There are so many Children€™s TV shows that are disturbing in a variety of different ways. There€™s the intentionally creepy such as Courage the Cowardly Dog; the unintentional creepy such as Lamb Chop and the tragic animal slaughter of Animals of Farthing Wood. Here€™s a rundown of my Top 5 most disturbing TV shows created for children.

5. The Demon Headmaster

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fNvonmzf8fk The Demon Headmaster was some downright creepy stuff and I€™m not surprised that it€™s no longer running. I don€™t think the Beeb would allow a program based in a school and centred on a headmaster with pervy eyes to exist on their channels these days. What was most disturbing about the Demon Headmaster was that with children€™s imaginations being so wild, it didn€™t take long until viewers started to wonder if their own headmaster was as evil as Terrence Hardiman€™s demonic eyed titular character. As if school wasn€™t scary enough for children, damn homework!

4. Are You Afraid of the Dark?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3pBBLN0w7NY&feature=related I€™ll admit, I couldn€™t watch this when I was growing up. The creepy intro was more than enough to make me grab my football and go scurrying out the door, but then again I was (and still am) a scaredy cat when it came to TV and Film. I could quite easily have included Goosebumps, a similar concept, but felt that the episodes from Are You Afraid were just that bit scarier. The vampire in €˜The Tale of the Midnight Madness€™ is one of the creepiest vampires to grace the small screen, and it doesn€™t even need to say a word! €˜The Tale of the Laughing Dark€™ is widely seen as one of the series scariest episodes, no wonder so many kids grow up scared of clowns!
