6	* The very idea of gaining a cutie mark that could prove detrimental to Equestrian society and the world at large. Snowy Summit was cast out of society for having a cutie mark depicting a [[AntiMagic nullwood tree]], and only realized his destiny when he performed a HeroicSacrifice to stop [[{{Necromancer}} Grogar]]. Years later, Tarnished Teapot got a poison joke flower cutie mark and unknowingly gained the ability to exude passive HatePlague magic that affects everyone around him.
7	* Gorgonzola goes through parental worries when her adopted pegasus filly, Grey Owl, wanders off and gets captured by {{Giant Spider}}s to be their next meal. Tarnish and Maud have to brave a dark cave with spiders waiting to ambush them at every turn.
8	* Maud and Tarnish visit the Ghastly Gorge to study the WildMagic there, [[OhCrap when they realize they're at ground zero for an erupting volcano]]. The rest of the chapter has them ''running for their lives''.

12	* The aftermath of the unicorn's fighting is nightmarish, but a particular standout is the poor pony who was killed by being encased in molten glass.

15	[[folder:Enter the Dragon]]
16	* An entire family of pygmy dragons was randomly targeted and killed by [[HumansAreBastards pony looters]], [[WouldHurtAChild hatchlings included]], simply because they were greedy for treasure. The only survivor was a lone dragon egg, which would hatch into Boomer, because it had the sheer luck of being a late-bloomer.
17	** The DeadlyGas said looters used on the dragons was described as a necrotoxin that causes [[CruelAndUnusualDeath cell death]]. Imagine if Boomer's egg had decided to hatch ''just then''...
18	** Spike's more distressed about the entire situation than Twilight is, because [[FantasticRacism almost everyone sees dragons in general as greedy, asshole-ish treasure hoarders]]. Twilight stops to think about Spike's predicament [[FridgeHorror and comes up with unsettling conclusions]].

21	[[folder: Princess Twilight Sparkle's School For Fantastic Foals]]
22	* What's been done to Adventus, particularly in the context of what we know about the Ascendancy's 'ascension' technique. His soul has been twisted and spliced, without his consent, leaving him in constant agony and he can't even remember his own ''name''.
23	[[/folder]]

25	[[folder: The Mask Makes The Pony]]
26	* The Grandmother-Monster. It looks like a nice old lady, but is actually a horrific spider-creature that kidnaps foals and eats them.
27	[[/folder]]
28
29	[[folder:Eigengrau]]
30	* The entire depiction of life inside the House of Dark, with just how abusively manipulative the adults of the House are.
31	* The [[CruelAndUnusualDeath fates]] inflicted upon the six ponies (including Darling) Grogar sends to bring Dim in.
32	[[/folder]]

34	[[folder: Eigengrau Zwei]]
35	* The fate of Schwarze Wasserüberquerung, the entire population melted into a meat soup for defying Grogar.
36	* Blackbird's experience after being subdued with pepper dust. Blinded and with many cuts and abrasions, she forces her way free of being BoundAndGagged, causing more abrasions that then get filled with pepper and salt from her tears and sweat. She ends up curled up in a TroubledFetalPosition in a pool of her own vomit, silently begging for it to end.
37	* What Dim does to Snowbird in retaliation for the above. We don't get direct descriptions, but Dim explains that he reckoned Snowbird should experience all the torments he threatened on Blackbird[[note]]Rape, [[ColdBloodedTorture torture]], branding, plucking, and [[EyeScream enucleation]][[/note]]. While ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice. Oh, and there's a reason the tropes RasputinianDeath and CruelAndUnusualDeath ''[[CruelMercy don't]]'' apply here, at least to begin with.
38	* EyeOfNewt is taken to its logical conclusion, and Dim comes upon a freezer containing a part-butchered dragon and unicorn, as well as a variety of miscellanea, including minotaur horns. Note that all of these are sapient creatures in WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic.
39	* The fate Dim inflicts on Captain Hoarfrost. It's technically the bends, but to a massively extreme degree that it causes his horn to explode, amongst much agonising description.
40	* Chapter 77, where a peaceful cult compound is attacked by a false-alicorn, which slaughters hundreds and badly wounds most of the party, including killing Bard. The sheer amount of damage, all lovingly described, required to bring it down is just the icing on the cake.
41	[[/folder]]

43	[[folder:Foalsitting Follies]]
44	* [[BigBrotherBully Radiance]]. He constantly torments [[BrattyHalfPint Nuance]] for picking on Corbie, their pegasus sister, by beating up Nuance and once kept submerged in a full bathtub, making his unicorn brother ''nearly drown''. He also flings emotional abuse at Nuance, calling him a weakling and a SpoiledBrat [[KarmaHoudini who never gets punished "enough"]]. What's terrifying about this is the deconstruction of Radiance's BigBrotherInstinct towards Corbie - his violent protectiveness came from developing a soldier's mindset via [[LittleBrotherIsWatching watching the Royal Guards train]]. Combined with lack of proper parental supervision and his natural Earth pony strength, Radiant became just another bully who's too focused on punishing Nuance no matter what, not even caring that his methods also makes Corbie cry, or that Nuance also suffers from his own issues in addition to Radiance's bullying... and he showed not an inch of remorse for what he did. Twilight and the other adults are understandably horrified about this, and Pebble, who earlier [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere jaunted out of Twilight's castle]] just to get away from Nuance, ends up sympathizing with him and later calls Radiance "heartless" out of disgust after she sees everything from his perspective.

47	[[folder: House Of The Rising Sunflower]]
48	* There's apparently a subspecies of Parasprites that's taken to living inside a hydra's neck and feeding off the [[HealingFactor regenerating flesh]]. The hydra, for its part, is often completely insane from agony.

53	* What they find in the supervisor's shack of the sweatshop fire, the den of a serial [[PaedoHunt paedophile]].
