When designing a creature of some sort, a very good way to make them look weird is to mount their eyes (or eye) atop a pair of stalks.
As many other Eye Tropes have proven, messing with the eyes in any way is a sure-fire way to attract a few cocked eyebrows. Eyestalks tend to be very long and tentacle-like, and given the association between tentacles and Eldritch Abominations, it's no surprise that sticking some eyes on top of them would have that effect. In rare cases, the eyes themselves are stalk-shaped. It certainly helps that eyestalks in Real Life are associated with such 'icky' creatures as slugs and crabs. If a monster or a character has eyestalks and isn't antagonistic in some way, odds are they're Creepy Good, or at least quirky. Of course, some may just consider them Ugly Cute.
Is exceedingly common in clip art. Look up 'Cartoon Alien' on Google images, and you'll see eyestalks a-plenty.
Is a Sub-Trope of Eyes Do Not Belong There, as the weirdness factor comes from putting eyes in a place people aren't used to seeing them. May often overlap with Cyclops or Extra Eyes. Contrast with Oculothorax, in which the eye is so deep within the creature that it makes up the near-entirety of their body (though these are not mutually exclusive). See also Sensory Tentacles.

In episode 24a of Jewelpet: Magical Change, Ruby's attempt to make Labra's potted plant bloom with magic instead causes it to become sapient and gain a pair of eyes on eyestalks. This is a Japanese Visual Pun - "me" can mean either "sprout" or "eye".

World of Warcraft takes this trope to its logical conclusion, featuring an enemy in Naxxramas that is literally a giant eyestalk sticking out of a hole in the ground. This game also features the Makrura, a race of humanoid Lobsters with eyestalks to match.

Dungeons & Dragons:
Beholders are giant floating ball creatures with a huge central eye and numerous writhing eyestalks all over their head, each of which can project an Eye Beam imbued with a different spell's power.
The eye of the deep is similar to the beholder: it has one large central eye in its body and two smaller eyes on long stalks. These small eyes can create an illusion while acting together and cast hold person and hold monster when acting independently.
Spectators are beholder-like creatures with four small eyes on stalks. The eyes have the magical powers of create food and water, cause serious wounds, paralyzation ray and telepathy.
The flumph has two four-inch-long eyestalks sticking out of the sides of its mouth. These are flexible enough to allow their owner to peer over its body's rim to see what's going underneath them when flying and can be retracted into the body, which flumphs usually do when sleeping.
The froghemoth has three eyes on three-foot long retractable eyestalks. While hiding underwater, it uses them to peek out above the surface to find prey.
Giant crabs have eyestalks sticking out of their heads like normal crabs.
The gorbel has six small eyes on short retractable stalks equally spaced around its spherical body.
Hordlings have random body parts. They have a 16% chance of having eyes on stalks.
The otyugh and neo-otyugh each have a stalk with multiple eyes on it that rises out of their bodies.
The wolf-in-sheep's-clothing is a plant that looks like a tree stump with tentacles. It has two or three eyestalks that it uses to target its prey.
In the 2nd Edition Monstrous Manual, crabmen are changed to look like giant crabs walking on their hind legs and given eyes on stalks.

From Pokémon, we have Sigilyph and some species of Unown. Sigilyph is a three-eyed winged totem with an eyestalk that looks like a head, while some of the Unown exaggerate this trope by being an eyestalk and nothing else (sometimes upside-down, though).

SpongeBob SquarePants:
Gary and Mr. Krabs have eye stalks, appropriate for their respective species (snail and crab, respectively). In Krab's case, the eyeballs are stalk-shaped, which is true of some crab species. In Gary's case, the eyes are at the ends of tentacles. Interestingly enough in real life, the only snails to have eyestalks are terrestrial pulmonate snails. Both can still blink like a human.
Spongebob himself gets his eyes on stalks in the Face Freeze episode, as a result of gurning too much.

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic:
The giant eels in "Gauntlet of Fire" have a third eye on a thin stalk growing from their foreheads.
The fishlike creature seen among the show's nonspecific background monsters, in addition to a single central eye, has two smaller ones at the end of long stalks.

The Daleks of Doctor Who infamy provide a mechanical example; defeating them often revolves around attacking it. Their true forms don't have these, though they look unsettling in other ways.

Numerous aliens throughout the Men in Black series have eyestalks, along with just about every other alien design trope, seeing as though they run the gamut from Human Aliens to Starfish Aliens.

The giant octopus from Return To Neverland has eyestalks, even though real octopuses don't.note Well, mimic octopuses◊ do, but the octopus in the movie looks nothing like one The stalk eyes help make the octopus look creepy and otherwordly.

The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks: Phytops is an ivy/octopus hybrid which has eyes in its lower tentacle-like branches. When Link is climbing atop the Ocean Temple to confront it, he first has to use the Whip to grab some thorns and shoot them at the branches' eyes in order to remove them and keep climbing.
