* [[spoiler: Dr. Dillamond losing his voice.]] We never get any details as to what actually happened, and just the idea that [[spoiler: The goat equivalent of a successful, middle-aged man]] could give up something so important is really quite chilling. When you stop to consider the implications [[spoiler: of whether or not he can actually REMEMBER being a sentient creature]]…things get even worse.

* TheReveal in the musical that [[spoiler: Elphaba turned Boq into the Tin Man (so he could live despite lacking a heart)]] looks like something out of a horror movie. The music, along with [[spoiler: Boq]] [[GoMadFromTheRevelation going mad from the revelation]], really cements the mood.

Added DiffLines:
* The scene discussing everyone's reaction to [[spoiler: Elphaba post-melt down]] doesn't give much detail, only that it was horrifying, vomit inducing, and that they aren't going back into that room to clean it up any time soon.
* The bizarre inter species orgy in the philosophy club turns from crude to eerie as the host narrates cryptic prophecies along this.
* One of Elphaba's first words was after being found outside in the darkness, "horrors."
* The Wizard's mechanical head contraption in the musical. It was deliberately meant to be creepy and loud.
