- "And still she thirsted, and going to the Wells of Varda she drank them dry; but Ungoliant belched forth black vapours as she drank, and swelled to a shape so vast and hideous that Melkor was afraid."
- ― The Silmarillion
- "And time stopped. The atmosphere had plummeted several times in the ten odd minutes since everything had begun, but this time, it was on an entirely different level. The air didn't grow cold...It just stopped. Completely. The man who stepped into the manor then seemed to deny the very passage of time, seeming to take away not the air in their lungs but their very time itself. Even though he hadn't actually done anything except appear."
- ― Maria Barcelito describing Ronny Schiatto (Baccano)
- "Deep asleep is the king in me, the tyrants of earth will bow down, to this raging child. Empty vessels of this world will fear my name."
- ― The Enigma TNG - God Complex (Unused Lyrics)

The faces of Toepick's race (Ben 10: Omniverse) are so incomprehensibly scary, that even Celestialsapiens fear them.
Truth (Fullmetal Alchemist) can be infinitely scary. This is shown on various occasions, such as when sealing Father away.
As the Goddess of the Night, one of the Primordials, and the mother of Death itself, Nyx/Nox (Greco-Roman Mythology) was highly feared by everyone in the Greek pantheon. Even Zeus would swallow his pride rather than risk angering her.
Lord English (Homestuck) is an incredibly feared Demon, making his own author start panicking with his presence, even when armed with his weakness.
The Magic God (Teen Titans Go!) is feared for not only his judgments of other magicians, but also banishing most of them for all eternity.
