For such an even-tempered series where relatively little happens, Mad Men has its fair share of bizarre moments.

Though it revolved around smooth-talking Don Draper's hedonistic lifestyle, the show also played into surprisingly macabre plot lines. Showrunner Matt Weiner was a writer and producer of The Sopranos, after all -- he's used to delivering drama with a violent curveball or two.

Mad Men's jarring moments were vital; they prevented the series from being a monotonous replica of life in the 1960s. From the surreal to the downright grisly moments (and basically the entirety of season six), here are some of the darkest things that have ever happened on Mad Men.

Hats off to you, Matt Weiner -- you are one twisted fellow.

Warning: Spoilers from every season of the show ahead.
