History NightmareFuel / TheMuppetChristmasCarol

* The scene where Jacob Marley's face appears on the door knocker and starts wailing Scrooge's name.
** It could be NightmareRetardant with Jacob’s scream almost immediately following the door knocker’s change.

** The song the two of them sings is supremely creepy when you take the time to read the lyrics.

* Every scene with the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come, which is one of the reasons [[ShooOutTheClowns Gonzo and Rizzo abandon the narration till the finale]], partly to let the scene play without comedy, but also because they were creeped out. Even Gonzo assures the audience that they'll return in the finale. [[spoiler:Thankfully, they do after Scrooge wakes up from his nightmare.]]

* Before the Marleys appeared, Scrooge was enjoying his snack when the bell suddenly rang a bit. He looked up at it, then heard a creak from the stairs. But thought nothing of it and resume eating, until it rang again, this time much longer. After it stopped, the fire went out. When we see a luminous light from downstairs, along with an ominous chorus.

--->Doomed, Scrooge!
--->You're doomed for all time
--->Your future is a horror story
--->Written by your crime
--->Your chains are forged
--->By what you say and do
--->So, have your fun
--->When life is done
--->A nightmare waits for you

* While the [[CrowningMomentOfFunny moment where Gonzo accidentally sets Rizzo's tail on fire has been known to send the audience into fits of laughter]] it has also been known to terrify small children.

** Well she's not that bad in some scenes.

** A bit of FridgeHorror involving the Marleys; there's a point where they [[EvilGloating gloat evilly]] over their evicting an entire orphanage and laugh at the poor orphans' misery...then they ''[[MyGodWhatHaveIDone shudder in horror at what they just said]]''. Their punishment ''[[AndIMustScream must]]'' have been awful if they feel ''that'' guilty about it.
*** This is FridgeBrilliance if you've read the original story. The ghosts that Marley meets up with outside are all repentant because their punishment isnt just being forced to wander for eternity carrying the weight of their cruelty, they are now exposed every minute of every day with the misery they could have helped alleviate but just ignored. But they can't ignore it anymore, and eternity is a ''very'' long time...

-->'''Rizzo:''' Ooh, that's scary stuff. Should we be worried about the kids in the audience?
-->'''Gonzo:''' Nah, it's alright. This is culture.

** This adaptation also went all out with the chains; they not only appear out of nowhere at one point to constrict Scrooge, but at the end of the number they slither out from the darkness and slowly drag the Marleys into the shadows.
