* The forest haunted by the Glitch in "Tuesday the 17th" is fairly close to a residential area. (A house is visible at the turnoff to the dead-end road leading to the woods, and there are signs advertising homes for sale planted at that intersection.) How many potential victims are there for the Glitch, especially since it is likely less than an hour's walk to the nearest house?

* The party-seekers from "10/31/98" tease one another while they search the house, and one of the things they joke about is "people reaching out of the walls". Whatever the malignant presence [[spoiler: that they freed with the girl]] was, it was ''already listening to them'' before they went upstairs.
* "The Second Honeymoon" is a DoubleMeaningTitle; it can refer to either Stephanie and Sam on their roadtrip, or [[spoiler:her PsychoLesbian lover killing him and them escaping together]].

* Given the BookEnds wrap-up of "The Sick Thing That Happened To Emily When She Was Younger", one has to wonder if [[spoiler: the girl whom Emily said ''missed work because she was sick'' was actually recovering from her own ugly encounter with the child-aliens. Just how many young women has James been setting up to be exploited by them?]]
* Aside from any horrors that might await [[spoiler:Lily's last victim]] in ''Amateur Night'', consider Lisa. She might have avoided getting murdered like everyone else... but what happens when she wakes up in a bloody room with two bodies? She'd be the prime suspects for a double homocide, maybe quadruple even with the lack of the other two bodies...

** The ApocalypticLog trope tends to induce FridgeLogic as to why the character doesn't just drop the camera (or pen) and run, and Clint's video glasses make it more of a JustifiedTrope: They seem lightweight and unobtrusive enough that they're not hindering his ability to run away, so there's no reason for him to stop filming.

** Thankfully there'd be no evidence that she'd done it (she was passed out on the bed throughout, so her prints wouldn't be everywhere like the three men and Lily), but still a '''lot''' of psychological damage.

* On a second viewing of "Amateur Night", I also noticed that Lily appears prominently in the background a few times in the bar before she's actually introduced - most notably, she comes down the stairs immediately after the main characters do, possibly implying that she may have stealthily followed them there.

* As noted in the main page, Lily from "Amateur Night" has a MeaningfulName that seems to be a reference to the mythological succubus Lilith. By connection, her deformed, talon-like feet might be a nod to [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burney_Relief the Burney Relief]], which depicts a nude, goddess-like figure with wings and talons who may or may not be Lilith.
