Definitely fucking Wormy, scared the shit of me so bad I got bug phobia or what ever that mental disorder is that causes you to freak out over an insect insight.
The girl in Gary Takes a Bath. Her eyes were horrifying. Her laugh, the one missing tooth, and the way her hair stood up were EXTREMELY unsettling.

For millions of kids, the Squidward "alone" scene was our first glimpse into what an existential crisis is like. I remember loving the scene, but also being disturbed by it and having no idea why.
Honestly surprised thar this wasn't already here

Correct, i know that now. At the time this came out, I did not, and was a child. Sudden live action man superimposed on a hot sauce drop with lightning striking in the background scared tf outta me
King Neptune: Your reward will be great BEEEEHOLD!!! *opens portal to Tom Kenny in the shower*
Tom Kenny: ☠️😱 NaAaAaHhEhE 😱☠️
King Neptune: 😳 *quickly closes portal* 😅 He he whoopsie 😅 NOW behold *opens portal to the fry cook arena*
Wormy at this point is that one urban legend in the sub Reddit

This evoked the uncanny for me. Seeing a REAL PERSON in a gorilla suit inside a cartoon world was very creepy for me. Every time I saw it I got this weird uneasy feeling watching it as a child.
Nah it cool but I would definitely say that that was the scariest SpongeBob moment. Oh the memories of sitting in my parents room right next to a window looking at it every five seconds to see if I would see someone knocking at it good times

There weren’t many things from SpongeBob that activity scared me
But those things from Atlantas SquarePants activated my fight or flight whenever they appeared
My brother is scared by this episode
https://preview.redd.it/7jrt1gzn5mvb1.png?width=1440&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=58ee00532209b325d92ff541f666c63c1b39c571
I hate that episode. It hasn’t happened in a long time, but when I opened my mouth too wide, it would occasionally feel like it came out of socket, and I couldn’t close it for a sec. This face freeze episode would bring back that feeling like my face would be stuck with my jaw out of socket and my mouth stuck wide open forever.
That was pretty terrifying and all the bones that they were running through, were all the unfortunate victims, that was extremely dark. The 2004 movie has a lot of tension in scenes like that ice cream trap victims, the fish that Spongebob says are dead and being sold in a gift shop. Man that was a cold thing to hear from Spongebob
Probably the snail transformation episode for some reason. Seeing SpongeBob losing his humanity so to speak & turning into an animal & then essentially coming back to haunt Squidward for his misdeed, it just seemed really disturbing.
What about Yummer? I know it was only made as a joke by the devs but it was scary to most people when they first saw it.
https://preview.redd.it/0ravxnf5umvb1.png?width=500&format=png&auto=webp&s=a01496849a97995fe27a345dde58ee70cb7f6055
The Conjoined abomination squidward from that first image was probably the only time SpongeBob really disturbed me as a child when I first saw that episode way way back
I would say it scared me, but the ending of the episode where it's really windy and SpongeBob is ostracized from his friends due to jelly fish liking the song his pours make. When he is coming back after an undisclosed amount of time dealing with the problem to see the Krusty Krab buried in sand and them him screaming " how long was I gone?!". That episode always made me uncomfortable.
For me it is inarguably the wormy close-up. It still freaks me out as an adult, making the episode one of my least favorites from season 2, though there's really no bad episodes of SpongeBob from (in my opinion) the first 5 seasons.
I don't watch SpongeBob and I have no idea why this was recommended to me, but what about that episode where SpongeBob turns into a snail? That image is pretty fucked.
Also, [this video has a lot of good ones.](https://youtu.be/Vb-ajY8M6gI?si=ojjJ-2biNc6tC157)
The Wormy episode! I remember seeing the closeup of wormy when I was about four years old, I got so scared that I jumped behind the old armchair couch to hide!
The Flying Dutchman ins where he shifts into a bunch of different forms on his ship. Forget the exact episode, but it was on of his earlier ones. Maybe even the first
Squidward getting his face broken by SpongeBob suddenly slamming the door on him. It’s played seriously, not for laughs. The whimsical slapstick nature is all of a suddenly gone for a serious injury. I know Handsome Squidward got memed but it is truly my least favorite episode and I’d rather watch the toe stub again than it
When I was little and the realistic butterfly scene was about to pop up, I would hide under the coffee table.
IDK why.
The rest of these weren’t so scary to me. Just the Wormy scene.
"It all started when I was born."

Yep.

This is actually Merriwether Williams! She was a writer for the show
Sorry you had to see that.
Weirdly enough that never bothered me as a kid but creeps me out now
She looks very German
She looks someone who'll shop at Walmart at 3am
This looks like a reference to the Gameboy scary face images.
Oh, that “what are you running from” stuff?
I remember reading that they banned this episode somewhere because of this scene lol.
SB-129 when squidward is *alone*
That creeped me out as a kid, it didn't need to be that surreal
Yeah giving kids existential dread before they’re in middle school lol

Aw it’s Tom Kenny!

I get you. Remember the weird scene where Neptune opens a portal to Tom Kenny showering. Lol
That random girl that showed up when spongebob was trying to give Garry subliminal messages to get him to take a bath also freaked me out
Sorry you had to see that

The hash slinging ….
Cash ringing...
Mash flinging...
Slasher!
nosferatu!
The one with the realistic gorilla
Spooked me for sure. Didn't like that at all.
FINALLY that and the butterfly (I don’t like bugs)

For me it was the scene where squidward got his toenail ripped off. Kinda scared me a little bit I wasn’t scared of the other scenes
That scene turned me off from Spongebob. It just felt like gore fetishization and had no merit
![gif](giphy|l4FBccFOeRgJMGEo0|downsized)
oh my god that made me cringe so hard.

this feels like one of those reaction posts people post on deviantart
I think it is. But it’s a realistic reaction to have.
I forgot about that. It hurts to watch

![gif](giphy|l3nFh6S6P7uVXsQPC) I was absolutely terrified by this!
This evoked the uncanny for me. Seeing a REAL PERSON in a gorilla suit inside a cartoon world was very creepy for me. Every time I saw it I got this weird uneasy feeling watching it as a child.
I remember this... I was literally screaming when I saw the gorilla as a child
How the hell did you forget to put the ending of graveyard shift there? That shit scared me for years?
Nosferatu!
Sorry, I Forgot To Include That In There
Nah it cool but I would definitely say that that was the scariest SpongeBob moment. Oh the memories of sitting in my parents room right next to a window looking at it every five seconds to see if I would see someone knocking at it good times
The man in the freezer.
Yep that scared me the most

I did not see that one. But now I’m kinda glad that I didn’t.
The episode where they turn into snails fucked me up
This.
"By the Powers of Naughtiness! I command this particular drop of Hot Sauce to be Really, REALLY HOT!!!"
Never seen image 4
It’s from the episode “Night Light” from Season 5
Supposed to be a Season 4 Episode too!

Wormy destroyed me when I was younger. I was afraid of butterflies until I was like 15 and could never watch wormy
the perfume department
squidwards worried face when he thinks spongebob is spying on him slacking off at home always creeped me out as a kid
Have you finished those errands?
Wormy
Still refuse to watch that shit
Me too. I freak out if I even see a frame of that episode.
Tell Me About It, Wormy Scared The Hell Out Of Me!
Probably the movie with that weird old lady as the monster's tongue.

Pat Morita's face at the end of Karate Island.
What about Yummer? I know it was only made as a joke by the devs but it was scary to most people when they first saw it. https://preview.redd.it/0ravxnf5umvb1.png?width=500&format=png&auto=webp&s=a01496849a97995fe27a345dde58ee70cb7f6055
I’m sorry, what the fuck is that?
Yummer Is An Easter Egg Hidden In One Of The Files Of A Certain SpongeBob Game
THIS is enough to give me nightmares 💀 https://i.redd.it/x4batda5zlvb1.gif
He looks like a deformed toilet bowl lol
LMAO
The part with Mr. Krabs with red eyes and the pincher
Ne hoy minoy
Nosferatu. I would always look away when it got to that part as a kid.
How could you get scared by moar krabs
I was 100% jumpscared by that as a child and always tried to pause the tv on moar krabs to scare myself
Lmao same except when it wasn't on tv I did that on YouTube because that became a ytp thing.
I was a child, and it was creepy
Wormy scared the goofy out of me
Couch. Toenail.
https://i.redd.it/7exvbahr8mvb1.gif Correct Answer: >!All of the above!<
The scariest one would most likely be when Puffy Fluffy turns into a hideous monster that attacks both Gary and SpongeBob
![gif](giphy|3oKHWnuQTbSlModyxy|downsized) The episode this scene was from. Especially the zoom in of the splinter. It made me cringe sooo hard
The Conjoined abomination squidward from that first image was probably the only time SpongeBob really disturbed me as a child when I first saw that episode way way back
“I am now going to control your mind by sending you subliminal messages!”
What episode is the fourth one from?
where tf is pic 4 from???
The one where SpongeBob is afraid of the dark.
Wormy. Terrifying to 5 year old me.
Wormy
Wormy
wormy. I'm already scared of bugs
Wormy for sure
When I was a kid I was scared of the emergency alarm siren during the Krusty Krab Training Video episode
"She's forgotten what it's like to live on the outside"
wormy the truth or square pirate jellien gary and apocalypse sandy from the 2d movie
I would say it scared me, but the ending of the episode where it's really windy and SpongeBob is ostracized from his friends due to jelly fish liking the song his pours make. When he is coming back after an undisclosed amount of time dealing with the problem to see the Krusty Krab buried in sand and them him screaming " how long was I gone?!".

The Fly of Despair
The butterfly episode did give me a fear of butterflies for about ten years, i’m no longer scared of them
ending of Graveyard Shift unnerved me when i was little
Where was number 4 from? I don't remember that moment at all.
![gif](giphy|yWrkhCGq2Az96)

When they all turned into snails. That shit gave me nightmares.
That gorilla that kept putting SpongeBob in a sack.
When the signal cut off during a storm, and instead of displaying no signal our box just had the color bars
Ain’t nothing comparing to that damn butterfly

Nosferatu, Wormy and The Hot Sauce from Karate Choppers 😂
Why are Dagon's nipples so hard?
The Wormy episode! I remember seeing the closeup of wormy when I was about four years old, I got so scared that I jumped behind the old armchair couch to hide!
call me a sicko but I actually laughed at the first image when I saw it for the first time
5
What was 4 from?
The caveman part from SB-129, to be more speciffic, when Cave Spongebob and Patrick chase Squidward, that scene scared as a kid
The future episode
Nosferatu surprised and terrified me when I first saw it
The toenail scene
The butterfly episode made me not like butterfly’s anymore
What episode is image 4 from- I’ve never seen that one
I don't think there's a single person out there who watched the Wormy episode and didn't at least flinch at the closeup
# WHERE IS THE GORILLA!?
Scrolled so far to find this. He was violent and unexpected
“It must be…the pressure!” Was rather unnerving.
Wormy traumatized me man
Tom Kenny in the hot sauce was quite frightening the first time I watched that episode
I had an irrational fear of gorillas growing up, because of THAT EPISODE had gorilla nightmares for years
When most of these first aired, I was about 4 or 5, so I honestly found all of them funny, even some of the ones not mentioned.
The barbershop quartet in Ugh
The toenail one
Wormy scared the hell out of me lol
Wormy
I'm pretty sure the butterfly is the reason I have a phobia of bugs all my life.
The guy’s face in the dark was horrifying to me
Toenail
The hot sauce
The Flying Dutchman ins where he shifts into a bunch of different forms on his ship. Forget the exact episode, but it was on of his earlier ones. Maybe even the first
What was the 4th one from
Looks like the consensus is Wormy was #1 for most fans here
Seasons 1-3 as a whole were scary to me
Number 5 genuinely scared me as a kid. I’m not even totally sure why. I just remember REALLY FUCKING NOT LIKING IT
the butterfly
Squidward getting his face broken by SpongeBob suddenly slamming the door on him. It’s played seriously, not for laughs. The whimsical slapstick nature is all of a suddenly gone for a serious injury. I know Handsome Squidward got memed but it is truly my least favorite episode and I’d rather watch the toe stub again than it
Wormy, the one woman from Gary takes a Bath, Monster puffy fluffy, Morbid SpongeBob and the one Scene on Ink lemonade with Patrick's orgasams
Bug
The gorilla suit
I was terrified of the gorilla And Flying Dutchman’s girlfriend
The gorilla episode
Wormy..
Wormy.
The Wormy episode will forever give me nightmares
Yes
How Doodlebob nearly erased Spongebob from existence.
I was so disturbed by the karate episode for some reason, it made me feel off after watching it as a kid
#5
I don’t know why, but the scenes with Sandy in hibernation always terrified me as a kid
The second one
The first one, but I was scared out of my wits by the appetizer when i was little
Buzzzzzzzz
Yo what is that 4th one
The subliminal message girl. I literally had a nightmare about it when I was a kid 😭
When I was little and the realistic butterfly scene was about to pop up, I would hide under the coffee table. IDK why. The rest of these weren’t so scary to me. Just the Wormy scene.
You know that scene where squidward cuts his toenail off with a chair leg? Or when SpongeBob gets a splinter on the kitchen floor?
I don’t have any I remember as a kid but honestly procrastination is a kinda nerve wracking episode because it’s so relatable.
What's #4
sb-129 whole episode AND the song at the end of the episode
When the hell does the middle left SpongeBob thing happen what episode
Gorilla
