* The way that Baal deals with the guy who challenges him at the Gates of Sescheron. Dear lord, is that a messy way to die. At least the Necromancer has the decency to explode his enemies after they die.

** The way Baal interrupts the official's attempt to reason with him with a simple, loud shout of "'''''ENOUGH!'''''". He shouts so loudly and so sharply that it echoes across the mountainside with enough clarity to sound as if he's just shouting it over and over from every possible angle.

** Jazreth, the Sorcerer, after defeating Diablo, slowly lost his sanity and snuck into the Arcane Sanctuary. Here, he was corrupted by demons and possessed by the spirit of Horazon. He becomes the Summoner in Diablo 2, and is responsible for the overrun of the palace and the harem with demons that kill everyone.

** The other area is the Cathedral of Light, the most holy place of the Zakarum faith, now known as the Durance of Hate as a result of Mephisto's evil twisting the place inside and out. You go all the way into a place full of [[DemonicPossession demonically possessed people]] (and demons as well), up to and including [[CorruptChurch all of the high priesthood of the Zakarum]], who have turned into outright ''demons themselves''. And Archbishop Lazarus (one of the main villains of the original game and the one who released Diablo) was once a part of this very council. It truly hammers home that no place, and no one, is safe from the corruption of Hell.

** The Rogue Monastery gives us a proper cathedral showdown against demons and corrupted Rogues, the Jail area being particularly nightmarish, as you will encounter the mutilated bodies of Rogues on various implements of torture scattered about the place. Try not to think too hard about [[ColdBloodedTorture what these poor women went through]] at the hands of the demons before they died. The Paladin was not exaggerating when he says that "this is no place for a warrior to die." In addition, Andariel, the Maiden of Anguish herself, awaits down below with bodies of more Rogues impaled on stakes.

* Going to the Rogue Monastery and facing a tonload of succubi is just plain wrong and horrible. Even worse if you face the Maiden of Anguish herself. Heaven have mercy!
** Those aren't succubi. They're what happens to Rogues who get corrupted by Andariel, including Blood Raven, the original Rogue from the first ''Diablo''. And the Rogues that ''didn't'' fall to her corruption? You can see their bloody and often naked corpses on stakes and various implements of torture scattered all about the place.
