!!Tropes:
* AuthorAppeal: The film's visual style is based on the works of Creator/TimBurton - of whom Sefora Castro is a fan. See ShoutOut below.
* BoyMeetsGhoul: He does indeed.
* TheBully: Jack and Lucille are threatened by a gang of bullies.
* CoolTeacher: Jack's science teacher congratulates him on doing well.
* CuteMonsterGirl: Lucille is a little odd-looking but still very attractive.
* DeadAllAlong: [[spoiler: Lucille]] is a ghost.
* DerelictGraveyard: The climax takes place in one.
* DoubleMeaningTitle: 'Deadly' is an Irish slang term also meaning 'cool' or 'fun'. It also refers to danger.
* EeriePaleSkinnedBrunette: Inverted. Jack is pale with dark hair and is the normal one of the film.
* ForHalloweenIAmGoingAsMyself: It's implied anyway. Jack compliments Lucille on her make-up.
* FreezeFrameBonus: Lucille claims Mr Porter taught her mother Helena. [[spoiler: In the newspaper article at the end, you can see a mention of a ''sister'' called Helena]].
* GameFace: We don't see exactly what Lucille shows the bullies, but they all look terrified.
* HalloweenEpisode: Intended as such for the ''No [=WiFi=]'' catalogue, and their first film to be set on Halloween (aside from a brief Halloween party in ''Film/HighAndTight''). It premiered on [=YouTube=] on Halloween 2019 along with ''An Dearg Doom'' and ''Film/{{Scrios}}'' - out of the three, it was the only one to be actually set on Halloween.
* MayflyDecemberRomance: [[spoiler: Jack went on a date with a ghost]].
* NotLikeOtherGirls: Gender flipped. Jack prefers "coffee and croissants" as opposed to "beer and chips", likes science and prefers hanging with friends to loud parties.
* OurGhostsAreDifferent: [[spoiler: Lucille is corporeal and seemingly only able to come out on Halloween. She also can apparently remove parts of her flesh to scare people]].
* ShoutOut:
** A boy called Jack, wearing [[WesternAnimation/TheNightmareBeforeChristmas a skeleton costume]].
** Lucille is dressed rather like the WesternAnimation/CorpseBride.
* ShrinkingViolet: Jack doesn't seem to enjoy parties or socialising.
* TitleDrop: The last line of the film is Jack saying his night was "deadly".
* UptightLovesWild: Downplayed. Jack is quite withdrawn, while Lucille is more open.
* WhamShot: Lucille has Jack take her home. [[spoiler: Said home is a cemetery]].
