* ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3224332/1/Counts_of_Blood Counts of Blood]'' is a good ''[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer]]'' that crosses over with the ''[[Muppets]]'', of all things, but its portrayal of Count von Count is ''terrifying''. For starters, {{spoiler|he apparently cut up a mathemetician into over a hundred pieces and put them in small boxes,}} and early on in the story, ''{{spoiler|removes the feet of the poor sap who took the pills he needs to curb his violent tendencies!}}''

* ''[http://www.rovl.org/vi/?p=display&e=8482 It Makes Me Happy That I'm Not Them]'', set in an [[Ironic Hell]], veers between the merely eerie and extreme [[Gorn]]. It works surprisingly well for a horror fic based on [[Redwall|books aimed at ten-year-olds]], but it's still terrifying.

* Just about anything Ann-Kathrin Kniggendorf (otherwise known as AKK) wrote for ''[[Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers]]''. ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20120502171245/http://www.annkniggendorf.de/gr/fanfic/thelie.html "The Lie"]'' has a brutal rape depiction that can shock even the most veteran reader, and acts as a crushing inversion of [[Double Standard Rape (Female on Male)]]. It says something when the poor hero views having his soul ripped out afterwards as a relief! Her pre-series Supertrooper works are all the more chilling when you hear the violence and death described with clinical precision. ''[http://www.annkniggendorf.de/gr/fanfic/walkingthroughnightmares.html Walking Through Nightmares]'' depicts severe asthma, lung damage, and the inability to breathe in graphic detail. And then there's ''[http://www.annkniggendorf.de/gr/fanfic/raumjaeger.html Raumjaeger]''. Oh, shit. The classic idea of "what if Nazi Germany won" played for all the horror you can imagine and then some. You will ''not'' be sleeping well after it, especially after little details like the human-skin lampshade. Worse is that Ann-Kathrin, like half of the fandom's writers, is German and English isn't her first language. The show itself? A ''kids cartoon'' from [[The Eighties]].

* ''[http://thepaperpusher.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=32847 Parts Of A (Bung)Hole]''. It starts off as a bit weird and angsty, with one hell of a [[Crack Pairing]], though the author does his best to make it believable. The ending, however, is positively hellish. {{spoiler|After learning that [[Beavis and Butthead]] (mostly Butthead) raped [[Daria]] & drove her to alcoholism & death in a drunk driving accident, Jane tears open Beavis' throat with her teeth while they're having rough sex & then uses his insides to paint a portrait of Daria on his bedroom wall.}} Daria fans do love them some [[Dark Fic]], but ye gods...

* The epic ''[[Kirby]]'' fanfic ''[[The Dream Land Story]]'' has the entire sequence in {{spoiler|Marx's mind}}, which was probably intended to be creepy. There's also {{spoiler|Kirby's Dark-Matter-induced night terrors}} which [[Nothing Is Scarier|are never described to the reader]]. And to top it all off, {{spoiler|Meta Knight's graphic suicide}}.
