Not sure if they're exactly what you're looking for, but here's a couple darker tales you can find in AE:
#140423 "Blight" by @Witch Engine
#6391 "Young Love" by @TA
Craft your inventions in AE!!
Play "Crafter's Cafe" - Arc #487283. A 1 mission, NON-COMBAT AE arc with workable invention tables!
Are you outright looking for villainous arcs or are you okay with vigilante arcs leaning more towards the darker side? If the latter you may want to try Operation Oedipus: Glory of our Empire (#372767) and Operation Oedipus: Day of Infamy (#505627). Mainly the sequel but playing the first arc probably places it in better perspective.
Huh....
I never thought of it, but after re-running it for some tinkering, I'm gonna nominate my latest challenge arc, 505241.
WARNING: The faction in there is very, very tough at high settings! Run it at minimum unless you're on a serious build!
I totally did not plan for that arc to be so....grisly. But when I re-ran it, I was a bit surprised at myself. I must have been having a bad day or something. 
Background: This arc is sort of a sequel to my first challenge arc, which, now that I think about it, is pretty creepy too....
209245
Same warnings apply, run at minimum or I'm not responsible for your safety.
Man, my head is fulll of icky things.....

The Rise of the Blood Countess #3805
My arc is a bit heavy for the soloer.. But if you take a team with you or run with AV's turned off you will manage.
It is a story about horror, blood and sacrifice. It holds beat ups and tortured females... and bloody vampires.
Would that fit a bit?!
- The Italian Job: The Godfather Returns #1151
Beginner - Encounter a renewed age for the Mook and the Family when Emile Marcone escapes from the Zig!
- Along Came a... Bug!? #528482
Average - A new race of aliens arrives on Earth. And Vanguard has you investigate them!
- The Court of the Blood Countess: The Rise of the Blood Countess #3805
Advanced - Go back in time and witness the birth of a vampire. Follow her to key moments in her life in order to stop her! A story of intrigue, drama and horror! Blood & Violence... not recommend to solo!

So was that a good thing or a bad thing? |

Very historical, the bad guys are VERY tough but cool, all in all an excellent story.
I should run that again on one of my 'good' toons some day.
I've been told that Matchstick Women #3369 is kinda dark.

Thanks... and I recently updated it again with the steampunk pack.

I'm tried of arcs where spandex wearing morons trying to take over the world with their 4th grade teir plans. I need some arcs on the lines of Hostel, Human Centipede or Serbian Film. Anyone have those? I will review them in here if you want.
