History NightmareFuel / TimBurton

** In the part where Pee-Wee is driving at night while Mickey is sleeping, Pee-Wee finds the road signs which somewhat trolls him by intentionally changing while Pee-Wee follows the road sign, only to change it into a sign that says a cliff is near, (WARNING! This may make your ears bleed.) casuing Pee-Wee and Mickey to '''''fall off with the car [[SensoryAbuse while both Pee-Wee and Mickey scream in terror]] due to that fact that they’re gonna die,''''' thankfully though, Mickey’s car has a built in parachute in it, and they get down safely, but still, the fact that Pee-Wee and Mickey are about to die and almost commit suicide, that’s like something out of a horror movie! And the screams from Pee-Wee and Mickey due to going to die doesn't help. However, [[FromBadToWorse it gets worse]].

** See also the sequence where Pee Wee's bike is initially stolen; the formerly smiling, cheery mechanical clown he'd shackled his bike to suddenly adopts a pretty terrifying leer and a cackle sounds off.

** The whole movie has an indefinable creepy vibe to it, really, even the non-scary scenes. Pee Wee's (and Francis') ManChild nature is can really be unnerving more than amusing. And yeah, Music/DannyElfman's Circus of Fear BGM ramped things up.

* Jim is a more mundane example. [[itchInSheepsClothing On the outside, he's a clean-cut and well-to-do kind of guy, but get his girlfriend's attention and the illusion shatters]], revealing [[CrazyJealousGuy a murderous thug who won't stop until the source of his hatred is dead]].

* A RealLife example would be his stories about his brief stint at Disney animating ''Disney/TheFoxAndTheHound'', which involve graphic scenes of animalistic outbursts and gory self-mutilation. Of corse, he often concludes this with ''[[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments "You]]'' [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments try drawing a cute fox with Sandy Duncan's voice for two years!!"]]

* The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QiAonyJIV_A scene]] where Jack Napier gets his first look at his new makeover, the creepy atmosphere is only compounded when Jack Napier [[LaughingMad begins]] [[HellIsThatNoise cackling]] after it seemed like he began sobbing, and [[NothingIsScarier then the lightbulb is smashed and we don't get a clear look at Jack's disfigurement.]] The final laugh is just the icing on the nightmare cake...
* The [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KE50BPPvzEs scene]] where Vicky splashes off the Joker's fleshy makeup. He covers his face and pops back up laughing and looks like a giant cackling skull with the skin torn right off!
* One particular [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9n4s-lkYm0w scene]] that can creep people out is when the Joker takes one of his men by the hand and electrocutes him to death with a buzzer eventually causing the skin to melt off his face.
* The Smylex commercials, and the female newscaster who died with the Joker's smile on her face. And the fact that this was the ''short'' version.

** Then of course, we have the Witch. Sure, she's a LargeHam who arms herself with candy cane ''nunchucks'' at one poing, but her creepy appearance, candy cane nose, and bone-chilling shriek are enough to give any little kid nightmares.

* ''Hansel and Gretel'', a short that was shown only once on Disney Channel[[note]]The Disney execs deemed it to scary for younger audiences, so it never aired again[[/note]], on Halloween 1983. There's a very creepy-looking Gingerbread Man. Let's just say its eye meets a candy cane.
