* DrivenToSuicide: "The Tenants". Ben Vedere's wife, Amelia, hanged herself in the basement of their house after years of being physically and sexually assaulted by him.

Added DiffLines:

* DonutMessWithACop: In "Trumbull County UFO", some police officers working a night shift meet at a donut shop for an informal briefing. Both officers interviewed for the episode describe this as very cliché, but Officer Meloro points out that nothing else in the area is open at that hour.

* SupernaturalProofFather: Interesting variation with the husband in "The Tenants". He starts experimenting phenomena long after his wife and thinks that the HollywoodExorcism is nonsense, but is "converted" after he hears what he thinks is Ben Vedere beating his wife. However, he refuses to be scared by the ghosts afterwards. When (whom he assumes is) Ben tries to open a door, the husband ties the handle so it can remain in place, and calls the ghost weak and a pervert.

* BreatherEpisode: "Ghost in the Garden". It's only a little girl ghost and nothing overly freaky happens. Even at the end the owners of the house have come to tolerate and even appreciate the spirit's presence.

* BreatherEpisode: "Ghost in the Garden". It's only a little girl ghost and nothing overly freaky happens. Even at the end the owners of the house have come to tolerate and even appreciate the spirit's presence. They also suspect that the ghost is a deceased member of their family and that she appears as a child because her childhood was the happiest time of her life, and this is a comforting idea for them.


Added DiffLines:

* ItsProbablyNothing: Many of the characters dismiss signs of paranormal activity this way at first, thinking they're just imagining things, or they're overly tired, or they're not used to the noises that their new house makes, or that a creepy occurrence at night is just a bad dream.
