History NightmareFuel / AHeistWithMarkiplier

** Ending 25 seems like a happy ending at first, with you and Mark being treated to actually delicious-looking food instead of the flesh and guts you could've sworn you saw. That is, until the narrator delivers this FridgeHorror-inducing line:
---> "You never did figure out where all that food was coming from, but at the end of the day, when it tastes this good, does it really matter? Does it?"\\
''(the hermit's [[LaughingMad laughter]] is heard)''

** The interesting thing about the last situation is that in the "Car" path, two silhouetted figures appear before you and Mark, and then disappear a second later, as seen [[https://youtu.be/hu60fNlVmF0?t=34 here]]. With the knowledge of what happens in ending 30, it becomes clear that those figures were you and Mark from that timeline, meaning [[FridgeHorror you and Mark nearly just ran yourselves over.]]

--->'''Mark''': ''(after escaping the zombies)'' '''''[[SincerityMode WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?!?]]'''''
* It's revealed in [[GoldenEnding Ending 6]] that the box you and Mark have stolen is an anomalous object in the space-time continuum, responsible for the aforementioned ZombieApocalypse and causing the timeline to split into the multiple different branching paths of the series. There's also the fact that when you first remove it from the podium, there are red, green and blue afterimages that flash for a second, implying that the box has ''some'' connection to [[WebVideo/WhoKilledMarkiplier the Manor curse]] and [[HumanoidAbomination Darkiplier]].

--> '''Sewer Cult''': We are evil, we will kill you.

* [[GreaterScopeVillain Darkiplier]] returns, and he's [[AxCrazy more unhinged than ever]]. His glitching reflects this; it's more intense than in ''A Date with Markiplier'', involving him splitting into multiple body doubles and giving off large demonic red afterimages, giving him an overall more broken appearance. His monologue doesn't help matters.

'''Darkiplier:''' So much trouble... all for something so small. Do you really want to know what's inside this box? The truth? Not the lies he's told you, but the truth? Well... I know how much you love a good game, so throughout this heist, [[ScavengerHunt I've hidden codes]], several codes. Find them all and you'll get your truth. But that's all I'm gonna give you.
** The scene before you meet Darkiplier isn't any less frightening; you split up from Mark, who inexplicably disappears, then you turn around to find yourself in a hallway containing pictures of [[WebVideo/WhoKilledMarkiplier Abe the Detective, Benjamin the Butler, Chef the Chef, and Colonel William]], all with crossed out eyes (and in William's case, a large pink mustache), implying that they're either dead, have gone insane like William, or have had something else bad happen to them. You walk through, hearing the ghostly whispers of each character as you pass by their picture, with an ominous text message appearing on your phone after each instance. This leads to you entering a dark room with Actor!Mark's picture, which peels away after his "I could be dead tomorrow!" quote, leading into Darkiplier's monologue.

* Ending 19. If you've read [[Manga/TheEnigmaOfAmigaraFault The Enigma of Amigara Fault]] then you're probably fully aware of what was going to happen as soon as you saw the person-shaped hole in the prison wall. If not... Well, let's just say said manga includes warnings of Claustrophobia and [[spoiler: BodyHorror]] for good reasons.

* [[TheManyDeathsOfYou There are a ''lot'' of ways that the protagonist and/or Mark can die depending on your choices]]: [[DisneyVillainDeath falling into a bottomless pit]], crushed by a [[ItCanThink sentient]] boulder, brainwashed by a cursed monkey statue, turned into and/or eaten by a zombie, shot InTheBack by TheMole, punched through a brick wall, eaten by a shark/crocodile/SandWorm, etc.

-->'''Darkiplier:''' Same snake, different skin. Always spinning his yarns, his webs, his ''lies''. I always thought you were trapped in his games, perpetually plunging down the rabbit hole of his stories. Helpless. Lost. '''I know the feeling.''' Perhaps ''I'm'' the crazy one. Perhaps we've met a hundred times already and you simply don't remember. Perhaps you're tired of me repeating myself over, and over, and over, and over, and over, '''[[SuddenlyShouting AND OVER AGAIN!]]''' Maybe you just miss my [[SlasherSmile pretty face.]] It doesn't matter.

* Ending 10 takes a dark turn in a seemingly happy ending. While you do enjoy your prison life, you have to resort to more crime to keep your sentence, namely ''killing other inmates.'' One of whom can be seen holding a FatalFamilyPhoto.
* The hermit on the island segment is strongly implied to be serving Mark and the player human meat.
** The Hermit tying Mark or the player to his "dining throne" and putting a bag over their head is terrifying, especially with how [[HorribleJudgeOfCharacter completely unconcerned]] Mark is.

[the hermit's [[LaughingMad laughter]] is heard]

** The buildup in "Walk to Base" is especially creepy, particularly with the unsettling music in the background. You and Mark are walking through a clearing when four helicopters fly overhead, followed by a flight of jets. Then you hear machine guns firing, and a missile [[JumpScare suddenly]] impacts nearby, knocking you both to the ground. And when you wake up, you turn to find a group of zombies ''right next to you''.

* The ZombieApocalypse is pretty much PlayedForDrama, which makes it all the more terryfying, not helped by the fact that the Player gets infected almost immediately. The zombie bite on the arm serves as a constant reminder of how little time the Player has left.

* [[BigBad Darkiplier]] returns, and he's even more unhinged than ever. His glitching reflects this; it's more intense than it was in ''A Date with Markiplier'', involving splitting into multiple body doubles, and large demonic red afterimages of himself appearing behind him, giving an overall more broken appearance to him.
