* ''Manga/DragonBall'': One of the arenas in Urunai Baba's tournament is "The Devil's Cesspool". The name proves to be very apt; It's just a narrow bridge suspended over a pool of acid, making a challenging fight even moreso. The chamber gets its name from the fact that bridge is designed to look like the tongues of a pair of giant demons... sitting on toilet seats.

** {{Hell}}, naturally, is not a nice place to visit. In the original Ocean Group[=/=]early Funimation dub, the underworld's name was changed to the less offending, yet no less uninviting, "Home For Infinite Losers", or "HFIL" for short.

** In book 2, Captain Bob says all but the last word of the trope name when Wilma Winokea names the place of black water -- Deadman's Landing -- which she says is sacred to her people, and where she claims her son underwent the ritual to become a skinwalker.
** In book 6, the teens have to find a place for Wilma Winokea and Deputy Chad Barnes to stay, since they can't stay at any of the trio's homes. What they find is the [[Film/{{Psycho}} Bates Motel]], much to Captain Bob's distress -- as he puts it, "If I walk into that office and find Norman Bates sitting there wearing an old lady's wig and dress, I'm going to scream and run." Nina assures him it's just a coincidence, and that the motel's been there for as long as she can remember.
