Kill Em All was renamed Everybody Dies Ending due to misuse. Dewicking


* DoubleStandardRapeFemaleOnMale: Completely averted [[spoiler:in the KillEmAll ending. When Luke finds himself trapped inside the mansion and the ghost rapes him, the game pulls no punches in showing what a genuinely horrific experience it is.]]

Added DiffLines:

* TalkToTheFist: In the EverybodyLives route, Hannah will do this to Luke as a GetAHoldOfYourselfMan if Zachary or Marianne don't have the highest level of affection for her. If one of does so, they're the one who punches him in the face.

Added DiffLines:

* YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe: If Ashton and Luke are the only survivors, Luke outright burns the Letter, ending the curse. Doing so gives the "Are You Shitting Me?!" achievement.

Trope has been disambiguated.


* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Averted for most characters who have very realistic hues, but in the cases that do fit the trope (pink for Rebecca, green for Rose Cooper, and blue for Kylie) nobody comments on it being unusual.

I Ate What clean up. The trope is when a character eats something, unaware of what they are consuming, and then reacts in disgust after they find out what it is. Misuse will be deleted or moved to another trope when applicable. Administrivia.Zero Context Examples will be removed or commented out depending on the amount of context within the entry.

* IAteWhat: One character can eat a "yummy" pie. [[spoiler:The possessed Hannah made the pie either from a cat or with human intestines.]]

"subverted" means that you think it's going to be the case, and then it turns out it's not. It's not when a trope's aversion is downplayed. Takako being from Japan is also telegraphed hard enough that it's clearly not under debate.


* TokenMinority: Despite the story using this as part of the narrative a few different times, the fact does remain that Zachary is the only named black character in the entire novel.
** Subverted with Ashton, who is (a bit surprisingly) the only Japanese protagonist in the story, but is joined by one of Marianne's colleagues and [[spoiler: potentially the ghost]] otherwise. It's subverted rather than ''averted'' because the former only gets one scene and the latter [[spoiler: is never actually confirmed to be Japanese, only implied.]]

While he is (a bit surprisingly) the only Japanese protagonist in the story, but it's heavily implied that [[spoiler:the ghost, or rather Takako the maid as she was in life,]] is joined by one of also from Japan. This is in addition to Marianne's colleagues and [[spoiler: potentially the ghost]] otherwise.

* NotSoDifferentRemark: Ash can acknowledge that Luke reminds him a lot of how he used to be and that it's only his relationship with Professor Andrew and friendships with Rebecca, Zach, and Isabella that steered him down a different path.

* FourPhilosophyEnsemble: The main four protagonists' roles in this are very clearly defined.

** The Conflicted: Zachary
* FourTemperamentEnsemble: Much like the above, all four members of the main group fit neatly into each category.
** Sanguine: Isabella
