Bumping this.
The trope name does look like a too-clever tail trying to wag the dog. I'm leaning somewhat toward a cut.

Terminate with extreme prejudice.
How sweet it is
Yeah, this trope's definitely rotten. Cut.

I expected this to be a hidden secret which would have a negative effect on the way you continued to play game.
But nope, chop chop!
Hi
Crack it, cook it, feed it to the dog.
Throw it out.
You've got roaming bands of armed, aggressive, tyrannical plumbers coming to your door, saying "Use our service, or else!"
It's stinks. Trash it.
Reality is that, which when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away. -Philip K. Dick
Off to the dump.
No, the other one.
I don't think this is different from a regular Easter Egg in any significant way. Just move the examples there (if they're not already there) and cut this one.
Check out my fanfiction!
The way I see it, it's Easter Egg but played for horror.
Now, I'm not sure if that merits its own page. I'm relatively new so I don't know how it works here, but... do we really have tropes that play like that? "X played for funny", "X played for sadness" or things like that?
We don't need justice when we can forgive. We don't need tolerance when we can love.
Played for Laughs and Played for Drama is usually not considered a meaningful distinction. See The Same, but More Specific and Tropes Are Flexible.

Looks like we can call this one. Time to dewick this so we can cut this one.

Dewick complete.

Okay, cutting and closing. Note placed in discussion.

Going to keep this short because there's not much to say. It's basically a The Same But More Specific version Easter Egg where the Easter Egg is supposed to be scary or something.
While the trope is a recent YKTTW launch, it appears to have gotten a sufficient hat count, so I don't think taking it to the YKTTW Crash Rescue Thread is really appropriate.

If a tree falls in the forest and nobody remembers it, who else will you have ice cream with?
