Nightmare Fuel / DragonFable

• The Chaos Weavers are damn creepy...
• The Water Orb quest chain may be very Lovecraft Lite, but it's a pretty accurate homage to the original story, what with Sanity Slippage, Mind Rape and Body Horror galore (The Hero that is). The hypnotised Hero comes very close to turning over to The Dark Side, and the whole internal mind struggle can be seen every single step of the way. The climax of the Water Orb saga has little Aquella literally begging The Hero not to listen to Kathool as they just stare vacantly at her.
• That cutscene between Drakonnan and Sepulchure, where Seppy is telling him that he's going to pick him apart, piece by piece. Cue Sepulchure transforming into some unseen, huge monster, and a large NOOO! appear on the screen in bright red. The same fate happened to Sabrina.
• Mogloween 2011, depicts a Zombie Apocalypse. In the "Last Year" quest, survivors are seen taking refuges in a boarded up house against an infestation, before one by one they are turned over until only a random Hero is left. Then in "48 Weeks Later", the infestation slowly spreads, where the Hero must escort Andy to safety, where they must sneak past countless hordes of Zarbies. This is one of the darkest questchains in game.
• The Earth Orb quest where after the Entropic Dragon attacks the camps, the victims are seen turning into Entropic minions after being exposed to the Earth dragon's flames.

  In the same chain, the scene where you realize Trey Surehunter has no eyes.

• What the Irismancer reveals about just what price Sepulchure paid for his power.

  Irismancer: His weapons did make him stronger, but poisoned his mind further. Then they began to poison his body. The armor that he wears, the armor of Doom Knights... It actually wears him. He has become something else, bound to the darkness.

• A blood curdling scream can be heard shortly before the end of the final cutscene in 'Stranger Letter'. It's one of the most terrifying sounds in Dragon Fable. Baron Valrith is not taking the failure of his minions easily. Adding onto the creeping is when you find out what he did to the minion, which turns out he fused with them and has his face protruding from the minion's head.
• When you enter the 'Serenity Gone' cutscene in 'Serenity Before Storm' war, what you hear is pretty close to the generic Falconreach Inn melody. Pretty close means it's just plain wrong like as if somebody took the usual melody and did something horrible to it. And yes, it sounds rather chilling.
• Roirr may not be on the same level of power as either Sepulchure or Baron Valtrith, but he's still a sociopathic, soul-devouring body surfer with many centuries of experience over them, who uses many forbidden magics the other two villains likely wouldn't even conceive of using, even if they did know about them. And he's currently wreaking havoc on another continent entirely unchecked! The art of fleshweaving Roirr practices? Well, even Sepulchure in Book 3 doesn't want anything to do with it!
• The 2014 Mogloween Event, "Creepy girls are made of candy", featuring Anabiel the creepy doll, is one of the most disturbing things to ever come out of the game.
• Serenity's death. It's so thoroughly gruesome and graphic, then it leads on into the creation of Caitiff, basically the Shadow Reaper of Doom plunged into Serenity's corpse. Whenever it speaks, it does so from the skull on the axe, not the corpse's own mouth... It isn't really possessing the body, but using it as a shield just like Ash said.
• "Castle Nostromo", a huge Shout-Out to Alien, has you play as Symone, where she explores the castle, all the while being stalked and hunted by an unknown creature. You are warned to tread carefully, and if you step on a stain on the ground, the dark creature captures you with a loud screeching sound. At times the creature can be seen quickly darting across the background or screeching in the distance... If it weren't for the game being a point and click RPG, this quest might as well be a Jump Scare.
• The Amityvale Book 3 quest-chain, which deals with Raven's tragic backstory, has Safiria disintegrating her enemies in a burst of red blood, and Frydae suddenly biting and rapidly feeding on Thursday.
• The Shapeless in 'The Beginning of The End' is a Nightmare Fetishist dream come true. It's about as tall as a house, it doesn't have a face or skin, just a series of mouths mounted on legs.
• The reason for above Shapeless's existence, a cabal of sociopathic mages created the Shapeless as a false God for their pawns to worship, as a basis for forming the Shapeless Empire, when it "harvests" (read:eats) people without magic, supposedly to bless the harvests, in truth it transfers them into the Magisterium's chamber where they can be turned into living mana batteries for use by the higher ranking Magisters, until they inevitably burn out and said magisters need new batteries. It's enough to make one think the Rose might actually be right.
• Roirr's whole storyline in the epilogue of 'The End of the Beginning'. The creepy lullaby doesn't help... His Dark Magic mentor, Secundus is equally horrific in appearance.
• The "Level 999 Storage Closet". In Book 2, if you pick the lock, you can find a group of knights tied up, who claim to be the "Knights Of The Pellet Table" and tell you that the Knights Of The Pactogonal Table are actually a theatre troupe in disguise. It's Played for Laughs, you state that Captain Rolith will find them and set things right (if they're telling the truth.) However, if you go there in Book 3, several years later, you can see their skeletons in the corner of the room, still tied together...
• Caitiff. One of the most dangerous foes The Hero has ever fought, who's killed Baron Valtrith, corrupted your own Dragon over to its side, and the most unnerving part: Caitiff is a Doom Weapon possessing the carcass of the former innkeeper, Serenity.
• The "Black Winter" War is full of these:
  • Caitiff repeats the process that was used to make itself on all of your fallen allies, having the Doom Weapons stab their corpses so that they become just like Caitiff.
  • Caitiff creates Mirage enemies to face the Hero, one of them being a shadowy Serenity Mirage. As she fights Serenity will weep, while uttering sad phrases like "I trusted you...", "Why didn't you save me?", "Please! Stop hurting me!", "Stop it!!!"
  • Using Serenity's own image against the Hero seems to be its favorite thing to do. Before the final battle, Caitiff speaks in Serenity's voice by speaking from her corpse's mouth rather than its own, the skull on the ShadowReaper to ask the Hero "You wouldn't hurt me, would you?". Notable for being one of the only three instances in DragonFable that a text box has sound effects.
