  • Dummied Out: A creature from the tech demo, known as "The Hunter", didn't appear in the series but is implied to be what Overseer Frisk became while in the Kennel. Necrologue brings it back as a functional enemy, and it is terrifying.
  • The Other Darrin: Philip has a vastly different voice actor in the English version of Overture and Black Plague. All the more strange, since the rest of the voice cast remains the same throughout the series.
    • Overture had a tiny, yet effective voice cast of two people. The Overture incarnation of Philip (though uncredited) was voiced by Tom Jubert, the script writer of the series (since Frictional had little budget to create Overture and could afford a larger voice cast only after the game achieved success). Many fans consider Overture's Philip to be the canon version, since he at least sounds like an Englishman in his 20s or 30s, unlike the suddenly American-accented, older-sounding Philip from Black Plague.
