* DyingClue: A scrambled message by a previous kidnapping victim is left behind inside the room that Ellie stays in, where making it legible to read reveals that [[spoiler: Ellie's claims that she was kidnapped by a man is a lie. It was a girl, or more specifically, [[EvilAllAlong the girl that the player have been trying to rescue]].]]

[[spoiler: It's because her kidnapping victim, the real Ellie, is hidden underneath the camera the player is using, and she doesn't want the player to see her with the mirror's reflection]].

Added DiffLines:

* VillainBall: [[spoiler: 'Ellie' slips up early on that a man had abducted her, while a dying message in the room she is trapped in mentions "She is the devil disguised as a girl", which contradicts what 'Ellie' claims. Had she mentioned that a girl had abducted her, 'Ellie' would have an easier time selling her story to her would-be rescuer by claiming that she tied up the kidnapper while she was unconscious, instead of hiding her victim from out of sight]].
* WhamLine: The last line from dying message left behind by a previous kidnapping victim reads: [[spoiler: "She is the devil disguised as a girl"]].
* WhamShot: Once the player persuades an unusually agitated Ellie to hold a mirror above the star marked on the floor to get a view of what is underneath the camera, you can see [[spoiler: a girl tied up on the floor in the reflection. The real Ellie Foster]].
