* The energy storage tank at the end of Power Plant for Teams Sonic and Dark was responsible for quite a few nightmares in younger players ([[ThatOneLevel in more ways than one]]). You're trapped inside a giant metal cylinder and have to climb all the way to the top, being chased by a rising wave of energy that looks quite a bit like lava and burns you on contact. Not only is it intense and claustrophobic, but it's all too easy to screw up and die.

** A more subtle aspect of what makes Neo Metal Sonic so scary is his audible SanitySlippage; he rants about ''Sonic'' being "the copy" [[DoubleThink whilst also noting he was created to destroy Sonic]], and as he loses the fight goes into a full-fledged VillainousBreakdown, ''screaming'' about how he is "the real Sonic!" "Metal Madness", then, is a MeaningfulName; Neo Metal Sonic has ''completely lost his '''mind'''!''

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YB25ZDKsaVg Final Fortress]] is perhaps Eggman's most massive AirborneAircraftCarrier to date, and when you're in the level, you're surrounded on both sides by dark mechanical corridors, flashing lights (which do not light up the place), metal conduits, and caution markings. All of this happens thousands of feet in the air, in the middle of rough weather. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tB1Z338gcsU The music]] is quite possibly the most mournful, ominous, and heavy piece of music [[WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids ever made for a kids' game]].
* Neo Metal Sonic's transformation into [[OneWingedAngel Metal Madness]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FaCFMFOGR6Y in Last Story]], and his scene in the cutscene before Sonic goes Super Sonic, can both be scary to younger audiences: perhaps as a form of AudienceSurrogate to that, the six-year-old Cream is shown during the scene being hugged by Big due to how terrifying it is to her (probably doubles as a mini SugarWiki/{{Heartwarming Moment|s}}).
** Even Eggman's army of Egg Pawns and Metal Sonic's army is fleeing the scene in sheer terror when Metal Madness appears.

* Egg Emperor, Eggman's ImplacableMan of a final mecha. The BossBattle takes place on the aforementioned Final Fortress.
* The last leg of Lost Jungle. It starts with a group of black frogs, which summon rain that kills plants, trying to drown you in the swamp by making the platforms beneath your feet disappear. Then, when you get away from them, a '''giant alligator''' bursts out of the swamp and starts chasing you. The rest of the level is a mad dash towards the finish line across a series of vine swings, with the alligator snapping at your heels all the way, where one mistake will likely mean instant death.
* Arguably, the ghosts in Hang Castle/Mystic Mansion. They appear out of nowhere, have a creepy laugh, simply fade when hit (just before reappearing in a couple of seconds), and even the characters admit that they make absolutely no sense. And as if that wasn't bad enough, imagine dropping into a room swarming with them, with walls that appear to be made of TV static. And in case you were going to get vindictive and try to Chaos Inferno all of them... they're immune to Team Blasts. Have fun.

** [[EldritchLocation Mystic Mansion]] in general. With switches that make statues and paintings come to life and attack, hallways that never end until you find the way out, doors leading into ''nothing'', and the aforementioned TV static room, the entire place is one massive MindScrew.
