** There’s also the group of snarling adult men [[FanDisservice wearing only diapers]] leering from their cell at Chuckie.

* The first aired episode ''Tommy's First Birthday'' has Angelica's silhouette when she's placed in the crib and she approaches the babies.

* The entire climax of ''WesternAnimation/RugratsInParis'' with the Rugrats creating havoc and destruction as they make their way to Notre Dame while in a Giant Reptar Mech is really, really funny, [[AdultFear it's also seriously horrifying]]. Again while everything is PlayedForLaughs, they're causing millions of dollars of damage in collateral damage, and while the rest of the cast are somewhat safe inside the mech's head, Angelica is stuck out in the open inside the mouth the whole time. She's caught hanging on for her life many times, squirted with a strange substance, and even jettisoned hundreds of feet into the air at the top of the Eiffel Tower (that's over a thousand feet in the air!) only to be caught at the last second by Chuckie. Not to mention that they are being chased by the villain's henchman in another Mech, who knows damn well that they're in there and is showing no concern for their safety. [[FridgeHorror When you think about it]] the Rugrats aren't intentionally destroying the city, [[ChildrenAreInnocent as they are children and don't know better]], but this man does and he's [[WouldHurtAChild essentially trying to harm (or in worse case scenario, kill) a bunch of toddlers and infants!]]

(''Just as Tommy and Chuckie are about to watch the robot grab the boy, Stu turns off the TV. The babies look up at him and gasp.'')\\

(''Chuckie follows Stu, but Tommy stays behind, turns the T.V. back on, and gets one last look at the movie; he watches in horror as the robot is carrying the terrified boy in his clutches'')

** In one of Tommy's attempts to prove his dad's a robot, he uses a plastic screwdriver to states that he and Chuckie have to find the bolts that open his chest (relating this to the robot on TV, which had bolts where a man would have nipples). He then undoes his father’s nightshirt and notices his father’s nipples. He then attempts to use his plastic pipe wrench to twist them, which causes Stu to immediately wake up screaming in pain, and in turn scaring Tommy and Chuckie into screaming themselves. Yikes!

(''Just as Tommy and Chuckie are about to watch the robot grab his son, Stu turns off the TV. Tommy and Chuckie look up at him and gasp.'')\\

(''Chuckie follows Stu, but Tommy stays behind, turns the T.V. back on, and gets one last look at the movie; he watches in horror as the robot is carrying away his frightened son'')

'''Boy on TV''': Oh, no! Dad! You're a robot!\\
(''Just as Tommy and Chuckie are about to watch the robot grab his son, Stu turns off the TV.'')\\

** Tommy and Chuckie are convinced a sleep-walking Stu has somehow been converted into a robot.

* There are moments of this in the episode "Real or Robots" where Tommy and Chuckie are convinced a sleep-walking Stu has somehow been converted into a robot, especially the scene where Stu chases them and the ending exchange:

* "Party Animals", in which the babies walk in on a costume party and become convinced that the world has changed. Throughout the episode, a man dressed as a baby (Didi's cousin Bucky) is chasing the babies and yelling at them to pull his finger. Worse, he continues to do this, even when it is plainly obvious that the babies are dead terrified. Eventually the babies manage to trap him and lock him in the bathroom. A while after the party has ended, Angelica wakes up and has to go to the bathroom, but Tommy and the gang try and stop her, thinking that the world is still "topsy-turvy". Angelica leads them near the stairs and shows them that the world is completely normal (the adults are just vacuuming and relaxing) and that it was probably all in their heads. She then goes to where the bathroom is, opens the door... [[JumpScare and Giant Man-Baby jumps right out]], shouting at her, '''"HEY KID, PULL MY FINGER!"'''

* Worst of all is Angelica's [[NightmareSequence would-be]] [[EnfantTerrible baby brother]] from the episode, "Angelica's Worst Nightmare". It begins with Angelica hearing a baby crying. She finds her parents fawning over the new baby, saying how "precious" and "adorable" it is while not knowing who Angelica is. After the mom and dad leave, Angelica talks to the baby, and, much in the same matter as Tommy and the gang, Angelica's new baby brother can talk. However, he's more like ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'''s Stewie minus the evil humor and with a horrifyingly deep and raspy voice, and tells Angelica that this house isn't big enough for the both of them, and says that Angelica (the "old baby") should be gone permanently. Angelica tries to flee from him, but the baby keeps finding her, and growing every time there's an encounter between them. The dream enters its horrifying climax as Angelica's now [[AttackOfTheFiftyFootWhatever Godzilla-sized]] baby brother catches Angelica in her getaway car, wondering "what a toy car would taste like". It all ends with Angelica screaming, "No! You can't eat me, I'm your sister!" with the baby replying, "WELL NOW YOU'RE NUM-NUMS!" and putting Angelica ([[ExtremeOmnivore car and all]]) in his dark cave-like mouth.

** The monster was voiced by the same guy who voiced Krumm on ''WesternAnimation/AaahhRealMonsters'', by the way. There's a dose of NightmareRetardant.

** It might just be that Mr. Friend isn't meant for infants. Angelica, a toddler, gets her own Mr. Friend and loves him, and is completely baffled by the sheer horror the babies feel around him. Though then again, this is ''[[EnfanteTerrible Angelica]]'' we're talking about...

** Tommy pinching Grandpa's uvula. The babies think it's a bug inside his throat and go to extract it with Tommy's toy pliers. What worse is you see the crumpled-up uvula afterwards, pulsating in pain. Ouch!

* "New Kid in Town," where Tommy and his friends join up with this fat boy named Josh, who decides to play a game called "Pillow". He swings to the highest point he can and then tells the babies he's not trying to jump over them...but he's going to jump ''on top'' of them. This kid looked heavier than all four babies ''combined'', and he was going at least as high at the swing bar. Had it not been for Angelica intervening when she did, imagine what could have happened. More disturbing still, this episode appears to justify slavery as long as the master doesn't try to kill his or her slaves. No matter what, slavery is wrong and illegal.

--> '''Mr Friend:''' Oh boy, a brand new friend to meet! You can call me Mr Friend! You'll never, ever be bored again!

** The doctor introduces himself by saying "Don't you remember me? ''I'm your friend, [[TheSilenceOfTheLambs Dr. Lector!]]''" Can't fault Chuckie for being scared. NOPE.

** The second dream, while not nearly as memorable as the above sequences, still is rather unsettling at some points. It starts off normally, the house gets full of AlienGeometries, at which point the background music becomes distorted, and the babies enter a large hall filled with strange pictures of Tommy on the wall. Some of them are just goofy looking (such as a picture of Tommy with a stretched out neck), others are just...bizarrely creepy (among others, there are such things as a bunch of Tommy heads stacked on each other, a Tommy who's body is his head, a Tommy with ''six eyes'', etc.), to say nothing of poor Chuckie falling screaming into a void...

* In "What The Big People Do", Tommy and Chuckie have a dream about being grown up and going to work. All is well and good, until they are called into The Boss's office. They have to first walk down a hallway with giant pictures of past bosses and are thrown into the the boss's room by the carpet in the hallway. The doors slam shut, creepy organ music plays, and the entire room is enshrouded in shadows save for the boss' chair, which makes a [[HellIsThatNoise horrible creaking noise.]] The Boss is the adult version of Angelica, who threatens to have them "[[LargeHam FIREEEED!]]", and then flames shoot at Tommy and Chuckie from these two statues she has in her office. They flee while the the past bosses climb out of their portraits to stop them. Angelica calls in some creepy robot minions, and all the time insanely creepy music is playing while the angry-faced robots close in on them. Had to be one of the creepiest things in Rugrats ever.

-->'''Chuckie:''' Why is he outside, why isn't he inside playing with his toys?

-->'''Chuckie:''' What about his parents? ... You can't mean...

* "The Last Babysitter": With only Susie's older sister in charge, the power goes out, and Tommy and Susie think that there's a monster in the dark house. At one point, they sneak upstairs to read Susie's book of monsters, one of which "eats bones."

* "Party Animals", in which the babies walk in on a costume party and become convinced that the world has changed. Throughout the episode, a man dressed as a baby is chasing the babies and yelling at them to pull his finger. Worse, he continues to do this, even when it is plainly obvious that the babies are dead terrified. Eventually the babies manage to trap him and lock him in the bathroom. A while after the party has ended, Angelica wakes up and has to go to the bathroom, but Tommy and the gang try and stop her, thinking that the world is still "topsy-turvy". Angelica leads them near the stairs and shows them that the world is completely normal (the adults are just vacuuming and relaxing) and that it was probably all in their heads. She then goes to where the bathroom is, opens the door... [[JumpScare and Giant Man-Baby jumps right out]], shouting at her, '''"HEY KID, PULL MY FINGER!"'''

* "Toy Palace" had an actual working ''time machine'' and a life-size toy robot got inside after hijinks ensued. It was transported back to the Revolutionary War in the middle of an ongoing battle with no way to return. Tommy and Chuckie, an ''infant and toddler'', could've ended up lost in the past forever in the middle of a '''''bloody battle!''''' Just imagine the trauma ''that'' would wreak on their innocent minds...

** Seeing the image of Angelica's entire skeleton and Bob the x-ray technician as he takes pictures of her insides was quite creepy.

** "HERE I AM! DON'T BE BLUE, AND I WILL SING A SONG FOR YOU!" (to the tune of 'London Bridge') "LAAA, LA LA LA LA LA LAAAA, LA LA LAAA, LA LA LAAA, LA LA LA LA LA LAAA, LA LAAA LA LA!"

** "HERE I AM! DON'T BE BLUE, AND I WILL SING A SONG FOR YOU!" (to the tune of 'London Bridge') "LAAA, LA LA LA LA LA LAAAA, LA LA LAAA, LA LA LAAA, LA LA LA LA LA LAAA, LA LAAA LA La!"

** "I WILL SING A SONG FOR YOU! LAAA LALA LA LA LA LAAAA-LA LA LAAA-LA LA LA-LA-LA-LA-LA!"

* In ''"Chuckie vs. The Potty"'', Chuckie has a nightmare where his potty-training is like death row, complete with screams of ''"Not the chair! NOT THE CHAIR!"'' Just to make it even creepier, the sequence features ''all'' of the babies--Phil and Lil appear as the prison guards that march Chuckie to the chair, and Tommy is an [[DissonantSerenity eerily calm]] monk who tries to console him. The bit ends with Angelica as the executioner, who pulls off her mask to reveal one of the creepiest SlasherSmile and EvilLaugh combinations EVER, and flushes Chuckie down a giant toilet.
