* OurZombiesAreDifferent: Gwen is different from the usual zombies in that she retains her personality and looks (if not a little pale). She still does have the hunger for brains and has to eat some every so often, though only eats those of the recently deceased (gaining their memories in the process). If she doesn't do so, however, she will turn into a typical zombie.

* MyBelovedSmother: Inverted. It was Ellie's mother who believed she needed more freedom, while her father wanted her to stay close to home. The reasoning behind this was that Ellie was her father's "life". He was a shellshocked World War II veteran who basically only came to life whenever Ellie was nearby. He never allowed her to join school clubs or activities, never allowed her to trick-or-treat, and it took two years after graduation for Ellie to apply to college.

The iZombie mythology classifies supernatural creatures using the Egyptian concept of an oversoul (memories, rational thought) and an undersoul (passion, animalistic). Central character [[MrExposition John Amon]] lays it out thusly:
* Ghosts: A roaming oversoul.
* Poltergeists: A roaming undersoul.
* Zombies: A revived body with only an oversoul, with little emotion or drive.
* Vampires: A revived body with only an undersoul, with an animal hunger for blood.
* Revenants: A revived body with both undersoul and oversoul intact (but requiring human flesh to sustain itself).
* Werewolves: A person sharing their body with an animal undersoul.
* Possessed: A person sharing their body with (or controlled by) a human oversoul.

!!!This character provides examples of:

* KnightTemplar: The Fossor Corporation drifts into this trope with its methodology and approach to hunting monsters.
* OurWerewolvesAreDifferent: Gwen's nerd friend, Scott, was bitten by a terrier, and transforms on a full moon, but has no significant personality change or bloodlust during the transformation.
