[[The Dev Team Thinks of Everything|The Dev Team At Rare Thought Of Everything]] when they made the ''[[Banjo-Kazooie]]'' games, and that includes [[Nightmare Fuel|this trope.]]
 
Well, these ''are'' the guys [[Donkey Kong Country (video game)/Nightmare Fuel|behind]] ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'' after all, not to mention the [[Banjo-Kazooie/Radar|copious amounts of subtle adult humor.]]
 
'''<big>In order for [[Nightmare Fuel]] tabs to survive, a new writing style is going to be used, nicknamed ''Example Lobotomy''. Basic rules: just list facts as they are, don't just say "character X" or "the X scene" (such [[Zero Context Example|zero context examples]] will be [[Zapped]]), spoiler policy to be determined on a case-by-case basis, italics to be applied to works' names only and not to give emphasis on what tropers say. "X scared me" is already implied by the mere addition of that example by the troper.</big>'''

* All in all, there's actually a surprising amount of disturbing content in both games. And as the characters themselves acknowledge, "this is a family game" - which might well be a [[Refuge in Audacity|shameless]] acknowledgement of what they managed to [[Banjo-Kazooie/Radar|sneak past the censors.]]
* The [[Game Over]] screen, [[Donkey Kong Country (video game)/Nightmare Fuel|true to Rare tradition]], where Gruntilda [[The Bad Guy Wins|succeeds at stealing Tooty's beauty]]: the former becomes [[Evil Is Sexy|a shapely]], [[Ms. Fanservice|sexy villainess]], while Tooty turns into a green monster and starts lashing at the camera repeatedly: [[You Bastard|"Banjo, your sister wants a word with you...now!"]]. What makes it worse that, as it happened in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]'', the sequence [[Guilt Based Gaming|is also triggered when quitting the game]]. All of this is backed up by the BGM, a [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wg0-J55EsUU brief rearrangement of Grunty's theme] [[Stealth Pun|played by]] [[Irony|a Banjo.]]
** Made worst in the Xbox 360 demo of the game, where upon completing it, you see the Game Over cutscene, meaning in that demo, this is [[Downer Ending|the canon ending]].
* Clanker's Cavern, Glitter Gulch Mine and Jolly Roger's Lagoon all share [[Psycho Strings]] as part of their BGM.
* Some of the monsters in the games include worms that pop out of broken grates, life-vests with teeth, pipes with teeth and killer venus-fly-traps.
