* Stitches <The Gift From the Embalmer> in Duskwood. A level 35 Elite Boss Abomination that walks the road in Duskwood, and if left alone will eventually assault the town of Darkshire. And there's no real warning that he's coming (unless you're the one who just reached the last step of the quest chain that summons him, or were lucky enough to not be questing (and in Darkshire) when his appearance begins). So you could be coming down the road from completing a quest in the Graveyard, pause for a brief moment because you wanted to look at your map, and then... wham, he's right behind you. |

* The Scholomance. More precisely, the history of the Scholomance as told by the ghost of Eva Sarkhoff at Caer Darrow. Even more precisely, how she tried to hide from the horrors that slowly creeped into the estate, failed, and was experimented on and tortured while magic kept her conscious and alive. ''Including in the end when ghouls feasted on her body.'' Finding the chamber of Doctor Theolen "The Butcher" Krastinov only added to this. At least you can kill him, even if he was a pretty difficult boss back in the day. |

* The Prophet Tharon'ja. The skeleton of a wind serpent (Quetzalcoatlesque winged snake). During the fight ''she steals'' your flesh to regrow hers and turns ''you'' into skeletons! |

** That, however, is a perfect example of [[Cursed with Awesome]], because you're given VERY strong abilities when you're in skeletal form. |

* The Razorfen Downs in the Barrens. Imagine, a mostly dark labyrinth with massive thorn vines hanging overhead. This, in its own right, isn't that creepy, but when you throw in a rather large army of zombies, including undead anthropomorphic pigs and zombified regular pigs (which is quite disgusting if you happen to be eating pork at the time), it gets a little hair-raising. The undead pig-men aren't too creepy in their own right, just how mutilated they actually look, much worse than most other zombies. They pretty much look more like normal pig-men wearing armor [http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20090724183330/wowwiki/images/b/b9/Withered_Spearhide.jpg made of bacon]. Then we get to the issue of how this happened. It's sort of implied that the leader of the quilboar people actually ''sold out her own people to the Scourge,'' and the majority of the race ''has no idea it's going on basically across the street.'' |

** Oh, it gets worse. Play the ''Starcraft II'' mission on Aiur and tell me that... ''thing'' in the screenshot doesn't look like the Overmind. |
