Now, Elsa was a [[ItsAllAboutMe selfish]] [[SmallNameBigEgo would-be starlet]] who used people in her own desperate quest for fame, so why does she get such a pleasant afterlife? Simple--because [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold deep down]], Elsa really ''did'' care about the "freaks" she took into her show. Unlike Dandy, who viewed freaks as toys to play with, or Stanley, who was only interested in their bodies (to the point of murdering and mummifying them), Elsa did create a "home"-like environment for the people she signed to her show. It's an odd inversion of "ends justifying the means": Elsa's ''intentions'' to use the freaks to bolster her own ego and stardom were self-centered, but the ''way she did it'' was kind, generous, and loving. That's why the freaks' personal Heaven is being together again in Elsa's tent: she made them feel like a family of respected human beings for the first time in their lives.

*There's no indication that the Freaks actually reported Twisty to the police, or even spread rumors beyond their own campfire. Twisty may very well have just convinced himself that they did.
