Hannibal: 10 Greatest 'Holy Sh*t!' Moments So Far

2. Will Graham Coughs Up An Ear

Episode: Savoureux Cannibalism is easy to deal with psychologically when you don't have to sympathize with the characters who commit it. So after all the serial murder, cannibalism, and human butchery the first season has gone through, the most horrifying moment of Will Graham's journey is when he wakes up from another restless night, and coughs an ear up into the sink. A DNA test later confirms this as Abigail Hobbs' ear, who Will Graham had seen almost as a daughter-figure. More horrifying is the absence of clarity surrounding her disappearance and death €“ Will Graham does not know what happened to Abigail, (though his discovery makes her survival unlikely) and he cannot trust himself enough to know he didn't kill her.
