6!!Tropes appearing in this fic
7* AntiHero: Rainbow Dash calls herself one.
8* AssShove: After [[spoiler: Eclipse]] ruins Rarity's mane, she uses her magic to shove a lightning bolt up his ass.
9* BerserkButton: For all that is good and holy, do ''not'' ruin Rarity's mane. On a more serious note, Applejack's button seems to be Apple Bloom getting hurt. Spike's attack on [[spoiler: Punch]] also shows that he takes threats against [[spoiler: Twilight]] ''very'' seriously.
10* BreakingTheFourthWall: Every so often, the narrator addresses the reader.
11* EpicFail: Every single attempt Eclipse makes to hit on Twilight.
12* ExpectingSomeoneTaller: Pinkie says this to a [[spoiler: newly ressurected Dracalion. He ''is'' tall, but he was possessing Apple Bloom at that point.]]
13* GirlOnGirlIsHot: While [[spoiler: Punch is holding Twilight hostage]], he demands that Pinkie and Rarity make out.
14* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Spike gets really vicious when [[spoiler: Punch attempts to bite Twilight. The mane six are shaken by how violently Spike dealt with him.]]
15* ParodySue: Eclipse. He acts as if he can have any filly he wants, but he gets shot down every time and makes a fool of himself all the time.
16* PostKissCatatonia: Spike has a brief one, before snapping out of it and giving Twilight a WhatTheHellHero exclamation.
17* SadisticChoice: Rainbow Dash does one to Eclipse: [[spoiler: release her friends, or Dash will hurt Sulky. She throws Sulky out the window before Eclipse could decide.]]
18* ShoutOut: LOTS.
19** The villains are all based on well known characters from Vampire based pop culture. Dracalion is obviously Count {{Dracula}}, Punch Spike and Fallen Angel are based on Spike and Angel from Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer, and Twilight Eclipse and Sulky Swan are a spoof of Edward and Bella from ''Literature/TheTwilightSaga''.
20** The story itself is a humourous take on ''Franchise/{{Castlevania}}'', especially with the chapter titles. Pinkie even breaks open a wall to get some doughnuts out.
21** The behaviour of the drunken pony Beer Belly is similar to that of [[WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons Homer Simpson]] in the crossover episode with Series/TheXFiles.
22** There's also a book called [[LadyChatterleysLover Filly Chatterly's Lover]].
23** When Twilight's horn glows [[spoiler: to call Spike for help, when Punch is holding her hostage]], the rhythm of the glows is [[Series/MightyMorphinPowerRangers the tune the Green Ranger plays to summon the Dragonzord]].
24** Some of the names the Mane Six think up, when trying to decide on a Super Hero Team Name: [[Franchise/SuperSentai Chibi Sentai Umaranger/Little Taskforce Horse Rangers]], [[Series/PowerRangersMysticForce Power Rangers Mystic Horse]], [[Literature/TheLordOfTheRings The Fellowship/Fillyship Of The Horseshoe]], [[Franchise/XMen The H-Ponies]]...
25** "Pinkie, [[Series/RedDwarf I know we all have something to bring to this discussion, but from now on, I think the thing you should bring, is silence.]]"
26** Rarity's reaction to Eclipse burning her hair is straight [[Film/{{Spaceballs}} Princess Vespa.]]
27* TerribleTrio: Eclipse, Fallen and Punch.
28* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: Pinkie gives one to Sulky.
