What are some scary/weird dream sequences in animation that scare you/creep you out and why? I have 3 in paticular.

1. All Dogs go to heaven-Charlie has a haunting nightmare where he takes a trip hell!! I'm still scared of that dream till this day! There was a demonic statue, weird bubbly lava, a fat and hideous dragon, and little demon dogs! And before Charlie wakes up, the boat that he's on starts to sink into the lava while the little demon dogs are biting on him! And while this is happening you can hear a weird voice say: "You can never go back!!" I'm suprised this is a kid's movie.

2. Hey Arnold- Sid and Germs: Sid has a dream about tons and TONS of bugs. I guess it wasn't that creepy but still....

3.Courage the Cowardly Dog-Perfect: Courage is trying to get some sleep. He has one dream in paticular. There is a weird, blue, deformed, 3-D octopus thing with big yellow eyes that says: "You're not perfect". Even though that dream lasted only for 10 seconds, It was very disturbing. If you saw it, you'd know what I'm talking about.

Share some dreams sequences in animation that creep you out.
 
The New Batman/Superman Adventures "Over The Edge," Where Barbra/Batgirl is gassed by Scarecrow and dreams her worst fears.

The first time watching that (back in 1998), I was all like "OMG" with my jaw hanging loose.
 
"Run." Oh, yeah.
I thought it was just a little disturbing. His response to it was funny, though.

I remember one seriously messed-up dream in that paintball episode of King of the Hill...
 
-Not sure this counts as a dream sequence but in Samurai Jack goes into the haunted house and is sent into that weird black and white firey dream dimension where he fought the weird dragon demon. I thought that was messed up.

-Peggy Hill's dream about sending the church kids to hell as she was not a real nun was pretty damn funny( "Thats what I call a clean burning fires of Hell, I tell you what. HAHAHAHA!")
 
I forgot to mention one more dream. In Spiderman the animated series, There is an episode called Return of green goblin. At the very beginning of the episode. Harry Osbourn has a bizzare nightmare about the green goblin. That dream was messed up!
 
The dream sequence from Batman TAS episode Dreams in Darkness.

Bruce Wayne dreams of his parents walking into a tunnel. Before he can catch up with them, the tunnel rises from the ground to reveal itself as the barrel of a gigantic gun with blood pouring out of it. The gun *****, fires, and he wakes up.

This was pretty intense for afternoon cartoon in the early 90's and I remember this was the first episode my 5th grade teacher saw of the series in class. He's been hooked on the show ever since.
 
....that was actually one of my favorite scenes in the film :sweat: .....and I was about 9 years old when I first saw it....though I can see how it could be disturbing to some people...

I've never been too bothered by anything in an animated film,though I do find the "Pink Elephants on Parade" scene from Dumbo majorly bizzare.....
 
In the South Park episode "The Jeffersons"...The dream that kyle had where Cartman and Michael Jackson almost kissed!!!!! That was scary and very disturbing! Its even alot scarier than TNBAs "Over the Edge".
 
The Simpsons episode El Viaje Misterioso De Nuestro Jomer (The mysterious voyage of Homer) Had a crazy dream sequence in there, the animation was awesome too.
