11	!!This comic includes examples of the following tropes:
12
13	* CharacterTitle: Both Mr. Crypt and the Baron Rat SpinOff
14	* DemBones: Mr. Crypt
15	* GagSeries: Focuses exclusively on humor with a skeleton in a PaperThinDisguise getting into wacky hijinks.
16	* HawaiianShirtedTourist: Mr. Crypt becomes this in the third issue when he heads to a tropical island for a vacation.
17	* HollywoodNatives: A comedic example - Mr. Crypt and explorer Bartholomew Candlewax encounter them on a tropical island in the third issue.
18	* HorrorComedy: The comic's genre; definitely a comedy-dominant variety.
19	* NonHumanSidekick: Baron Rat, Mr. Crypt's friend
20	* OurVampiresAreDifferent: Zigzagged with Sofia and Ivan, the vampires Godfrey hunts. Mr. Crypt destroys Sofia by shattering a ring on her finger, leading to her body disintegrating. Ivan gets destroyed by garlic, a standard vampire weakness, when Mr. Crypt hurls it into the vampire's mouth.
21	* PaperThinDisguise: Mr. Crypt wears a hat, fake moustache and coat when out in town.
22	* StockAnimalDiet: Played straight when Mr. Crypt buys Baron Rat a hunk of cheese to eat
23	* TorchesAndPitchforks: Another trope played straight as Mr. Crypt frequently finds himself chased by angry villagers wielding these along with weapons like knives, axes, etc.
24	* VampireHunter: Godfrey, who shows up in the second issue, is one of these. Mr. Crypt claims to be one too upon meeting Godfrey and joins forces with him.
