Nightmare Fuel / Digger

Go To

  • The acolytes in Ganesh's temple. And the fact that Murai was apparently once one of them.
    • Although not all of them have their eyes sewn shut.
  • Helpful to our hero as they might be, the first appearence of the skins is downright horrifying.
  • The bandit did kind of ask for it, what with trying to kill Digger and all, but Shadowchild's grin when it descends on him is still terrifying.
    Shadowchild: Excuse me? You have shadows on your heart.
    Bandit: What the—
    Shadowchild: Dark ones, too. You stink of old regrets.
  • The entire sequence with the cave and the heart.
  • "The Good Man is dead. Who killed the Good Man?"
    • The settings backstory about The Good Man and the Black Mother are based on a fringe Christian cult that exists among the homeless children of Florida in the real world. The basic idea is that the Virgin Mary herself murdered Jesus and allied herself with Satan.
  • Stop!
    Stop, Fool!
    Listen to me, Eaten, I will give you anything you desire! Do you wish revenge on those who cast you out? It is yours. Comfort? Luxury? I will give you a place chief among my servants! You will feast in the dark like never before!
  • Ed's murder of Blood-Eyes:
    Ed: So, late at night, skin-painter tucks little one in, and creeps to bed of Blood-Eyes, and tears out throat of warrior in her sleep. Is easy. Is being terrible, is so easy.
