Line 10:
Compare [[Uncanny Valley]]. Related to [[Demonic Dummy]], [[Perverse Puppet]], [[Portrait Painting Peephole]] and [[Living Toys]]. Sometimes overlaps with [[Eye Awaken]], though that trope usually only applies to living (or at least sentient) creatures.
 
Not to be confused with the ''[[Charmed (TV)|Charmed]]'' episode of the same name, which made use of [[Eye Scream]] rather than this trope. Or the ''[[Criminal Minds]]'' episode, also with the same name, which ''also'' makes use of [[Eye Scream]].

* Non-horror example ([[Subjective Trope|at least to some viewers]]): in the [[Disney Animated Canon|Disney adaptation]] of ''[[The Hunchback of Notre Dame (Disney film)|The Hunchback of Notre Dame]]'', after taking the life of Quasimodo's mother and [[Incredibly Lame Pun|taken on the mother of all guilt trips]] by the Archdeacon, Judge Claude Frollo sees the eyes of every statue on the cathedral facade, most especially those of the Virgin Mary, glaring at him in righteous condemnation. Amazingly, however, he's able to shrug this off and dump the foundling on the churchman instead. At the end of the film, one of the gargoyles comes alive to roar a fiery wrath right in his face. [[Karmic Death|This time he's not so lucky]].
