What are the most successful animated shows that featured horror?

Inhumanoids: The Evil That Lies Within.

Or as I like to call it, "Cthulhu for kids" ;) Great, short-lived show (13 episodes, 1986-87). I was quite surprised at the time at the level of violence, especially given that it was a Sunbow cartoon. And it still baffles me how some of it managed to sneak past the censors... By far the most horrific U.S. animated series I've seen from the 80's, especially given that it was billed as a "Kid's" show. Needless to say, I loved it. :D

While it wasn't really a success, per se, I thought it worthy of mention for the sheer horrorousity of it.
