History WesternAnimation / Bunnicula

* CatsAreMean: Averted with Chester. While he may be a grumpyBear and a JerkWithAHeartOfGold, he does care about his family and Mina.

* OffModel: A recurring error is whenever Chester and Harold are walking on all four, they are shown to have four-dot paw prints under their paws. However, when they tend to use them as hands, the dots on their paws dissappear, and for the most part, they switch from having paws to hands.

** Sugarbeet increases his hyperactivity.

** Peppers [[FireBreathingDiner give him fire breath]].

* TimeyWimeyBall: One mirror can send people back in time half an hour, repeatedly. As Chester finds out to his horror, this leads to a lot of paradoxes when he runs into his multiple past selves.

* SuddenlyVoiced[=/=]SpeakingSimlish: Unlike the mute original, this Bunnicula actually talks, but in [[IntelligibleUnintelligible a sort of garbled Latinesque language]] only [[GeniusDitz Harold]] seems to understand.

* {{Troll}}: Bunnicula in the episode "Garlicked" takes an awful long time to reveal to the others that he can come back from skeleton form after eating garlic, mostly to troll Chester, who fed him the garlic in the first place.

* MonsterOfTheWeek: Many of whom tend to be based on animals.

* NeverSmileAtACrocodile: The episode "Alligator Tears" features a crying alligator ghost whose tears instill sadness in everyone near her except for Bunnicula, who is immune to it for some reason. But the ghost is not malicious and is merely looking for her missing earring.
* NightmareFace: Bunnicula is prone to these. In the episode "Alligator Tears", Bunnicula is confronted by two raccoons after Chester accidentally rolls away with their trash can. Bunnicula's response? To peel back his skin and reveal his skull. They promptly run for it.
* NightmareFetishist: If it's creepy and weird, you can bet Mina loves it.

The show is a dark comedy about a vampire rabbit who likes carrot juice instead of blood, a cat who tries to rationalize everything, and a dog who just goes with the flow.

* HiddenDepths: Despite being afraid of the supernatural and horror in general, Chester loves science fiction.

* HeterosexualLifePartners: Harold and Chester are shown to be this in ''Alligator Tears''.

* ThoseTwoGuys: Bunnicula and Harold are the Spongebob and Patrick to Chester's Squidward.

* WeirdnessMagnet: Chester accuses Bunnicula of being this in the first episode, and the plot is caused by him locking Bunnicula in his tomb in hopes that the monsters would go away... Only to accidentally summon a mummy monkey when he steals Mina's key. This implies that it is actually Mina who is the Magnet, but she just doesn't notice.

* TheChosenOne: Mina seems to be this, as when Chester steals her key it awakens a Monkey Mummy who only goes back to sleep after the key is returned to her.ish

* OffModel: A recurring error is whenever Chester and Harold are walking on all four, they are shown to have four-dot paw prints under they're paws. However, when they tend to use them as hands, the dots on they're paws dissappear, and for the most part, they switch from having paws to hands.

* OcularGushers: Onions have this effect on Bunnicula.

* AdaptationDistillation: Lots to go around, such as the fact that Bunnicula is a real vampire bunny whose ears can transform into bat wings (whereas in the books his vampiric nature is only vaguely implied), but as so far only the first episode has aired, whether it's a bad thing remains to be seen.
