* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: Whether you side with either Charlie or Paul is all dependent on how you interpret them. Both of them have their own issues, but neither can be defined as wholly good or wholly evil.
* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: '''All''' of it, especially the tracks by the eponymous PunkRock band.
** The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yxfflNxpZGk music for the character select screen and first flashback]] deserves special mention.
** The songs used in the good and bad endings, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pczo3oWC5e8 While the Living Warm Their Bones]]" and "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9jw61_z3XM Faces That I Understand]]" respectively, are also really good in their own rights.
* GoodBadBugs: There's a glitch where you can get two of [[spoiler:Smockula's pieces]] within the same boss fight. This is perfect for giving one to a friend so they could achieve the good ending.
* SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments: The good ending in spades. From [[spoiler:Charlie and Kelly getting married]] to [[spoiler:Charlie and Paul finally making amends for their wrongdoings]].
* NightmareFuel:
** The Twin Scenelords. They are slender, grotesque [[EldritchAbomination monstrosities]] that will [[FeedItWithFire ABSORB YOUR ATTACKS]] if you don't hit the right one at the right time. Their music, not officially released on the soundtrack, is also creepy on its own. A phonograph playing a scratchy record player.
** [[MushroomSamba The Camp Falconbats level]]. Your character(s) start tripping on acid and have infinite chainsaws and shotguns. Sounds cool, right? Then you enter an insane asylum that looks seemingly empty, before [[JumpScare some of the Lady in Tatters' dolls drop down screaming at you]]. And at the end of the level, it is revealed that you have been ''killing hippies'' the entire time, rather messily. The lone survivor tries to run away from you, until he trips and is impaled through the head by a log protruding from the ground.
* PlayerPunch: The "Bad Ending" as described below, which plays after [[spoiler:you kill Lord Mortimer]].
* TearJerker: The "Bad Ending" credits. [[spoiler:Showing Charlie and Paul growing up as best friends since babyhood. Then it's just Paul. And finally, an empty couch.]] The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G9jw61_z3XM song]] doesn't help.
