* ''Anime/PokemonTheSeries'': Mimikyuu is a Pokémon who uses a cloth covering, resembling a distorted version of a Pikachu, to hide its true form, and doesn't let anyone see it without it on. Meowth is able to catch a glimpse of its true form sometime in the anime, and the result temporarily ''kills'' him.

* ''VideoGame/ANNOMutationem'': The various StoryBreadcrumbs and other lines of dialogue fully infer that the setting is full of [[SupernaturalFiction supernatural elements]], However, [[NGOSuperpower The Consortium]] is able to reveal what they've discovered through multiple {{Data Pad}}s. One is [[EldritchLocation Hinterland]], a bleak landscape that is found through AnotherDimension filled with unsettling CreepyCrosses. Another is the [[UnwillingRoboticisation Mechanika Virus]] that was previously mentioned to have caused a pandemic across the world, with the repercussions of how the victims transformed weren't seen, but the details of how it occurred was explained in readable documents with BodyHorror traits described. Nevertheless, The Consortium very obviously makes it their priority to capture and contain all the variants that were brought out by the Limen crater, keeping them in containment at their facility with a full report of their capabilities and the incidents each of them were involved in.



* ''VideoGame/EarthBound'': Whatever the hell Gigyas has become, it's explicitly described as 'indescribable'. What you see is some kind of baby warped into an angry ghost - but how it actually looks and attacks is literally incomprehensible to the party, which is really bad because it justifies the massive amounts of damage they receive from attacks they don't even understand and thus cannot block or counter. And during the third phase, [[YouCannotGraspTheTrueForm since they can't see the true form of Gigyas]], whatever he does puts him out of reach of all your party's attacks and they can't find him or connect their psychic attacks. [[spoiler:By the end, you have to resort to ''praying'' to a higher power, one who is even stranger than Gigyas, to smite him]].

* ''VideoGame/HorizonForbiddenWest'': When exploring Ted Faro's bunker, you never actually see what became of [[spoiler:Faro after his experimental immortality treatments mutated him into a monster]], only a holographic diagram of the reactor room covered in the MeatMoss that [[spoiler:he turned into]]. All we see is Ceo walking into the reactor room for a few seconds, then walking out visibly disgusted and [[KillItWithFire ordering the entire room set ablaze]].

His subordinate starts out confused, then sees what the Ceo saw, before finally accepting her otherwise blasphemous orders.

* ''LightNovel/OthersidePicnic'': Many of the events and entities from the Otherside that Sorawo encounters are so strange and bizarre she literally cannot describe them, save for things like "Impossibly blue" to describe her altered MagicEye. And in one chapter she encounters a journal by the mysterious Satsuki, and her magic eye allows her to read the text, implied to be BlackSpeech, which summons Satsuki or at least something in her form, that speaks to her.

* ''VideoGame/{{Myst}}'': The enigmatic race known as the "Ronay" discovered how to create "linking books" that would transport one to other dimensions and universes, and a small contingent split off, to eventually arrive on Earth, calling themselves the "D'ni", after their world came under danger. The arbitrary language[[note]]Not their conversational language]] used to write these books, the "Great Words", known as "''gahrohevtee''", describes the universe, its conditions, and what exists there. They have been described as extremely complex, almost "Kanji-like", and beyond concrete or even abstract concepts. Cyan, the creators of the ''Myst'' series, have never released any characters used in this fictional art of writing.

* ''Webcomic/AwfulHospital'': The protagonist's inventory is depicted as a {{Video Game Interface Element|s}, but she [[https://bogleech.com/awfulhospital/046 perceives it]] as a [[BagOfHolding tote bag]] with ten infinitely large interiors occupying the same space.
