I recently became addicted to CreepyPasta and it got me wondering, what are some magic cards, flavour text, art, etc. that you all consider creepy?
I really like the Kirschner art for Grave Pact(Stronghold). It feels really eerie, looking out from the grave with three dudes standing there, just something about it...:(
So yeah, I'm curious about all yours!

x It has been my honor to improve on the Thran's original design. Perhaps history will remember me in some small part for my work. -Urza x
Village Cannibals is the only Magic card to have really really seriously given me the creeps. Maybe I have an irrational fear of people eating me while I'm lying in bed, I dunno.
Lol, sorry, creepypasta is a meme, a bunch of eerie stories meant to incite disturbing levels of fear when read, Google it, its good stuff, albeit super addicting!
And I would agree with village cannibals! What a creepy card and ability...:o

Oh man, pulling teeth is bad. Reminds me of that scene in human centipede 2, the scene where the little creepers is hammering the guys teeth out...I'm going to go vomit...:o

My all time favorite creepy card is the art of Life's Finale.
It looks as if all the blades came out of the ground rapidly while these poor Mirrans were running in terror. It also looks as if it took a couple of them a little while longer to die after being skewered. AHHH just the thought of gravity taking over and your body sliding down around the blade-- Okay I have to stop. I'm creepin' myself out now.

That's cool Vexxillion, really getting into that pic
My personal favorite is Nightmare, by Carl Critchlow, and not the original art.
Its eyes are haunting. The atmosphere is thick with the very dread it appears to breath. Detail in its definition gives it a tangibility, that along with its suggested movement, pulls you into the moment a dream turns... wrong.
You don't call "dying to removal" if the removal is more expensive in resources than the creature. If you have to spend BG (Abrupt Decay), or W + basic land (PtE) to remove a 1G, that is not "dying to removal". Strictly speaking Goyf dies to removal, but actually your removal is dying to Goyf.

Just some ideas: Witch-Maw Nephilim, Glint-Eye Nephilim, Dune-Brood Nephilim, Emrakul's Hatcher, and It That Betrays.
Also, for surreal cartoonish creepiness: Eerie Procession, Sickening Shoal, and Polymorph.
Absolutely horrifying and disgusting and icky: Syphon Flesh.
EEEK!!!
(My apologies.)
@Philip
Yeah, those Nephilim to incite an eerie sense of hopelessness when looked at. Great selections! I'm getting a kick at checking all these out
Double posts merged, infracted
I agree, that flesh corpse is creepy!
A couple more favorites of mine, Head Games and Dark Tutelage! Both of these feel creepy, I would hate to be the subject in both of those instances!
You rang?
Oh, the card.
I don't have anything that makes me shudder or anything. But that might be because I collect those homonculus tokens from Conflux. :B
Zombie Rats is pretty gross
As prompted by certain threads on the forums, I'm now certain that the planeswalkers in DGM will be.... Ral Zarek, Morsel of the Firemind.

Alpha/Beta Demonic Tutor kinda gets to me too, even the Judge Gift version...Daarken is an awesome artist!
This, exactly this.
The creator of Maro's Magic 8-Ball!
Speaking of Gazes, foresee is pretty hard to look at :D!
And I agree with phyrexian unlife!

Or at least that's what I make of it
