| 1 | A fan of the ''WesternAnimation/HeyArnold'' series, during a spout of nostalgia, discovers a lost episode of the series which was seemingly a draft of the episode "On the Lam", only he discovers that something more sinister is behind it. The story can be read [[https://spinpasta.wikia.com/wiki/Hey_Arnold:_The_Furnace here]]. |
| 2 | |
| 3 | !!The Furnace provides examples of: |
| 4 | * AdultsAreUseless: Grandpa Phil at first believed that Arnold was playing a game with Harold and Sid, failing to realize that his grandson was in grave danger. |
| 5 | * DarkFic: Blatantly so. |
| 6 | * DownerEnding: Grandpa Phil ambiguously discovers Arnold's mutilated remains in the eponymous furnace. |
| 7 | * DrivenToSuicide: Sid commits suicide out of guilt for taking part in the murder of his two friends, and Harold himself also kills himself after realizing too late that it was all a misunderstanding. |
| 8 | * FamilyUnfriendlyDeath: As per usual for a {{Creepypasta}}. Stinky's head is repeatedly bashed in with a rock, Arnold is torn to pieces by Harold and Sid and his body parts disposed of in the furnace, Sid stabs himself out of remorse, Harold hangs himself, etc. |
| 9 | * GoryDiscretionShot: The story leaves the exact way that Arnold is killed out, just going into the aftermath of it. |
| 10 | * HeKnowsTooMuch: Arnold is killed after Sid revealed that they murdered Stinky. |
| 11 | * TheHeroDies: Arnold is killed by Harold and Sid as a means of covering their tracks. |
| 12 | * LackOfEmpathy: At first, Harold was apathetic towards committing murder if it meant escaping from the consequences, but this changes towards the end. |
| 13 | * MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Harold and Sid both commit suicide after murdering their two friends. |
| 14 | * OhCrap: Arnold has this realization prior to being killed. |
| 15 | * PoorCommunicationKills: Arnold and Stinky die shamefully because of a mistranslation on the building being scheduled for demolition. |
| 16 | * RealAfterAll: Implied by the ending, in which the reader discovers a version of "On the Lam" with part of the scene of Arnold shrieking in terror about to be killed left in, suggesting the video he watched was a real episode later cut-down instead of just a knockoff. |
| 17 | * TroublingUnchildlikeBehavior: Harold is quick to suggest murdering Stinky and Arnold in order to avoid punishment. |
| 18 | * YourHeadAsplode: Stinky's head is destroyed by Sid continuously bashing his face in with a rock. |
