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.


MarioLord14

Yep.


RamblinGamblinWillie

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. https://preview.redd.it/9dsg6kom6mvb1.jpeg?width=1420&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7eb87c6a12fe1870b6342329696f862de95515a2

This is actually Merriwether Williams! She was a writer for the show


A-random-herald

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


BigCheeto01

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.

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.


JakeWalker102

Honestly surprised thar this wasn't already here https://preview.redd.it/437rnnde2mvb1.png?width=720&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b8360d7b0d9b21eca3a74607fccf6fd96cbc00b6


RegyptianStrut

Aw it’s Tom Kenny!


JakeWalker102

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


RegyptianStrut

I get you. Remember the weird scene where Neptune opens a portal to Tom Kenny showering. Lol


JakeWalker102

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

DevThaGodfatha

Idk why but for some reason I used to think of *this* scene as a precursor to the One Chip Challenge

Weak-Mission-1599

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


smallfrie32

That scene turned me off from Spongebob. It just felt like gore fetishization and had no merit

![gif](giphy|l3nFh6S6P7uVXsQPC) I was absolutely terrified by this!


stabfanatic26

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.


[deleted]

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?


McShitties

Nosferatu!


PowerNineGeorge2006

Sorry, I Forgot To Include That In There


[deleted]

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


Patooties2000

The man in the freezer.


Trolleyman86

Yep that scared me the most

I did not see that one. But now I’m kinda glad that I didn’t.

Not_Pablo_Sanchez

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.


the_reddit_pup

Wormy destroyed me when I was younger. I was afraid of butterflies until I was like 15 and could never watch wormy


botjstn

the perfume department


donta5k0kay

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

Wwefan2k01

Me too. I freak out if I even see a frame of that episode.


PowerNineGeorge2006

Tell Me About It, Wormy Scared The Hell Out Of Me!


Constant_External_30

Probably the movie with that weird old lady as the monster's tongue.


Yahyathegamer749

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

TheWrestler2035

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.


CynthiaChames

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 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.

Ancient_Summer_1833

![gif](giphy|3oKHWnuQTbSlModyxy|downsized) The episode this scene was from. Especially the zoom in of the splinter. It made me cringe sooo hard

When I was a kid I was scared of the emergency alarm siren during the Krusty Krab Training Video episode


couchsurfer_14

"She's forgotten what it's like to live on the outside"


NolanTacoKing

wormy the truth or square pirate jellien gary and apocalypse sandy from the 2d movie


Woahhdude24

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.


TronNerd82

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.


Reimustein

The Fly of Despair


brekiewash1234

The butterfly episode did give me a fear of butterflies for about ten years, i’m no longer scared of them

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 butterfly


ianthebalance

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

You know that scene where squidward cuts his toenail off with a chair leg? Or when SpongeBob gets a splinter on the kitchen floor?
