* After [[spoiler:Mona]] was revealed as the first A and institutionalized, the girls thought it was over and they could get on with their lives ... only for the A messages to start again.

* Aria being BoundAndGagged in a crate in season 3's HalloweenEpisode, [[spoiler: along with Garrett's lifeless body literally inches away from her face]]. On top of that, she was about 30 seconds away from being thrown out of the back of the train, but the other Liars conveniently arrived in time to rescue her.

* When Emily's slight overdose of her mother's painkillers in ''Turn of the Shoe'' causes her to slam head first into the wall of the pool during a swim meet. She remains face-down in the pool with blood pouring out of head until one of her teammates pull her out. What makes this spookier is the fact that we are shown a P.O.V. shot of her vision turning blurry and dizzy prior to her slamming into the wall, complete with steady drum beats and the swooshing sound of the wall approaching.
* How Alison was murdered. She was attacked from behind so hard that she knocked out. Then, [[spoiler: she felt being buried '''alive''']] and couldn't do anything to save herself. [[spoiler: Alison manages to crawl out of her grave and survives, but is still terrified of someone that is tormenting and trying to kill her.]]
