** The worst part of all is their actual personality and motivations. [[spoiler: Hemlock's defining emotion is ''happiness'' of all things. He's someone who takes the expression "follow your dreams and you can do anything" to its most disturbing extreme. The whole reason he took over a criminal empire and planted surveillance on everyone? So he can be happy and positive all the time. And he genuinely feels he's justified in ''everything'' he does, from murder to blackmail to international smuggling, because it's all to make him happy, and we're all told as kids that being happy is a good thing, right?

[[spoiler: HOWEVER, it is hinted that Vulper is just playing around]].
** However, Vulper's personality is a bit of a [[NightmareRetardant Nightmare Retardant]] mainly because, well, he's so damn [[LaughablyEvil funny]]! His Sanity Slippage coupled with his EXTREMELY trollish behavior actually made him [[EnsembleDarkhorse the most popular characters in the game]] despite the creator clearly wanting to make him one of the most [[HateSink hated]]. It also helps that he sorta turns out to be a [[TragicVillain Tragic Villain]].
* Schaden Freude's [[RageBreakingPoint Rage Breaking Point]]. This guy LITERALLY bursts on fire and suddenly dons a Slasher Smile that makes even Vulper's look tame! It makes you think who really is the true Red Devil in this game! Granted, unlike [[FauxAffablyEvil Vulper]], Freude [[AntiVillain isn't really evil and is only behaving that way when he is backed into a corner]].
** Also, Freude has BY FAR the SCARIEST breakdown in the entire game! You thought he was on fire before, this guy practically ERUPTS when he loses it! Just LOOK the eyes! They're complete soulless!
** However, [[spoiler: if Phoenix presents the wrong evidence during ANY of Freude's Rage Breaking Point statements, he BREAKS Phoenix's badge resulting in a [[BadEnding Bad Ending]]. This fanon game does take place before Apollo Justice where Phoenix has his badge revolked, but to have it literally break in his face? Wow...]]
*The whole ghost mess at the Mapletrope Hotel is pretty frightening especially from the story that is told. Not to mention hearing a gunshot and a loud scream at 1 in the morning is pretty jarring as well. [[spoiler: Later subverted as there isn't really a ghost as it was just a hat and a coat on a coatrack.]]
*Cedric Mapletrope's [[spoiler: [[VillainousBreakdown Villainous Breakdown]] (though he isn't really much of a villain). This guy is screaming out of the top of his lungs until his face TURNS BLUE!!! He passes out shortly after that but regains himself to confess to the crime. It was a shame since, as stated about, he [[AlasPoorVillain wasn't that bad of a person as he shot Nyph by accident and truly cared for Maris and didn't mean her any harm.]]]]
*The Vulper interrogation situation during the third case. [[spoiler: There was a blackout and two men were trapped in a room with a homicidal killer. If that doesn't invoke paranoia, then nothing does. Later subverted that Vulper was knocked out and there was an even BIGGER maniac in the room just waiting to plan his next move! Poor Warren...]]
* [[spoiler: You have to admit, when you first heard and thought Brisbane had been murdered, it's pure fear that there is someone out there that can actually take down Brisbane. Seeing him in the hospital in a coma just beaten up is not only frightening, but damn [[TearJerker tearjerking]] as well. Even if Brisbane has been nothing but an asshole during the majority of the game, not even he deserves that.]]
* You're out 5am in the morning ready to go to work when you see a tall man wearing a white mask just turn to greet you and turn the other way. Even a strict person like Weever couldn't help but be frightened at this person.
