History NightmareFuel / WhoKilledMarkiplier

* Take a moment to think about what Damien had to go though before The Actor intervened; he was stuck in a TimeLoop, constantly sent out to cut down trees in a cold, wintry nowhere and bring them back to the cabin for him and Celine. He's stuck reliving the same day, with no real knowledge that he's doing so until the aforementioned intervention, and judging by the sheer number of tree stumps we see at the end of the video, he's been doing this for ''[[TimeAbyss a long time]].''

Just keep in mind that this web series is made by LetsPlay/{{Markiplier}}, and, considering his track record, it's safe to say that there will be frightening moments throughout the story.

* Mark (now simply called The Actor) was only present for a few scenes in Who Killed Markiplier?, so we only heard of what type of person he was through what other characters had to say about him. Here though, we get to see him alive and well, and he is far, ''far'' worse than what everybody has described him to be like. He's a FauxAffablyEvil {{Narcissist}} who believes that what he did to all the party guests was justified under the idea that "mistakes were made", and is overall callous and uncaring towards them and how they've suffered because of it, opting to say that it's all in the past and that the main focus should be on moving forward.
** If that wasn't bad enough, then [[https://youtu.be/Q14pVTr1SxQ?t=722 his]] [[https://youtu.be/Q14pVTr1SxQ?t=772 facial]] [[https://youtu.be/Q14pVTr1SxQ?t=849 expressions]] take the cake. Many commenters pointed out that a lot of his smiles especially seem to take cues from ComicBook/TheJoker. Hell, his whole demeanor gives off a very Jokeresque vibe.

* While also doubling as a TearJerker, the ending of "Who Killed Markiplier?" has some pretty horrific implications. According to Celine the Seer and Damien the Mayor, Mark, for unknown reasons, killed himself and then used magic to kill Damien and Celine and take the former's body, allegedly in an act of vengeance. After killing the Detective and then accidentally shooting the FeaturelessProtagonist, the Colonel goes insane and becomes convinced that death is nothing more than a joke and that everyone will come back at some point down the line. Many fans have interpreted this as him turning into Wilford Warfstache, which would explain why he kills so recklessly and nonchalantly. Meanwhile, Celine merges Damien's and the protagonist's souls with hers, the end result being Darkiplier, who then goes to get revenge on Mark. [[WhamEpisode JESUS CHRIST]].
* Just the nature of Markiplier Manor in general; within it exists an Evil Entity [[TheCorrupter that's capable of corrupting whoever enters into thinking that their actions, no matter how heinous, are in the right.]] It manipulated Mark into killing himself and possessing Damien's body to get revenge on Celine and the Colonel so it could use Damien, Celine and the [[FeaturelessProtagonist District Attorney]] in order to escape its prison, and the scariest thing about it is that [[TheBadGuyWins it actually succeeds in its goal]].

-->'''Celine''': Get out! We are not done here!
-->'''Damien''': Celine, I think this is quite enough.
-->'''Celine''': It's enough when I SAY it's enough!

* Combined with TearJerker; Abe's {{Curse}}. Anyone who partners up with him is destined for a tragic death. While this is frightening for anyone who partners up with him, imagine how it affects Abe. He has to live with the fact that every one of his partners died on his watch, and he couldn't do anything about it.
