Scariest Death Scene

The death scenes in this movie are what scared me the most when I was a kid. Even now, they're kinda hard to watch. To all the YSH fans out there, which "death-by-drugs" scene did you think was the most frightening?

Bentley Bobster- attacked by a pheasant he was about to eat
Bentley Bobster- watched apartment burned up by living lamp
Reverend Nesbitt- chased out of chapel by infamous stained glass knight
Rupert Waxflatter- attacked by gargoyle bookends

Brother Maynard, bring forth the holy hand grenade!

I would say the knight, But they would all scare me to death!

I think the pheasant scene was a little scary to me when I was younger because the way the pheasant looked mad when he was attacking Bobster.

That's exactly what I thought.

Neither, for me it was the first sacrifice where the girl gets that burning *beep* tipped over her after she's been wrapped up like a mummy.

It is all a hallucination when the first people go, the girls death in the Temple is far more chilling.

I love the effects in the hallucination scenes. the girls' deaths were always very sad and haunting for me. both the one wrapped up and burned/boiled in the ritual and poor elizabeth, shot down. pity watson wasn't such a med nerd that he couldn't have tackled her wound better. or at least sought a doctor!
