History NightmareFuel / WelcomeToNightVale

** The ending. Frances inadvertently erases his lover and ''her entire universe'' and has to live with the knowledge of both that, and that his universe's version of his lover doesn't care about him.

** It turns out the Blood Space War is having negative effects on the timeline, including CosmicRetCon of various people and places in Night Vale. The ending reveals that Carlos is one of the victims.

** THE BROWNSTONE SPIRES messanger Barks Ennui is a living cartoon dog out of the UncannyValley.

** When Kevin talks about the various residents of New Desert Bluffs he mentions some teenager from Alabama who went out the front door of his frat and ended up in town, judging from Kevins narration of his arrival and the residents attempts to [[UncannyVillage welcome him to town]] it couldn't have been a pleasant experience.
** The fact that New Desert bluffs now has counterparts to both Carlos (Charles the Theologist) and THE BROWNSTONE SPIRE (The Mudstone Abyss) can't possibly be good, considering how helpful Carlos is with solving Nightvales various problems, how evil the spire is and what counterparts from Desert Bluffs are usually like their doppelgangers could be extremely dangerous.
** Kevins various anecdotes about the religion of The Smiling God are pretty creepy.

* The station management, especially in their first appearance, can be pretty scary due to their [[EldritchAbomination]] status.

* Episode 44, "Cookies", has Lauren coming on air and announcing StrexCorp buying the Girl Scouts, and hinting that they're going to either harvest the girls for their talents as StrexCorp drones, or pick through them to find members of Tamika Flynn's rebellion. She also indirectly threatens Cecil's niece, Janice, likely as punishment for him mocking station management on the air. Cecil is clearly unnerved when Lauren brings Janice into things.

* Episode 120: "All Smiles' Eve". Kevin and Lauren tell one of their favorite Smiling God holiday stories, about a family who just couldn't smile wide enough for people to see it. [[spoiler:So the daughter takes a jagged piece of glass and gives everyone a GlasgowGrin.]]

* Episode 98: "Flight", which features a science lesson for Night Vale's kids, which basically ends up with cutting to their heart, then put wires into the wound and hook it up into a car battery. Cecil warns that this could lead to general movement problems and [[BodyHorror sagging of the insides]].

** Not to mention that due to the distortions in reality during this arc Cecil [[spoiler: forgets that Carlos even existed, going into his office and finding an empty room]]. It's temporary, but still.

There are... ''things'' on this page. Things that should not be there. Things that are likely to keep you awake at night if you think about them for too long.

--> '''Cecil:''' You can’t bring the fox with human eyes, [[GhostStory the one that they used to tell stories about at camp]]. The one that you saw running on [[HumanlikeFootAnatomy two legs]] [[SuperSpeed beside your car]] [[ItWasADarkAndStormyNight one foggy night]] when you were coming back from a party in college, and the next day you found out your grandmother died that night.

* Episode 94: "All Right" has a monster that can hide anywhere in your house and kill you at any moment. [[UnusuallyUninterestingSight Normal Night Vale episode, right?]] Well, there's also the fact that, if you wear headphones, all of the episode intentionally plays from your right ear. Cecil says he made it this way so you can keep one ear on the brodcast, and one off so you can hear [[TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou any small noise that might be the monster.]]

** [[spoiler: In which we learn that former intern Maureen is leading the army of Strangers into Night Vale, under the direction of her 'boyfriend' Chad. In her voicemail message, she's pretty blasé about the fact that the Strangers are [[HumanoidAbomination Humanoid Abominations]] from another dimension that's heavily implied to be ''Hell itself.]]

** The fact that this episode confirmed the two things the fandom were the more afraid of. 1)[[spoiler: The Night Vale people are being turned into the Strangers...[[MindRape And the transformation is not pretty]].]] and 2) That beagle puppy? [[spoiler: It's not that he is an EldritchAbomination (That was hardly going to be a surprise to anyone anymore) but that he is as horrible as the Smiling God...If not worse!]]
** The bit were Cecil speaks to one of the Strangers [[spoiler:(The one revealed to be Francis)]]. The Stranger speaks back...But their voice doesn't come from their mouth, [[SurrealHorror but from a glass of water.]] And then the voice comes from the lamp. [[ParanoiaFuel And then Cecil's left shoe joins in...]]
** Oh, and their plans? [[spoiler: Their "I want nothing" is completely literal. The government, the laws, the people's possessions and the people themselves...They want to destroy every single thing.]]

** Oh good, the strangers are gone after the weather, and everything's OK-ish again. Only... [[spoiler: The Faceless Old Woman Who Secretely Lives In Your Home suggests that maybe, just maybe... they chose to leave. [[{{ParanoiaFuel}} And they might choose to come back. At any time.]]]]

** One of the people with a deer mask takes off the mask... [[spoiler: AND IT STILL HAS A DEER FACE BENEATH THE MASK! Not to mention whatever the fuck's going on with them and The Men Who Are Not Tall/Short]]

* From the book, when Jackie and Diane go to [[spoiler:the library]].Highlights include great things like [[spoiler:an arm oozing liquid through a bookshelf,a face with a grey,tongue like thing in it's mouth and a librarian choking Jackie till her neck extends and her face turns purple,while their JOINTS ARE AUDIBLE.]]

* In Episode 77.they describe how a [[spoiler: stranger might be outside your window. Or in your shower. Or around any corner. And we never figure out what them/he actually can, or will do to you. Chilling.]]

* Episode 73 - Triptych: [[spoiler: We finally get to hear from Kevin again, and it's from three separate times in his life; one Pre-Strex, where it becomes a horrifying ForegoneConclusion that this honest radio host with pride in his town is going to be warped into the Smiling God's mouth piece; one during the Strex Takeover of Night Vale, where we find out that it was the conversation he has with Cecil is directly responsible for Lauren and Daniel being sent to Night Vale and accelerating the takeover; and the final one some indeterminate time in the future where Kevin is wandering an endless wastescape as a broken shell of a man, possibly [[Really700YearsOld aged beyond his ability to tolerate it]] with only his own damaged psyche and the constantly ebbing influence of the Smiling God for company. This last one crosses over with AndIMustScream, since he seems incapable of death and is ''fully'' aware of just how damaged he has become under Strex's influence.]]

** It is just a beagle....[[BalefulPolymorph right?]]
* Episode 87: The Trial of Hiram McDaniels

* Street Cleaning Day, an event so terrifying it even makes the City Council run in fear, and sends the usually unflappable residents of Night Vale into bunkers.
* The ending of "A Story About You."
* The ceremony for the induction of the Eternal Scouts, complete with hordes of [[CreepyChild creepy children]] that drag people off, never to be seen again.
** To say nothing of the ''outcome'' of the Eternal Scouts induction ceremony, where apparently the two young men who completed all their badges are now [[AndIMustScream completely encased in crystal.]] Let's keep in mind that these boys weren't volunteers; registration into the Boy Scouts is 'mandatory and random' according to an earlier episode.

* The vague, yet menacing, government agency, which is constantly watching you and can disguise themselves as shrubs, trees, doors, windows, and even [[ParanoiaFuel a passing breeze.]]
* The [[BlatantLies "adorable meow"]] of Khoshekh the Cat.
* There's something unsettling about learning in "Valentine" that the state government reacts to Night Vale's pleas for help as bizarre practical jokes.
