* ''WesternAnimation/HeroInside'': The series revolves around superheroes, all made by the same creator who disappeared some time ago, somehow appearing in real life and are able to be commanded by those who are in possession of their comic books. Crosses over into MediumAwareness where the heroes all know that they're fictional characters and explain [[ClapYourHandsIfYouBelieve the mechanics of their books]].

Added DiffLines:

* ''Literature/UniversalMonsters'': A combination of lightning and a holographic projector releases characters from the six films. Each book features, respectively:
** Count Dracula (disguised as a normal human);
** Larry Talbot's wolf man (incarnated through Don Earl Abernathy after he's bitten by another Wolf Man), Bela the gypsy's wolf man (incarnated through [[spoiler: John Winokea and later Deputy Chad Barnes), and his mother Maleva (incarnated through Wilma Winokea)]];
** Herr Frankenstein, Fritz and the Creature they made;
** Imhotep (in his guise as Ardeth Bey) and Anck-Su-Namun;
** The Gill Man [[spoiler: and Dr. Mark Williams]];
** Book 6 features the Bride of Frankenstein (or rather, a new incarnation made from the corpse of Megan [=McMahan=]), Dr. Pretorius and his chief henchman Karl, along with Dr. Pretorius's tiny homunculi and a returned Herr Henry Frankenstein (with his ''Bride of Frankenstein'' personality)... plus the other returning monsters: Dracula, Deputy Chad Barnes (who starts turning into Larry Talbot's Wolf Man again before his mother stops him via a special dreamcatcher), the Frankenstein Monster, Ardeth Bey/Imhotep and the Gill Man. [[spoiler: The ending confirms that [[Film/TheInvisibleMan1933 the Invisible Man]] is also loose, while [[Film/PhantomOfTheOpera1943 the Phantom of the Opera]] was likely freed as well.]]

* ''WesternAnimation/DaffyDuckAndPorkyPigMeetTheGroovieGoolies'': This trope is invoked by the Groovie Goolies in [[BigLippedAlligatorMoment a memorable if freaky sequence]]. The bratty Hauntleroy has stolen Wolfie's guitar and flees into 'Mad Mirror Land', where all four characters (including Drac and Frankie) get turned into live-action versions, still operating by cartoon laws, for the most part. It was originally part of a seriously weird, not-so-hot crossover with the WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes, and then was re-edited for syndication as a separate episode.

General clarification on works content


** In the mini-campaign "Into the Idiot Box", the team [[TrappedInTVLand gets sucked into a TV dimension]] by a bored cosmic-powered child, Quirk. He forces them to act out his favourite shows in character, one of which is an 80s family sitcom akin to ''Series/{{Alf}}'', wherein the family features a [[MascotWithAttitude radical cartoon leopard]], Jaxxer, who came out of their TV and whom they have to keep a secret (essentially having him come from a show within a show within a show). One of the challenges to the players involves them trying to hide Jaxxer from outsiders or risk incurring Quirk's wrath for going off-script.
