What is the most scary in prog?
For me, any song of The Residents scares me...
Shub Niggurath is pretty disturbing too, but not as The Third Reich'n Roll

Excellent and scary :-)

Love Beach. Yeah, I know that joke's old. In all seriousness, I might have to agree with Clutch. Tangerine Dream know how to make horror movie background music like no one else.

One of my first musical loves was the dark and scary world of early industrial music. Albums by Throbbing Gristle, Coil, Skinny Puppy, SPK, Current 93 and Nurse With Wound can be downright terrifying... just the way I like it!

I agree about Shub-Niggurath's Les morts vont vite.

Also, Guapo's Black Oni.

Although I don't find any music scary.  The above two albums are just dark really.

Strange, I've never found Van Der Graaf Generator's music to be scary.  I could see why "The Clot Thickens" could be a little chilling, but other than that, nothing to disturbing.

Now, this on the other hand:

It also happens to be brilliant, too.  Also, "Interstellar Overdrive" and "A Saucerful of Secrets" made me panic the first time I listened to them back when my ears were young and inexperienced.

Even the "Cog" section of "Lemmings"?

When I heard Roger belt out the scream for the first time on "Careful With That Axe, Eugene" on the Ummagumma Live disc, I just about jumped out of my skin.

As beautiful as maudlin of the Well can be, both Bath and Leaving Your Body Map have some pretty freaky sections. Confused
 
Also, 'Welcome to the Machine'... very creepy song.

The Residents' music seems purely satirical to me; I can't listen to any of their albums without laughing, especially Third Reich.

I mean, come on. If their cover of "Horse With No Name" isn't the most hilarious song ever put to record, then I don't know what is.

A Louse Is Not a Home - Peter Hammill comes to mind at first but once I think about it The Wall kind of scared me first listen.  It's an unsettling concept for a rock album truthfully.

I'm surprised nobody mentioned Klaus Schulze's first two albums. Those two just give me nightmares. Also, Iced Earth's "Dante's Inferno", although not prog per se, is still pretty damn scary. Let's not forget "Lark's Tongue in Aspic, Pt. 1"- I always feel the part after the percussion intro is the soundtrack to someone going to hell. Oh jeez, there's too much creepy prog out there lol.
