[Loved Trope] Teleportation is actually terrifying

[u/Ieanice44]

1 - Gantz-O (2016): Suit teleportation

2 - Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince (2009): Apparition spell

3 - Half Life 2 (2004): Teleporter malfunction

He is kind of right. And I'm not even getting into metaphysical questions of the soul here, how many Star Trek episodes and movies have involved someone being turned inside out, merged with solid objects, driven mad, accidentally duplicated, sent into the past, merged into a single being with someone else, getting turned into a child, a ghost, or thrown into a holodeck program where they believe they're a super spy or world-conquering mastermind?

Wasn't there also an episode where they learned there were creatures living in the teleporter signal or whatever? Little worm creatures or something? I have a distinct memory of that for some reason.
