* GrandFinale: The series has three:
** The first is "Running Away With You", the original planned BittersweetEnding of the series. [[spoiler:Dorian discovers how a supernatural entity became his imaginary friend and killed his governess, and to free her spirit he decides to destroy his portrait. This kills him and leaves his soul trapped, but he dies saving someone and at least is able to relive his memories.]]
** "Ever After", the official DownerEnding of the entire series. [[spoiler:Dorian is trapped in an institution where it's claimed that he's simply a delusional man who thinks he's Dorian Gray, the return of his soul being too difficult for him to handle along with the death of his OneTrueLove Toby. He ends up seemingly dying for real during a lobotomy, meaning the entire series either never happened or Lucifer took away Dorian's immortality and allowed him to die.]]
** "The Last Confession, the BittersweetEnding originally intended for Series 5 before being replaced by "Ever After". [[spoiler:Toby is still killed by Lucifer and Dorian struggles with the return of his soul, but after a confrontation with Lucifer resolves to become the AntiAntiChrist by refusing his offer to let him finally die and resolving to spent his immortality fighting Lucifer's plans.]]

The series ended with its fifth season released in October 2016. However since then there have been other releases: "The Lost Confessions" in August 2019, which are three stories read by Vlahos that were never made including the original ending to the series; "Isolation", a free short audio made in March 2020 due to the UsefulNotes/COVID19Pandemic; and a MilestoneCelebration in [[SignificantReferenceDate October 2022]] in the form of an audio story titled "The Anniversary'", which includes a short audio read by Vlahos called ''Grey Matter'', and a ten minute [[LiveActionAdaptation short film]] starring Vlahos as Dorian titled ''Before Your Eyes''. This possibly makes it the only audio original series to be adapted into live-action.

Added DiffLines:

* FramingDevice: The series is told with Dorian narrating the events of the story, though Series 3 abandoned this idea as did "The Spirits of Christmas" and "Ever After". Series 2 explained that [[spoiler:Dorian was narrating what happened to himself while he was trapped in his portrait and reliving his memories]]. The first three audios of Series 5 has Oscar Wilde, James Anderson and Dorothy Parker narrating what happened.
