We do a lot of medical books here at work, and we started keeping a library of the worst of the worst images we're given years ago, the legendary OMG folder. It's got over 1000 images in it, we used make fake death metal album covers out of them for fun.
The worst are always the baby pictures, when my girlfriend got pregnant, i often spent sleepless nights wondering if one of those horrors would befall my son... thank goodness it didn't.

That Black Dahlia link reminds me of Saul Peter Witkin's arranged corpse photography. Not suitable for lilly-livered gentlefolk....

Imagine being Joel Peter Witkin though. The process of obtaining the bodies, transporting them to your studio, cutting them up.... the smell, the horror of decomposing internal organs dribbling everywhere... manually lifting a body with half a head into the set you've constructed, lopping off its arm and placing it on the table with a pineapple, finding ways of propping the torso up so it looks purposeful and poised, and then photographing them.
That whole process fascinates me. Imagine if a passer-by needed a glass of water and wandered in by mistake to find a stinking blood-soaked man in overalls humping a fat woman's carcass onto a bar stool with a doll shoved in the cavity where he brain used to be... image the insanity of unwittingly coming across Witkin at work! HAHAHA, it would be your worst horrror movie moment smacking you right in the face and he'd be stood there wide eyed, panic struck, waving his arms and shouting "NO NO NO ITS OKAY, I'M AN ARTIST! HONEST! ITS FINE! ITS ART! ITS ART!".
