* Ralph runs into ''Slaughter Race'' to rescue Vanellope just seconds before the game is scheduled to reboot, which would kill them both. Remember from the last movie that [[FinalDeath death is final]] if a character dies outside of their own game.

* Ralph runs into ''Slaughter Race'' to rescue Vanellope just seconds before the game is scheduled to reboot, which would kill them both. Even though the viewer [[LikeYouWouldReallyDoIt knows they'll be fine]], it's suspenseful to watch the outside of the game, with the countdown calmly progressing, before Ralph finally breaks a hole in the wall.

* [[spoiler:The bunny in the "Pancake Milkshake" game exploding after being fed one too many pancakes is a subtle example. The toddler screaming with horror after witnessing the whole thing exemplifies this]].

* For what exactly someone else was bidding a steering wheel to Sugar Rush arcade? To replace a broken and[=/=]or missing part. And he got outbid. Guess what happens to the characters from that particular arcade.

* Arthur, the Insecurity Virus. When unleashed, [[ParanoiaFuel it can spy on you and use your insecurities against you]]. An example of this power is when it copies Vanellope's glitch, breaking down ''Slaughter Race'' and causing it to be rebooted. The result is Ralph getting a ''huge'' WhatTheHellHero from Vanellope who temporarily burns bridges with him. That's when the virus appears, copies ''his'' [[ExactWords (emotional) insecurities]] of letting Vanellope go, and unleashes the viruses throughout the Internet. Said Ralph viruse copies are creepy looking enough, but their groaning of "frieeeeend" and empty stares showcases them as [[ZombieApocalypse something completely different]]. And then they form a [[AttackOfThe50FootWhatever colossal Ralph]] to take Vanellope by force, and it's composed of hundreds of Virus Ralphs crawling over top of each other like a mound of ants while spewing red electricity through sunken empty eyes. Ralph said it better himself:

** The last shot it fires of the Ralph Virus before the scene cuts away includes [[https://i.imgur.com/lckgq0b.png this lovely image]] as a FreezeFrameBonus. It's supposed to be the 8-Bit Ralph face we see plastered on the computer screens of users affected by the virus, but the combination of the color distortion and the close up propel it into NightmareFace territory.

** The brief switch in perspectives when Vanellope gets caught under a falling, rebooting building can also be pretty unsettling, especially for first responders or viewers who've survived instances of building destruction. Just as she crashes and gets knocked out, the camera goes black, and every audible sound is only white noise and distorted sounds of rebooting (the countdown being the clearest sound in the scene), only coming back into blurred focus when Ralph finds and pulls her out of the wreckage.
