9	* There are a few examples in ''Webcomic/BookOfLies'', but The Girl in the Tower takes the cake.
10	* Charby from ''Webcomic/CharbyTheVampirate'' is a perfect example of this.
11	** Mye, Hex, Tony, Claire and a large number of other characters qualify too.
12	* Chelsie Warner of ''Webcomic/{{Concession}}'' appears to be a cuddly anthropomorphic lamb-girl in a pink dress. On her first appearance, she stabs Artie Crowley in the eye with a crayon. Shortly thereafter, [[spoiler:she has sex with him when he's too delirious to realise what he's doing. When he wakes up, he is horrified not only because of what he's done, but because "Chelsie is actually a '''[[UnsettlingGenderReveal boy]].'''" It's recently been revealed that Chelsie's hypersexual behaviour is related to a form of childhood bipolar disorder. She became significantly less creepy with proper medication and hormone treatment, after being adopted by the local (quite definitely ''non''-paedophile) preacher. The WhereAreTheyNow epilogue shows her in her late teens, [[UsefulNotes/{{Transgender}} fully transitioned]], apparently recovered from her unfortunate past, and calling Father Tim "Dad".]]
13	* ''Webcomic/TheCyantianChronicles'': [[MageSpecies Sirac]] siblings Quinn and Collin, especially Quinn. While Collin might accidentally scare people with his telepathy, flying, and phasing through solid objects, his sister often does it intentionally. She can also teleport through another dimension that only she can reach and has "Oulies" as friends, who are beings who are trapped between life and death in a realm that only Quinn can see. Quinn's invisible friends are real.
14	* [[spoiler: Pandora]] is introduced in this form in ''Webcomic/ElGoonishShive''. She's notably somewhat an aversion since her form changes to fit her mood, so she only looks like a child when she's being playful and mischevious. [[spoiler: She's a lot creepier when she's pissed.]]
15	* ''Webcomic/{{Erfworld}}'': Parson Gotti suspects that Wanda was one of these. [[spoiler: Before he learns that Erfworld has no children.]]
16	* ''Webcomic/GunnerkriggCourt'':
17	** Zimmy is introduced as an over-the-top creep: she's verbally combative towards the protagonists, her science fair entry is [[http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=77 "an abomination"]] the reader [[TakeOurWordForIt never gets to see]], she seems to have [[BlackEyesOfEvil no visible eyes]], and a body-snatching demon is afraid of her. This gets thrown on its head in a later chapter, when [[spoiler:the revelation that she's been BlessedWithSuck turns her into a sympathetic character who abuses people so they'll avoid her, for their own safety. Which gets flipped on its head ''again'', with the revelation of [[LoveMakesYouEvil how Zimmy treats her best friend and why]].]]
18	** The main character, Antimony Carver, is an interesting example. The audience sees her when she's alone with her best friends, and thus sees that she's pretty well-adjusted for someone with such an unusual childhood (and the missing parents). Eventually, however, it's revealed that most of her classmates see her as a creep -- because all they see of Annie is her [[EmotionlessGirl impassive public facade]] and the fact that she never socializes with anyone besides Kat.
19	** Annie's father, Anthony, comes across much like Annie (in FlashBack): a normal guy to his best friend Donny, an emotionless robot-boy to everybody else. Apparently Annie looks like her mother and acts like her father. Must be torture for poor [[UnluckyChildhoodFriend Eglamore]].
20	** Jack, when he's [[spoiler: under DemonicPossession.]]
21	* Aradia from ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'' is probably the most "classic" example of this trope in the comic, but most of the trolls can fall under it due to some rather TroublingUnchildlikeBehavior. [[spoiler:Caliborn]] is also pretty disturbing.
22	* Mua, the antagonist, from ''Webcomic/KissWood''. She's enslaved a huge amount of the population and she wants Sul to become another. Her introduction involves her showing one of the slave camps to Sul, watching a slave trip and a guard killing him (believing he's no longer able to work and therefore useless); she laughs at the sight and says there's an opening place for him.
23	* Disbelief the Shadow Child from ''{{Webcomic/Roommates}}'' is a barefoot creepy little boy wearing white (and having NinjaProp {{Living Shadow}}s). When he was introduced he basically [[MindRape KO]]d the cast with "[[ImNotAfraidOfYou I don't believe in you!]]"... when he [[AsLongAsThereIsEvil returned]] he [[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-Kings-War-82-455114603 gleefully]] [[http://asherhyder.deviantart.com/art/Roommates-Kings-War-83-455118648 offered]] to do the same with their enemies. He is an AnthropomorphicPersonification right out of the TimeAbyss so he quite possibly invokes and exploits the trope intetionally.
24	* Posey in ''Webcomic/TheSanityCircus'' is a Scarecrow who embodies pediaphobia -- fear of dolls -- and so always has a creepy, flawless, eternally-young appearance. Even though she's an EldritchAbomination and can consume people's souls with a smile.
25	* ''Webcomic/ScaryGoRound'' had a [[http://scarygoround.com/index.php?date=20050123 story arc]] based around such a character, known [[EveryoneCallsHimBarkeep simply as]] "The Child", who is a [[VaguenessIsComing harbinger of change]] and cause of discord. It turns out that The Child is being raised by [[spoiler: someone who looks like Michael Jackson]], turning it into a [[spoiler:HarsherInHindsight]] that meant the end of the comic had to be rewritten.
26	* In ''WebComic/{{Sire}},'' Susan causes Anna to appear to be one of these, hijacking her body, sitting quietly on her bed, and pulling all the hair out of its head, slowly counting each one off. Her parents promptly send the innocent Anna off for help.
27	* ''Webcomic/SomethingPositive'''s Pamjee elevates it [[https://somethingpositive.net/comic/in-the-corn/ to an art form]].
28	-->'''Pamjee''': Why is it always, "You gotta stop gettin' us banned from haunted parks [[BringMyBrownPants for making actors pee]]" and never, "Good job gettin' creative with a snow cone"?
29	* ''Webcomic/{{Unsounded}}'': The Plat ChildSoldiers that Duane led during the Aldish civil war aren't...quite right in their heads. A combination of being put on the front lines of combat despite their young ages and their short lifespans cause them to alternate between being utterly adorable and completely offputting. The biggest example would be when they attempt to cheer up Duane at the end of Ch.14. They say that his reputation of never having lost a lad is still unblemished because [[spoiler:Jon, Duane's second in command]] who was bisected, was 18. To them, he was old. So they cheerfully sing about how Duane has never lost a lad while Duane stares on in despair.
30	* ''Webcomic/WhiteRooms'': Claire was found by the group standing in the middle of the night in one of the rooms, singing "Row Row Row Your Boat". She says she’s been there, unable to move, for “3 birthdays” but is apparently unaware of the monsters that the others have faced at every turn in the day they’ve been there, and claims that reaching "golden bell room" is the way out of the rooms.
