Camp Redwood

  • How Mr. Jingles's first victims we see in the season die - having a pole shoved through one head and into another's mouth.

  • Mr. Jingles gruesomely cutting off the ears of his victims, to string them into a necklace as a trophy. Perhaps more horrifying is Margaret having to pretend to be dead and therefore stay absolutely still as he cuts her ear off. It's later revealed that Margaret was the original killer, she professes that she cut her own ear off to stage herself as a victim.

  • Richard Ramirez's appearance is this, knowing the horrific crimes he committed.

Mr. Jingles

  • Xavier's past, albeit of a more mundane type.

Slashdance

  • The fate of the real Rita. Kidnapped by an insane psychologist and held captive tied up in her own car trunk for at least a couple of days. Then the group finds her while looking for a place to hide from the deranged killer. She understandably becomes hysterical because of all she's endured, in the process running into Mr. Jingles. He chokes her to death on a pole.

True Killers

  • Xavier almost being roasted alive after Jingles traps him in the oven.

Red Dawn

  • Brooke, having survived until the morning, is attacked by Montana, and successfully kills her in self-defense, then witnessed by a school bus full of children who only saw her stabbing Montana repeatedly. When Margaret reappears and blames her for all the killings, Brooke is taken away, ending up in Maximum Security for five years, and then scheduled to be executed for her alleged crimes.
