* What Walter does to Jake’s mother. Even though we only see the aftermath, it’s still quite horrifying to witness Jake’s emotional breakdown at finding his mother’s charred remains, especially as you realise that the boy is now an orphan.

* Walter's [[CompellingVoice ability to make others do as he says]], even against their will.
** The nature of how Walter [[CompellingVoice commanded]] his two mooks who [[YouHaveFailedMe failed him]] to "kill each other". He orders them to do it while they're in a restaurant, so it's likely they could've ''eaten each other''! Either way, maybe it's best that the spectacle was [[NothingIsScarier off-screen]].

* Deschain using a tarantula as a visual aid for all the creatures of hell that will break loose if the tower should fall. Not helpful if you have arachnophobia. Also terrifying if you remember another, iconic Stephen King villain who is known to be a spider....
