Scary Logos revisited

In my zeal to wax nostalgic about the "S From Hell" yesterday - I neglected to mention the creepiest television logo of all time. I'm referring of course to the Dic - "Kid in Bed" ident from the 1980's.

We have a kid - in bed - and he's sleeping under an open window while sinister music is playing. Not creepy enough for you? OK - we slowly zoom out through the window, and everybody naturally expects Freddy Krueger and/or The Wolf-Man to be standing outside. Instead we get the Dic (Dic? WTF?) logo, and a WEIRD little voice pronouncing it.

Get ready to wet your pants, here it is.
