- Sonic the Hedgehog 2 contains data for a cut level called “Genocide City”
- Obscure Wolfenstein clone Corridor 7 randomly jumpscares the player with a red demon face during regular gameplay

In The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, saving in Frostcrag Spire, quitting, uninstalling the Wizard’s Tower DLC, then loading the save dumps you in a debug cell the plugin overwrites which - among other things - connects to a completely unlit Oblivion tower. If you’re in a part of the wizard’s tower that doesn’t overlap with a in-bounds part of the debug map, you fall out of bounds when loading the file.
(In a decidedly un-scary note, you can retrieve a severely broken debug weapon and one of each sigil stone with every single effect while you’re in
