what's more, as Dale notes, [[FridgeHorror they've been doing it for some time now]]. And while Hank and the guys manage to save Luanne, Peggy, and the latest group from being enslaved, the leader Jane isn't arrested or detained.

King Of The Hill. Sure its a cartoon about the daily lives of a dysfunctional texan family and you probably wouldn't expect any nightmarish moments from a funny likeable sitcom like this. But you'll be suprised to see just what nightmare-inducing real life situations the characters always encounter some of them might just leave a couple of good scars "Ill tell you what."
