Season One: Cheryl Sees Jason in Sweetwater River After Attempting Suicide

When Cheryl jumps into Sweetwater River and Archie fights to save her, she hallucinates Jason's dead body with a bullet hole in his head. What's even scarier is how Jason slowly reaches toward Cheryl while they're submerged. *Shivers*

Nana Rose Catches Betty and Jughead in Jason's Bedroom

Has Nana Rose randomly creeped into your dreams, or did that just happen to me?

"Dark Betty" Almost Kills Chuck Clayton

Betty's dark side almost pushes her over the edge when she nearly boils Chuck alive after his sexual encounter with Veronica. She almost seems possessed, but it just goes to show that Betty is battling some intense demons.

04
Clifford Blossom Hangs Himself
The CW

Clifford Blossom Hangs Himself

I really thought they weren't going to show Clifford's entire body during this scene. But they did, and it was gruesome.

05

The CW

Season Two: The Black Hood Introduces Himself by Brutally Murdering Miss Grundy

Miss Grundy certainly deserved to suffer some sort of consequence for continuously having relationships with underage students, but her murder is still frightening. It's also the first time we see the Black Hood in season two, and he undoubtedly makes his presence known.

06
Midge's Death Is Revealed in the Middle of a School Play
The CW

Midge's Death Is Revealed in the Middle of a School Play

This still blows my mind. Like how did nobody notice the Black Hood — a weird dude in a ski mask — lurking around backstage? And how did he have time to pin Midge's body on a wall and write messages with her blood? Still, the plot holes don't take away from the fact that this scene is horrific.

08
Chic Just Exists
The CW

Chic Just Exists

Chic doesn't have to do much to scare the daylights out of me. Just look at him. He can't be trusted.

09

The CW

FP Jones Carries Jughead's Beaten Body From the Woods

Of course Jughead isn't really dead, but watching FP carry his near-lifeless body will haunt me for a long time.

Season Three: Alice and Polly Use the Twins, Juniper and Dagwood, in a Ritual

I almost threw the remote at my TV and ran out of my apartment when those babies started levitating.

11
Jughead and Betty See the Gargoyle King For the First Time
The CW

Jughead and Betty See the Gargoyle King For the First Time

The Gargoyle King loses his intimidating aura throughout season three. But when we first see the ghoulish figure, it's rather petrifying.

Alice Cooper Is Almost Drowned
The CW

Alice Cooper Is Almost Drowned

Well, this is what happens when you decide to join a farm cult.

13

Cheryl Takes Jason's Dead Body From the Farm Cult to . . . Chat With Him?

This is just chilling (and gross), and I need Cheryl to let Jason rest in peace instead of a secret room in her house.
