* ''WesternAnimation/ScaryGodmother'': At the film's climax, when Katie takes Mr. Pettibone's hand and he falls to pieces, all four of the older kids scream (as the 3 older boys [[JumpScare scream at the]] [[TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou camera]] with [[NightmareFace bugged-out eyes]]), [[JumpScare but it zooms in on Katie's uvula to show ''it'' screaming, too]]. Welp, [[NeverSleepAgain good luck trying to sleep tonight, viewers]].
