* BalefulPolymorph: While Chucky [[SubvertedTrope put himself in the doll to begin with and is especially dangerous in that form]] (as he can hide pretty much anywhere and almost no one is suspicious of a toy) he laments being stuck in "this goddamned body" and spends most of the series trying to BodySurf into a human. And in ''Bride of Chucky,'' Tiffany tickles him and locks him in a playpen. Ultimately subverted altogether when Chucky realizes that he's more infamous as a doll than he ever was as a human (see BadassBoast above).

** Chucky inevitably comes back to life every time he dies. Meanwhile, no one believes Andy and some even suspect him in some of the murders. At the end of the third movie, it's implied that he will face life in prison or death.

The second film does not feature Karen Barclay, though the character survived the previous film. But her story about a killer doll resulted in her being taken away for "psychological evaluation". The 8-year-old Andy has been placed in the [[FosterKid Foster Care System]]. He is placed in the care of Phil and Joanne Simpson (Gerrit Graham and Jenny Agutter). But Charles Lee Ray's doll host has been rebuilt and reanimated and he is still obsessed with the boy. He soon locates Andy and the incidents start again. Unfortunately the Simpsons suspect fostered teen Kyle (Christine Elise) as the culprit. Now Andy and Kyle have to face the killer with no outside help.

* AllThereIsToKnowAboutTheCryingGame: The Good Guy Doll being alive was supposed to be a TwistEnding in the first film... wouldn't you know? The original poster of the first film just showed a woman crashing through a window out of a building (the first murder victim of Chucky in the film) and giant evil eyes in the stormy sky.
