The scariest scene for me out of all 7 books is the Tash part in LB, especially when I was reading that passage while looking at a HUGE full-color picture of Tash! I think he represents the devil. I think I had a tiny nightmare. But I RARELY get nightmares from books, even Tolkien ones. (It's realistic to me.) But stuff that really creeps me out, are stories about Sorry, didn't want to creep people out. The next scariest scene is the dark island part.

The scariest for me was probably in Horse And His Boy.

The scene where Lasaraleen and Aravis are hiding in the same room as where the Tisroc, Prince Rabadash, and Grand Vizier Ahosta are complotting an attack against Archenland. Cause you know they will be tortured and killed if they were discovered.

I'd say dark island, but here's the thing. I've heard that C.S.Lewis rewrote parts of that chapter for a later edition because he felt it wasn't sensitive enough to children's nightmares. Does anyone know if this is true, and if so, what those differences are?
After dark island comes Tash.

Dinode, Yes, there are differences between the British Publication (the first edition) and the American Publication (the second edition). (I believe, nowadays, only the English version is published. Okay, to show you the differences, I'm going to quote Paul F. Ford's Pocket Companion to Narnia:Dreams~

"It is in VDT...in the experience of the Dark Island, that the subject of dreams becomes most vivid, and Lewis considered this so important that he made several substantial changes in the text between the British and old American editions of the book. After the DAWN TREADER emerges from the darkness, the British edition (now the English edition for the world) says, "all at once everybody realized that there was nothing to be afraid of and never had been. They blinked their eyes and looked about them." In the old American editions, Lewis deletes these two sentences entirely, thinking perhaps that he was making too little of the reality of which the travelers were afraid. He replaces these sentences with one long, beautiful similie, one of the finest he ever wrote...This is a major change: Lewis here is hightlighting the joy of waking after a night of fear. The next change comes by way of an omission. Both editions print the expectation the crew has that the ship will be covered with grime and scum. The British edition goes on to say: "And then first one, and then another, began laughing. 'I reckon we've made pretty good fools of ourselves,' said Rynelf." The old American editions delete both sentences, thereby removing another denigration of the seriousness of night fears. When Caspian asks what boon Lord Rhoop wishes the King to grant, the British edition prints: "'Never to bring me back there,' he said. He pointed aster. They all looked. But they saw only bright blue sea and bright blue sky. The Dark Island and the darkness had disappeared forever. 'Why!' cried Lord Rhoop. 'You have destroyed it.' 'I don't think it was us,' said Lucy." Lewis reconstructs this entirely for the old American editions: "'Never to ask me, nor to let any other ask me, what I have seen during my years on the Dark Island,' 'And easy boon, my Lord,' answered Caspian, and added with a shudder, 'Ask you: I should think not. I would give all my treasure not to hear it.'""

Sorry. Long quote. He just states it all so well.
In my opinion, LB in general holds the scariest scenes, like the whole "Tashland" thing, and Shift, and when Farsight comes and tells Tirian and the rest that Cair Paravel is taken and Tirian replies, "All worlds do come to an end. Narnia is no more." That is pretty heart wrenching...although I guess you could qualify that more as terribly sad than scary. Overall though, I would probably rate Tash to be the scariest thing in Narnia

Probably when Edmund betrays his brother and sisters, it really is scary to have a brother who you know you are related by blood then you suddenly knew he tricks you because of his own pride. Well, it really is scary and creepy. *shrugs*

sandyentersnarnia, good point about Edmund. It is kinda creepy!

I think for me, though, the scariest scene was in LB, what with Tash and all. I still get shivers whenever I read it! Besides that, though, I would get really scared at the part in HHB where Aravis and Lasaraleen were hiding behind the couch. That part always creeped me out! I was so afraid that they were going to get caught.

Thanks Sheroo of Stormness Head.
I wonder which version the movie will end up being like?

Dark Island, like a lot of people. Also, Deathwater always was a bit creepy for me--how they finally figured out how the lord (I don't remember the name right now, sorry) died. Trying to cool off with a nice swim and then getting turned into gold is such an awful way to die.

The scariest part for me was definitely in LB when they are thrown into the barn. Anytime Tash is mentioned in the books, really, is very frightening.

Also I was quite on edge in VDT when Lucy is walking down the upstairs hall thinking that magician could be in any room, and that he could hear her. That part really freaked me out!

The Dufflepuds. Definitely the Dufflepuds. Those things creep me out.

^Oh yeah! Knowing you can only hear them, and yet you still don't see them, creepy!

P.S. Welcome!

Like many others, I found the Tash scene in LB very disturbing - not only the description of Tash, but the reactions of the characters. Puzzle screaming and scrambling into the tower somehow made it even more freaky, because such extreme reactions from those around you can often make you panic even more in a frightening situation.

A slightly weird one for me was a specific part of Lucy's exploration of Coriakin's house. There's one point when she turns around and catches sight of something horrible in a mirror, before she realises it's herself and the mirror has strange facial features tacked onto it to make the viewer look grisly. I have a... thing... about facial distortion and catching glimpses of nasty things in mirrors, so that really pushed all my buttons.

^Yeeeah, the second choice was creepy. I can imagine myself in her position while I was reading it.

P.S. Welcome!

There’s a lot of really creepy scenes in the books. Some that come to mind are:

The last battle in LB when they’re slowly getting closer and closer to the stable door. This scene is even worse after Eustace is thrown into the stable. Up until that point I didn’t think the children would really be hurt, that made the scene all the more real.

When Digory and Polly find Charn. That whole dead world part was creepy.

When Shasta is waiting at the tomes. Reading that it was easy to feel scared like him.

The first half of the Last Battle
