History WebVideo / StanFrederick

* BeardOfSorrow: Stan in "Just Another Monster". Eventually forms into a BadassBeard in the second season.

* RealityEnsues: Fighting monsters ''would'' probably require a boatload of research and result in a ''lot'' of stress if it were a one-man operation.
** Later in Season 2, [[spoiler: Connor claims to have a new group of "collectors" at his disposal, but Oscar reveals that he's the only one doing Connor's work.]] Recruiting people isn't easy if you don't really have a physical form, after all.
** Pushing back a case because you think it's not worth your time may result in an absence of important information and [[spoiler: may lead to the death of innocent people.]]

** "52. Pit Stop" sees the return of none other than Vincent from WebVideo/EverymanHYBRID, whom Evan meets with before the events of 2018 in an attempt to find HABIT. Although Vinny is unable to help Evan locate HABIT, he does ask Evan to take him wherever they're going out of an attempt to escape him. Unfortunately, Evan can't comply with this due to both being dead, and in the past.

* InfantImmortality: [[spoiler: Averted with Willow.]]

** At the beginning of "Indebted", Stan places his camera on top of a box in such a way that replicates the numerous "object POV shots" in Series/BreakingBad. Soon afterwards, Stan tries to call [[WebVideo/WhisperedFaith Lee]], but gets no answer. Then Susan suggests calling up someone who is implied to be [[WebVideo/EverymanHYBRID HABIT]] to get more information about the Rake, but Stan shoots her down, [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments saying that they're not]] ''[[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments that]]'' [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments desperate]].

* [[BeardOfSorrow Whiskers of Sorrow]]: Stan in "Just Another Monster". Eventually forms into a BadassBeard in the second season.

* TwentyMinutesIntoThePast: Season 3, which premiered in 2020, mostly takes place during 2018.

*** [[spoiler: As of 2020, the person who gave the secret of interdimensional travel/the Traveller's Call to Stan appears to have been canonly retconned to be none other than Joshua Kingsley, the rival monster hunter from the Slenderverse series [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyoBlyQx_7B2pSI3mnR13iQ "Recollect". We learn more about how it works in that series.]]

* AmbiguousEnding: For every season so far. Justified, as the creator wants to leave room open for future seasons, but he won't go through with anything unless he finds a story worth telling

** At one point, Stan and TEACHER travel to the Yeti dimension, which establishes the concept of a person having a clone with no eyes who dies with them when they die. The final shot of the third season ([[GrandFinale and possibly the series]]) is [[spoiler: Susan's Yeti clone.]]

** The last shot of "59. Reaching Someone" is [[spoiler: Susan's Yeti clone, filming everything from her POV, meaning that [[BackFromTheDead Stan's plan worked.]]

Stan does too, but it [[BackFromTheDead doesn't]] [[CameBackWrong take.]]]] Season 3's death toll includes [[spoiler: Susan, Willow, and Dominic.]]

** "Good Times" opens with Susan's first person POV, but she curiously has Stan's hands. [[spoiler: "Video Update" reveals that he's been possessing her for an indeterminate amount of time between Seasons 2 and 3.]]

-> ''EVAN hitsrockbottom''

* ICannotSelfTerminate: [[spoiler: Evan]] faces this problem in "To Die", as he tries to jump off a building but finds himself teleported to the roof before he hits the ground. It's eventually revealed that [[spoiler; TEACHER]] is the one that's stopping him.
