4	* The scene of Pinocchio being [[PuppetPermutation turned back into a puppet]] by Puppetino. The real horror sets in during the panning shots showing all the other puppets in Puppetino's collection when you realize that Pinocchio is far from his first victim.
5	** To explain, Pinocchio is forced to dance, ''screaming and begging to stop'', as he's slowly turned back into a puppet. This scene has been compared to a rape scene, and was in fact ''altered'' in the version that was broadcast on television.
6	** The [[CreepyCircusMusic creepy, deranged music]] doesn't help.
7	** And all the while, Puppetino wears SlasherSmile after SlasherSmile. And he's enjoying it.
8	* [[BigBad The Emperor of the Night himself]] can be awesomely scary for younger viewers -- he looks like a classical devil, except he's giant, has four arms, and nothing but red mist under his cape. The [[Creator/JamesEarlJones awesome voice of his]] doesn't hurt.
9	** Not helping his case are the many {{Jump Scare}}s he performs throughout the entire film.
10	** His introduction, where he shapeshifts into the people Pinocchio met in the Land Where Dreams Come True.
11	** There's also how, as is shown to Pinocchio are the audience, the Emperor has turned ''hundreds'' of people into lifeless puppets, one of which is '''a mother and her child'''.
