Pokemon. It's scary how bad it has gotten.
Correction, this steaming pile was nightmarishly horrible even by americanized animation's standards from its conception.

Full Metal Alchemist is pretty dark, going from playfully silly to 'Holy crap the killed the cute kid by exploding its innards all over a wall'
Compared to the others in this thread, FMA = Naruto.

the second series is a little less scary, probably because it explains more stuff
Season 2 is just... I didn't finish season 2. It seemed to lack that special feeling season 1 had, where it felt like death was lurking around every corner and an invisible knife was at your throat.
it pretty much wraps all of it up :p and yeah there was less violence, but the last episode is really good, you should try and finish it XD

Erm... Death Note can get pretty damn creepy. I wouldn't call it scary but Light's mindset is fairly... Well, yeah.
This is how I know I'm a complete psychopath. I agree with most of what Light does, and I would have gotten away with it.

Well, I don't think most animes and shows are scary so much as gory... If you want some mindfuck, Lain experimental series is a pretty good one...

I was also a fan of Light. If I were in his shoes I would have stayed anonymous and just let the police run around in circles rather than try and fight them. That doesn't make for a very interesting series though, I'm afraid.

There was this one called Elfen Lied or something like that. It was pretty freaky, but I mean it's still a cartoon so it's not gonna be the exorcist or anything...
Elfen Lied is not scary in any way. It's just gorn. And bad gorn at that, though it's hard for gorn to be anything except bad...
K, sorry hero, you are a rock.

There was a CGI flick that I saw in pieces on Youtube that was akin to The Grudge (a movie that scared the crap out of me, shut up), and I haven't been able to find it again. School kid walks home finds creepy grudge chick dragging corpse, it gives chase, he gets home, creepy elevator scene, me pissing myself.

Anyone have a clue as to what this might be despite the vague description?

EDIT: I FOUND IT!!! Urban Legend Story Hikiko

Serial Experiments Lain is the light and the truth. I agree with everyone in this thread that's endorsed it so far.


It's like waking up one day and wondering if not only reality is real, but *everything* is real, and then you start thinking about things even more complex than that....it's just....very thought-provoking. And also creepy.

Well, nostalgia glasses make the original season seem good. Looking back, it sucked too.

It's all so bad that it's scary.

Indeed. His biggest mistake was getting cocky and tackling L head on. Had he staid put, they had nothing to go on, they couldn't even establish they were murders.

But alas, that would make an extremely short and boring series I'm afraid.

paranoia agent is kind of freaking but hard to follow and in my opinion is missing a point kind of.

There was a movie that came on adult swim one time i was asleep on the couch when i was woken up by the end of it and it was like the end of a hide and seak game and all these kids were locked up and it had a creepy ending. I have no idea what it was called but i want ot see the whole story. Yes vague i know.

They have several demonic animes that have tits and blood that make you go wtf. Incest with dead mother who is reborn in a younger body WTF. girl gets choped into a million pieces using wires WTF!!!!! And it seems like all of the "scary" animes have these features or something a little more vague.

How the hell is a cartoon going to be any scarier if you don't find live action movies creepy? You obviously haven't seen very much if that's the case.
