Any scene location where the villains do their plotting is invariably dark. This includes, but is not limited to, starship command centers, unethical laboratories, and throne rooms. A more personal effect is when the villain seems to absorb the light around him, presenting dramatic shadows that you could have sworn weren't there moments before the heroes arrived. In some circumstances, it's obvious. The villains don't want to meet on the street, either to conspire or with a victim of Blackmail, or travel with their ill-gotten and conspicuous goods, or go into their stronghold when it's broad daylight; people will see them. Night is necessary to hide. Also, they may not want the characters they are talking to to be able to recognize them, and gloom helps there. But they don't turn on the lights once they're inside the stronghold and everyone knows them. Interestingly enough, it has been produced in a lab: people are more likely to be dishonest/commit moral transgressions in a dark environment. Perhaps it is revealing What You Are in the Dark. Often the setting for the Omniscient Council of Vagueness. Glowy orange or purple colors are optional. Compare Empathic Environment, Sliding Scale of Shiny Versus Gritty, and Face Framed in Shadow. See also Dark Is Evil, Darkness Equals Death, and Nocturnal Crime for why this trope is employed, and Chiaroscuro (and the page image) for another reason why. Compare and contrast Light Is Not Good. Compare The Future Is Noir, a setting trope for the Sci-Fi genre. |

Sluggy Freelance both plays straight and lampshades this one with sinister corporation Hereti-Corp, whose "Evil Room" is kept dark. Lampshaded in its initial appearance and again when the company is dismantled and its leaders take over a fast-food franchise from the bottom up. The rebuilt corporation of later years plays it straight. | |

This happens in Asfour when Itzik is taken to meet Saragousti. Justified, as Saragousti has suffered very severe brain damage several years prior, barely moves if at all, and does not speak. Kobi uses him as a dummy boss quite literally; in that scene, he keeps Saragousti seated on a revolving chair with his back to the unwitting Itzik, who is very nervous about the scene. | |

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. somewhat inverts this. S.H.I.E.L.D.’s science labs and many of its other facilities are typically dimly lit and have mainly dark colours in their interior design, contrasting with the white walls and bright lights of the HYDRA lab where Jemma Simmons works as a mole in the second season. | |

In The Orville, Krill ships are dark inside. Justified as they evolved on a planet that doesn't get any sunlight and are therefore used to darkness. They require tinted helmets and full-body protection to operate in what humans consider natural lighting; exposure to enough UV light to give a human a sunburn is instantly fatal. | |

In Manehattan's Lone Guardian, the initial meetings between Cocoa Mocha's agents and his proxy, Ignition, take place in a completely darkened room. Comments are made that the agents can only see each other because of whatever gear they're equipped with, with the possibility of replacement lights being brought up. One of the agents even quips that their leader has it completely dark because he likes hearing them hit their legs on the furniture. New lights are eventually installed, putting an end to this. | |

In Wario Land: Shake It!, the throne room the Shake King stays in through about 90% of the game is literally completely dark. As in, the bit Wario enters from is pretty much just a black screen and the rest of it seems like only half the lights are on, to the point where you can see the villain's eyes glowing in the dark. | |

Akatsuki in Naruto were initially shown to meet in a really dark cave with only their outlines being (barely) visible. This is eventually explainable as security protocol. When all they're doing is meeting, they pick a place nobody (including them) has ever physically gone near to minimize the chances of spies already present and use telepresence to minimize the chance of being followed. Once their meetings start requiring physical supplies on hand, those include lights. | |

The Night Unfurls has several of such locations. The Black Fortress, true to its name, is a dark place bound to the will of its mistress, Olga Discordia. Its hallways are always dimly lit with torches. The Malys Estate is the domain of the Leaping Lizards and later Shamuhaza, who not only experimented on the former group to produce more mutated troops, but also became an Eldritch Abomination himself. The estate is so dark that the three hunters attacking the place have to use a lantern and a couple of torches to advance. The fact that their company launches the attack at night only serves to deepen the darkness within. The place where an unnamed group of nobles and clergymen are plotting at the end of Chapter 10, remastered version is an undisclosed location in the dark. |

Harry Potter: Lord Voldemort, a.k.a. the Dark Lord is very fond of this trope. His favorite scenes for evil showdowns include an old graveyard (at midnight) and a vast chamber filled with snake statues built far underground. Also, Slytherin house, which has a far greater ratio of mean students to nice ones, has a common room that is noticeably darker compared to the common rooms of the other houses. Lampshaded by Dumbledore, who believes Voldemort is using the darkness and the death motifs to scare his enemies. From what we heard of Slytherin, he wasn't a very pleasant person, and the students who are enrolled in his house are usually very much like him, so it's somewhat justified. | |

Count Bleck's Castle in Super Paper Mario is completely black, with only the walls, floor, and other features bordered with white lines.◊ In Paper Mario 64, the two main rooms of Peach's Castle are a lot darker when under Bowser's control; this works out to Peach's benefit. Most of the side rooms are still well-lit, though. In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, when you reach the room where the Shadow Queen appears, the plethora of candles go out and a darker flame appears on each. |

Parodied in Freakazoid!, when Cobra Queen dramatically welcomes her old foe Atomic Boy to her lair... only for Freakazoid to awkwardly identify himself. An apologetic Cobra Queen admits she made the mistake because there's so little light in her sewer hideout. Freakazoid suggests that she could brighten the place up with some Japanese paper lanterns ("Japanese paper lanterns? Are they expensive?" "Nah, my dad got a bunch of them for the backyard."); the next time we see her lair, she has taken his advice. | |

Averted, sort of, in The Man Who Was Thursday, when the Supreme Council of Anarchy meets over breakfast in broad daylight in a very public location. Of course, as with just about any other event in the novel, there's more going on than meets the eye. For starters, none of the Council members are actually evil. | |

The Order of the Stick: There's the deep dark Dungeon of Dorukan in the first mention of plot. Interestingly it doesn't seem to be that dark inside; the PCs aren't even carrying torches. Of course, while the current occupant is evil the original builder was not. Subverted with the Monster in the Darkness, which is always shadowed by magical darkness. He is not really evil and wants more than everything get out of the darkness. The problem is that he is the secret weapon of the villains who don't want to reveal him until the dramatically appropriate moment. |

Stargate: Averted with the Goa'uld, the Ori, and the Asurans, as all of them had pretty well-lit ships. Played straight with Replicators and the Wraith. Seemingly inverted in Stargate Universe, as the Destiny (and presumably the other very old Ancient ships) was darker than the hostile alien ships were so far. | |

New Avengers (2015) has a borderline parody of the trope in the form of Mor-i-dun, dark star-wizard of the fifth (aka dark) cosmos, who isn't only fond of lurking in the shadows but a power so dark that its mere presence makes the lights go out, scaring the Maker's henchmen. | |

Averted, however, with the Kendars, who conduct their business under bright electric lamps as part of their Light Is Not Good theme. | |

Doom: The levels in the Playstation and Saturn ports of Doom are quite a bit darker than their console counterparts thanks to the use of colorized sectors and shadows to give the levels a more foreboding feeling. This was carried over into Doom 64. The monsters in the Doom mod Lasting Light thrive in the dark: the Screecher can pounce on you with impunity in the dark, the Creeper hates the light and will attack you if lit by your lantern for more than a split second, and the Stalker doesn't need light to see you by. Justified in Doom³: the Mars base has suffered from bureaucratic meddling since its founding, so it was never fully installed with proper lighting and is severely behind repair during the game's events. Furthermore, the secret teleporter experiments are wreaking havoc with the power grid, resulting in short circuits, blackouts and outright burn-outs across the base. |

Inverted in Mass Effect. Compared to the portrayal in the first and third games where it's an Alliance ship the Normandy is extremely bright in Mass Effect 2 where it's being operated by Cerberus, a terrorist group. Also, one of your crew in the third game even justify why having the lights up is a bad idea - in case the ship is attacked then it's harder for the crew's eyes to adjust to the shift into complete darkness. This is only one of many issues the retrofitting team had with Cerberus' engineering choices. Pilot Joker mentions they also made other civilian-friendly changes like making the chairs comfortable. | |

The evil owner of the baseball team from The Natural kept his office unlit. That led to a humorous scene when the hero turned on the light on his way out, and the team owner completely overreacted. (Roger Ebert complained about the opposite device in his review, saying that Robert Redford and Glenn Close were frequently lit like angelic beings, just in case you didn't know who to root for.) | |

Star Trek: Federation starships are definitely better lit than Romulan, Borg, or Klingon ships (even after Klingons became good guys). Star Trek: Deep Space Nine carries on the tradition with the Cardassians, but also plays with it a bit in "The Wire" when Garak complains that from his point of view, the public areas of the station are bright enough to cause him considerable discomfort; presumably, he's too proud to replicate a pair of sunglasses. Terran Empire ships in Enterprise and Discovery. The latter eventually gives an explanation: the Terrans are more sensitive to light than prime universe humans, which results in Burnham realizing that her Captain Gabriel Lorca is, in fact, Terran. In the Star Trek: Voyager episode "Living Witness", a historian has given the 'Warship Voyager' a Historical Villain Upgrade; in his holographic simulation all Voyager's internal lights are dim and Captain Janeway is introduced with her Face Framed in Shadow, monologuing on how Might Makes Right. |

In Transformers: War for Cybertron, when Optimus, Bumblebee and Sideswipe allow themselves to be taken to the Decepticon capital of Kaon in an attempt to rescue Autobot leader Sentinel Prime, its dingy, dark appearance contrasts with how shiny Iacon (the Autobot capital) was in comparison. Unusually, the boss fight with Sentinel Prime in the Decepticon campaign (which takes place chronologically earlier than the Autobot campaign) takes place in a fairly dark facility lit only by Sentinel's defenses and Tron Lines on the walls and floor. This was deliberate to show Sentinel, compared to his successor Optimus, wasn't exactly the nicest guy. In the sequel Transformers: Fall of Cybertron, you see more of Kaon (compared to just Kaon Prison as in War For Cybertron). Even the gladiatorial arena is just as dark and as gloomy as the prison, to say nothing of Soundwave's lab. |

Then we get the Big Bad from a previous arc, cheerfully answering the phone in a brightly lit kitchen, cooking dinner and wearing a "Kiss the Cult Leader" apron. |

The Witch of Knightcharm is set in an evil Wizarding School which is built in a castle-like structure deep underground. The only light sources are wall-mounted torches and a few magical lights, none of which are enough to stop the school from looking dark and gloomy. | |

This is very much the case in Darkest Dungeon, although oddly enough the most evil locations - the Courtyard and the Darkest Dungeon itself - are somewhat better lit than the Weald, Warrens, Ruins, and Cove. All four cases are justified: the Ruins are a twisted knot of warped corridors with only a few above-ground windows; the Warrens are long-buried ruins that are inhabited by pig-monsters (pigs have pretty bad eyesight in real life); the Cove is mostly a cave network covered in ancient, eldritch ruins; and the Weald is a claustrophobic forest with an incredibly dense and dark canopy. (As for the exceptions, the Courtyard is mostly an above-ground swamp where there is at least some daylight, and the Darkest Dungeon is given reduced torch consumption as one of the game's few Anti-Frustration Features.) | |

Good Omens (2019) depicts Hell as a gloomy, underlit, shadowy, place. Heaven, by contrast, is so brightly lit that the intense white light and lack of shadows makes it equally opressive and unpleasant. Ironically, the earth-bound Angel Aziraphile prefers his home, a second-hand bookshop, to be underlit and a little gloomy; the earth-bound demon Crowley's home is spacious, sunny and well-lit. | |

In El Goonish Shive, Lord Tedd is shown to be in a dark room in two out of three of his appearances. The third appearance is in well-lit rooms. He seems far more evil in the dark room than in the well-lit rooms to the point of seeming to be a different person entirely (which is not out of the question given the multiversal setting). | |

Child of the Storm features this frequently with its villains: Gravemoss, the most vile member of the HYDRA alliance, initially skulks in the Catacombs of Paris, before moving to the poorly lit basement of HYDRA's main base; the Red Room favour attacks in the dark and at night (though at the same time, they're perfectly happy to act in broad daylight, flaunting their believed impunity); Dracula (for obvious reasons) acts at night as do his minions, instigating a massive blackout of New York (as the Heirs of Kemmler do in Chicago at the same time) to add to the fear factor, along with a massive storm to blot out all natural light; the Elder Wyrm lives in darkened catacombs beneath the Hogwarts Lake and its Wights hunt among the tunnels, being happy to keep to the shadows (though it is also perfectly happy to break out into the sunlight); even Surtur ( the original Dark Phoenix) despite his fiery associations is often cast in shadow, being referred to as a being 'of shadow and flame'. | |

Justified in Doom³: the Mars base has suffered from bureaucratic meddling since its founding, so it was never fully installed with proper lighting and is severely behind repair during the game's events. Furthermore, the secret teleporter experiments are wreaking havoc with the power grid, resulting in short circuits, blackouts and outright burn-outs across the base. | |
