** Some of the more frightening videos happen in broad daylight. Special mention goes to "Unexpected growth", which starts out as Daisy talking about her plants until TheReveal that [[spoiler:Alan can now talk]], and "im outside", which features a heavily distressed Daisy having been chased outside by Alan, [[spoiler:[[OhCrap only to realize she didn't grab Strawberry]].]]

The quote from Daisy is actually a reasonable description of menstrual fluid, which is a little darker than regular blood and can have small jelly-like clumps in it (blood clots or tissue from the uterine lining). Compare the picture on the Wikipedia page for menstruation with image search results for jugs of pomegranate juice. Daisy probably has never seen more than a few drops of actual BLOOD blood at a time, and assumes her menstrual fluid is what blood looks like when there's a lot of it.

* NoPeriodsPeriod: The video “friendship braclet” has Daisy describe blood as looking like “pomegranate juice with jelloy chunks in it,” implying she’s never seen it before. Judging by her age, there’s no way she hasn’t menstruated yet, and should have been able to recognize blood just from that.

** In one video, Daisy is shown wearing a ''Literature/TheGreatGatsby'' t-shirt. Considering that one of the main characters is also named Daisy, it may also be suggesting a parallel between the troubled Daisy and Tom Buchanan relationship of the book and Daisy Brown's increasingly abusive relationship with Alan.

* ObviouslyNotFine: In one video, Daisy is sitting alone in her room talking to the audience. She's locked herself in there, implicitly hiding from her pet monster Alan. At one point, Alan starts screaming and crying outside, which prompts an immediate "It's fine" from Daisy, despite that she's clearly uncomfortable and upset about what's going on. This remains a theme in other videos as well, where she insists to the audience she's doing well when all evidence points to things being... [[DomesticAbuse not fine at all.]]
