I would say all of these films are adult in tone, a lot have PG ratings but that is due to animation being thought of as kids stuff.
I almost put in "Watership Down" as it is pretty traumatic stuff for many kids who grew up in that era.
Also i tried to focus on feature length films.
If i was including short features then top of my pile would be the Brothers Quay-
Street of crocodiles

Truly nightmarish.
Also a shout out to David Lynch's "The Grandmother" that surges from Live action into animation and is a nightmarish delicacy.
