Leave it to [adult swim] to make American Horror Story look like a kids show...
- Around 2013 they did teasers for The Heart, She Holler and the way they chose to do it was a series of jump scares that got louder as the month of August went on ending with this. They even put screamers in Cleveland Show and Family Guy commercials to promote the show. A lot of people were, needless to say, not pleased.
- Everything about Meemaw, or as all you [adult swim]-watching history buffs know her as, Virginia Dare. An impossibly old Evil Cripple with a Death Wish due to having Age Without Youth, but unable to die. She is the driving force behind the Holler being a weird Crapsack World, and it has been revealed that she controls the residents like puppets when she gets bored.
- In her first appearance, she asks Hurlan to give her a Mercy Kill, even though Season 3 reveals that he is so dumb he doesn't fully understand the concept of death. He tries to unplug her, but the plug turns into an impossibly long, bloody intestinal tract.
- Hambrosia can be pretty intense as well. The examples are numerous, but perhaps one of the strongest is during "Begin the Endginning" when she, for whatever reason, starts committing slow suicide by literally putting her whole life into her pies. Each pie causes her to die a little more until she's literally a ghost. Later, she rises from the blood-red filling of one of her pies, covered in red goop, while the other pies around her begin to spew blood and guts. It's played for laughs.
