History Main / EpilepticTrees

Epileptic trees that portend something so terrible or disappointing that everyone hopes they aren't true are known as WMG/PoisonOakEpilepticTrees. Epileptic Trees suggested ''in-universe'' by the characters themselves are a sign of ScullySyndrome. When an Epileptic Tree is rendered null and void by the official {{canon}}, it's said to be {{Jossed}}. When an Epileptic Tree becomes canon, you're allowed to say "IKnewIt" -- unless WordOfGod reveals it became canon ''because'' it was an Epileptic Tree, in which case it's AscendedFanon. See also InferredSurvival, UrbanLegendOfZelda and SchrodingersButterfly. Compare conspiracy theories, Epileptic Trees about RealLife.

Crazy theories are not only common, but expected; especially for mystery series already host to its fair share of MindScrew. An ongoing series which overuses ChekhovsGun to the point of becoming a ChekhovsArmoury encourages Trees because all newly introduced objects, people, skills, etc. will eventually be suspected of being a Chekhov's Gun. See StockEpilepticTrees for common species of Tree such as EveryoneIsJesusInPurgatory or AllJustADream. Not to be confused with AluminumChristmasTrees. Has nothing to do with EpilepticFlashingLights.
