* NightmareFace: Several. One is even used as the film's other poster.

* BodyHorror: Human bones ''really'' shouldn't make sounds like [[spoiler: Monica's do as she moves.]]
* CameBackStrong: [[spoiler: The Paymon cultists that had killed themselves exactly one year prior to the events of the movie, if it lands on the more magical end of the spectrum]].
* ChekhovsGun: [[spoiler: The cleaning crew arriving at roughly 4 AM, along with Sgt. Cohen coming in to relieve Jessica]], which viewers could easily forget by the time it happens.

* CrazyHomelessPeople: Jessica has to deal with a rather persistent one of these that somehow managed to get into her station. [[spoiler: He's still pretty persistent after he's died.]]
* CreepyChildrenSinging: Well, teenagers to be precise.[[spoiler: Jessica joins in on the singing as she dies.]]

* DeadPersonImpersonation: Regardless of who or what Jessica was talking to on her phone, it seems pretty safe to say that it wasn't actually[[spoiler: her father.]]

* FingerGun: Officer Price[[spoiler: uses one of these to mimic the headshot that killed him, complete with gore splatter.]]

* HopeSpot: Just when things are really going wrong, Jessica is visited by a kind and sympathetic cop who seems to know something is wrong with the precinct building and who looks like he will look out for her.

* ShootTheShaggyDog: Jessica spends the night trying to overcome the ghosts [[spoiler: only to get shot by Sgt. Cohen after being tricked into killing the hazmat crew and then being taken by the Paymon family as she dies.]]

* ThroughTheEyesOfMadness: [[spoiler: In the film's final moments, a shootout with members of the Paymon family is revealed to have in fact been Jessica mercilessly gunning down the very cleanup crew she was waiting for, casting doubt on all of the supernatural occurrences Jessica had experienced throughout the night. It's worth noting that both the shootout and the worst of her supernatural experiences occur after she's sustained a rather nasty blow to the head.]]

On the anniversary of her police officer father's death at the hands of a psychotic cult, rookie cop Jessica Loren is about to start her first night on the job, despite her mother's protests. Her job is simple, really: it's the old police station's last shift, and she just has to keep watch until the hazmat crew comes and picks up the leftover evidence. What could possibly go wrong?

-->'''John Michael''': Devil's been around long before that clipped-winged cock-sucker got down there. Who do you think was there before him?

** Aside from that, a number of viewers found the most interesting character to be the homeless guy that kept breaking into the station. Why was he there? Why was he intent on perusing the papers in the evidence lockers?

* ChekhovsGun: [[spoiler: The cleaning crew arriving at roughly 4 AM, along with Sgt. Cohen coming in to relieve Jessica]].
