** In Chapter 3, Part 5, Jacob talks about how [[spoiler:he actually hates video games due to his father pushing him to get good at them day and night. He did just about everything to keep his son awake, including injections and IVs of coffee or pure caffeine, a strict diet of high-caffeine foods, tasering him awake, and even taping his eyelids open after a particularly-bad night for Jacob. He wouldn't even let his son use the bathroom unless he beat a personal best. This caused Jacob to develop kidney stones the size of golf balls. After the surgery to remove them, he told the staff about what his dad was doing to him and he was arrested for child abuse.]]

* CruelAndUnusualDeath: As in practically every fan story in the franchise, the executions are rather twisted.

** The Chapter 1 killer, [[spoiler:Frank Norris the Ultimate Astral Projector, uses his talent in his execution to meet with the Buddhist Goddess of Mercy and Compassion; he begins to float on his own lotus heart to a place with no more suffering, only for the lotus heart to fall apart and drop him into Hell where he's tormented by demons who push him into the pit of fire.]] It's especially brutal as, just before the execution, [[spoiler:he states that his grandparents told him he was going to go to Hell because they believe that Astral Projection is part of the occult.]]

* DeathGame: As with practically every fan story in the franchise, the characters find themselves in a killing game.




* TookALevelInBadass: In a Chapter 3 flashback after [[spoiler:Jacob is found to be guilty of Ken and Thalia's murders. The typically-timid Ken finds out about Jacob's plan to murder Thalia and they tell Jacob they won't let him; he even ends up throwing a few punches at Jacob. Unfortunately he is still taken down]].
