== General ==

* Patrick going crazy in the episode "Nature Pants" when he started to miss SpongeBob, who had decided to give up his old life and live among the jellyfish. Especially the scene where he takes a swing at SpongeBob with a jellyfish net, and as an [[Ominous Music Box Tune]] [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-DQasmrNP4s is heard in the background], Patrick tearfully but angrily says "If I can't have you as a friend, I'm gonna make you a ''trophy''!" He then shows SpongeBob a jar with SpongeBob's name on it and tells him "I even picked out this nice jar for you!" Oh my god.

** ''' "FRIENDS FOREVER, SPONGEBOB!!!!" '''

* When SpongeBob wanted to dress as the Flying Dutchman for Halloween, but his square body didn't allow this. Patrick decided to give him a "haircut" for it to fit. It's not until after a botched attempt at a prank that the real Flying Dutchman tells him to take off the sheet, and flies off screaming. The camera then cut to SpongeBob, where it turns out Patrick didn't just cut off his edges, he ''cut him down to his brain''! Everyone else then ran away from them. Patrick doesn't realize why they all ran off at first, but shortly after SpongeBob explains about his brain, Patrick suddenly runs away too. Despite all this, as was pointed out, ''[[Good Thing You Can Heal|"Don't worry-- it grows back"]]''.

** ...and the music that plays shortly afterward is absolutely [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PbURXySdK3U& horrifying]

** There's a deleted scene on the DVD with this episode on it with Squidward transforming into a snail as well.

* In "SB-129", Squidward travels through time and ends up in a blank white void. He remarks to himself that he can finally be alone... which is when the word manifests itself as a colorful caption. Then a series of disembodied voices start saying the word "alone", accompanied by more colorful representations of the word, until Squidward finally snaps and tries to get out.

*** There's also a major [[Fridge Horror]] factor to that. ''Were those voices coming from other people who had been trapped in the same void?''

** "SB-129" also has a mega case of [[Fridge Horror]]. Squidward is in the freezer for 2000 years, and then he gets sent back to the past, and eventually to his own time. Fair enough, right? But then you realise that there are now two Squidwards: the one that returned to the present, and the other which is still STUCK INSIDE THE KRUSTY KRAB'S FREEZER. Presumably it never gets discovered, hence why Squidward isn't freed for 2000 years, which essentially means that after that episode, there's a frozen replica of Squidward inside the freezer. Just as well none of the customers know that... Talk about your [[Timey-Wimey Ball]].

*** It kind of gets worse when you realize that in another episode SpongeBob says he checked every freezer in the Krusty Krab. Considering how stupid SpongeBob has been lately, it wouldn't be a shock if he saw the frozen Squidward and did nothing about it.

*** There is at least one other episode, "Nasty Patty," where the Krusty Krab freezer is seen again, completely empty. But it's funny, in that episode, they were trying to hide a body in there from the police [[It Makes Sense in Context|(yeah...)]]; but supposedly at least one body was already inside...

** The [[Body Horror|things]] that come out of the bathroom. What makes it scarier is that all of those beings are based on real animals.

* In "Hooky", while Patrick and SpongeBob walk towards the hook infested area, Patrick mentions there was a kid who came by earlier, and then cue the [[Fridge Horror|scene of a pair of children's shoes lying beside a rock.]]

* The scene in one episode where SpongeBob once KILLED the Dirty Bubble (by popping him trying to get an autograph, no less). Thank you [[Negative Continuity]].

** Look closely at some of the things in the tunnel as Squidward falls. Some of the things ( including a skull-snake with wings) are downright horrifying and can only be described as " what is ''that thing?''"

** It actually does have an end, actually. Marked by spaghetti and meatballs within the rift.

** In that same episode SpongeBob was trying to cook in the Chum Bucket kitchen and opened the oven (or whatever it was) to reveal a mutated burger. The meat part of it actually formed into a hand which it used to pull itself forward in an attempt to get at SpongeBob all the while muttering something incoherently (and creepily).

* ''Frankendoodle''. For some, it's not scary at all, but for others, that babbling, raving voice, its violent intentions, and the way it's drawn are deeply disturbing.

* The episode ''Graveyard Shift'' ended with all the scary things being explained rationally. It turns out the lights had been going on and off because ''the vampire from Nosferatu had been flipping the light-switch.'' [[Roger Rabbit Effect|He's not even animated!]]

** The way Squidward and SpongeBob's eyebrows reacted to the visitor in that episode was creepy.

** The moment that got some was when the power goes out in SpongeBob's house. He lights a candle and hears someone cooing out his name. He turns around and sees his ''chair has gained a horrific-looking mouth and eyes and is coaxing him to "put his feet up" in a obscenely creepy voice.''

* The episode "Jellyfish Hunter", in addition to siccing the nightmarish "Moar Krabs" upon us, contains a genuinely disturbing scene in which SpongeBob is being stalked by a jellyfish, including an infamous "heavy breathing" phone call.

* From the episode "Just One Bite": "Does '''this''' look unsure to you?!" (see the above image).

** And this:

(Squidward's eyes widen, music stops short and he walks away) }}

** The creepily insane look on Squidward's face after he eats the patty he buried underground and runs back to the Krusty Krab.

** The deleted scene is also frankly disturbing. See, Squidward first checks if the Krusty Krab has security measures for the Patty Vault. He realizes that it's just a bucket of water placed on top of the door. He laughs about it, opens the door, and the bucket spills over the floor. He steps on the puddle and comments that it's too easy. He then sniffs the liquid and realizes that the 'water' is really ''gas''. A robotic arm then appears and drops a lit match into the gas, resulting in a huge explosion. Squidward then opens the kitchen door, setting off another burglar alarm. The kitchen bursts into flames for a few seconds.

* The health inspector episode. SpongeBob and Mr. Krabs believe the health inspector at the Krusty Krab to be a phony who's faking it for free food, so they serve him the a disgusting, moldy Krabby Patty which apparently kills him. The rest of the episode is creepily monochromatic, and about them hiding the battered body from the police.

* The episode in which Ms. Puff is blamed for =[[SpongeBob]]=]'s inept driving and winds up in jail, which to her is a respite from the hell of her normal life. SpongeBob and Patrick, failing to understand, repeatedly try to rescue her, but instead make the guards think she's insane and throw her in an isolation cell. In the cell, she goes insane for real and starts hallucinating that the padded walls are made of sponge, and that each has SpongeBob's laughing face on it. Then she starts hallucinating the beginning of the episode over and over, each time a little different and a little weirder. The episode ends with her giving up on deciding what's real and what's not and resigning herself to insanity. Good thing for [[Negative Continuity]].

** It is actually implied that the entire jail episode was just a hallucination Mrs. Puff had ''while still falling off the cliff,'' which makes it all the more disturbing. After the solitary confinement scene and Mrs. Puff is shown falling off the cliff again, she has two more hallucinations, and the episode ends with her still falling off the cliff, her fate left ambiguous. Ten times more disturbing in that context. Good thing for [[Negative Continuity]] indeed.

** Oh God. You can see the clip [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UlAW58yURDc here].

* The episode with the Salty Spittoon. A tough-looking fish describes how tough you have to be to get in;

* The "appetizer" Mr. Krabs serves as food in "Squilliam Returns". Squidward, and later everyone else, was freaked out by it.

* There was a scene in the episode "Wet Painters" where SpongeBob sees a microscopic drop of paint on Mr. Krabs' first dollar and his ''[[Eye Scream|eyes crack open, causing his irises to ooze out]]''.

** Gary's stomach ''[[Body Horror|growing a face and moaning!]]''

* Carl from "Selling Out" is rather creepy, especially considering how happy he is during his every line.

* When SpongeBob was shooting a movie. After a scene (specifically, Pearl falling off the cliff) destroys the whole set, SpongeBob is disappointed but still relieved that they got the footage. Patrick agrees, but then SpongeBob notices something blocking the lens. Patrick [[Too Dumb to Live|then reveals that it's a lens cap, and he put it on right before they started filming]], [[Shaggy Dog Story|rendering the whole movie meaningless]]. SpongeBob then goes insane by ''breaking off a big chunk of the pavement '''and slurping the worms under it!!''''' Even the characters were shocked. Granted, [[Unexplained Recovery|he gets better]], but still...

** People in Bikini Bottom keep worms as pets, and the worms even act like dogs. Think about it...

* The entirety of the episode where SpongeBob and Patrick [[Fantastic Voyage|go inside Squidward to get his clarinet reed out of his throat]]. During which they are ''screwing around with his bodily functions'' and at the end they end up GROWING inside of him...submarine and all.

* In one episode, Patrick has given SpongeBob his prized possession: A House sized collection of gum that he's had for years, which apparently has all sorts of stuff like pizza, clothing and OTHER PEOPLE (they were living in it though). A good moment is when a pair of underpants comes out of the wad and it ''crawls'' to SpongeBob until it reaches his face. Then it ''F@#$ING TALKS TO HIM''.

** Gummy is an [[Eldritch Abomination]] made out of gum and junk.

 

== Season 5 ==

* In one episode, SpongeBob and Patrick unearth a submarine apparently buried in SpongeBob's yard. Upon entering, SpongeBob shoves aside a ''human skeleton'' to flip the engine switch.

* [http://www.youtube.com/watch v=M1geOa269q8&feature=related This] from WhoBobWhatPants.

* In the Two Faces of Squidward, an incident causes Squidward to become handsome, however, when Spongebob tries making him look back to normal in the end, but it makes him more handsome, [[Uncanny Valley|OH MY GOD, WHAT IS THAT THING!?]]
