5	----
6	* Most of the deaths are horrifying (if you don't find their execution {{narm}}y), but special mention goes to Jess, who gets a hair straightener ''burning in her throat''. Helped in no way by Laura making it into a [[KickTheDog hate meme]] so we get a lingering look at Jess's dead face.
7	** Val's death is the least gruesome, but is no less unsettling. After attempting to call the police, her feed goes out and reappears with what ''looks'' like a still image of her in the laundry room, ''but her cellphone is still ringing and vibrating on-screen.'' After a moment, a loud banging noise is suddenly heard, and then the camera immediately falls, only showing her feet. The police arrives and rules that she's dead. After hearing the police codes over the radio, Blaire realizes she has a disorder that gives her seizures. The police had cut the feed off before the rest of the cast could find out what's going on. NothingIsScarier indeed. There's a bottle of bleach at her elbow. Going by this and scenes in early trailers, the implication could be that she drank bleach.
8	** There's also Ken having his hand shoved into a blender, then cutting his throat with said blender after breaking his hand free. There's something spectacularly creepy about Ken repeatedly slamming his head against his computer while screaming. [[NothingIsScarier What did he see, hear, or experience that made him do that?]]
9	** You can hear him say "FUCK YOU" while this was happening, implying that he was trying to fight Laura's possession and ''failed''.
10	** Right before Ken [[{{Fingore}} "logs]] [[SlashedThroat off"]], his Skype Image shows what appears to be a [[NothingIsScarier creepy face staring right at him.]]
11	** The entire build-up and reveal that precedes Adam's death. Fed up with her twisted game of "Never have I ever", Adam threatens Laura with his gun. In response, Laura sends two printout notes to Adam and then Blaire with their printers, and they're both too terrified to reveal the notes to the others. Mitch, still enraged over Blaire's and Adam's affair, demands that Blaire to show them all the picture against her ''and'' Adam's protests and threatens to walk out, not caring that Laura will kill him if he does. In a panic, Blaire reveals the letter; "If you reveal this note, Adam will die". [[BoomHeadshot Immediately followed by Adam shooting himself in the face with his own gun.]]
12	** Mitch headbutts a knife through his eye after Blaire rats him out to Laura. What's terrifying is not only the death but Blaire's willingness to rat him out to save her own skin.
13	* Adam calling the police, only to hear what sounds like Laura's eerily monotonous voice.
14	--> '''Laura:''' '''Don't hang up'''\
15	'''Adam:''' What?\
16	'''Blaire:''' What just happened?\
17	'''Laura:''' '''I said. Don't hang up'''
18	* Following Ken's death, [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere a terrified Adam tries to leave the line.]] Then he hears knocking sounds from somewhere in his house, he [[NothingIsScarier gets increasingly unsettled by the sheer lack of presumable-presence]], followed with an ominous tune playing and his lights shutting off. Then Laura messages him this:
19	-->'''Laura:''' adam, sit down and shut up
20	* It's brief, but one of the people Blaire comes across on Chatroulette is sitting in a dark room with his face slightly illuminated. He's watching something offscreen and only his eyes move briefly to look at Blaire when she's calling for help. Brief but pretty creepy and unsettling.
21	* The ending. After Blaire is revealed to be the one who shot the embarrassing Laura Barns video, she can only stare shocked when her door creaks open. Then, what seems to be Ghost!Laura shuts Blaire's laptop and then presumably kills her.
22	* On Laura Barns's memorial page on [[https://www.facebook.com/RIPLauraBarnes Facebook]], look a little closer to picture of Laura. Next to her is a demonic face [[TheFourthWallWillNotProtectYou staring right at you.]]
23	** [[https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/556254414559014915/a8T0tYzV_400x400.jpeg And this picture reveals]] that it's actually Blaire's face! Subtle foreshadowing of Blaire's [[VillainProtagonist true nature]], perhaps? Her grin is certainly more sinister looking compared to Laura's.
24	** That same demonic face is behind Adam to the right when [[{{Poltergeist}} billie227]] is making them play the Never Have I Ever game, right after she turns the lights back on in Adam's house.
25	* Near the end where Blaire and Mitch is still forced to play the 'Never Have I Ever' game and is being forced to reveal who is responsible for posting Laura's humiliating video online. The stress of the situation eventually [[BreakTheCutie breaks]] [[VillainousBreakdown Blaire]] who suddenly yells out of nowhere with a pretty horrific shot of her enraged face, which is made more unsettling due to the poor frame-rate of the video.
26	-->'''Blaire:''' PLEASE, LAURA, '''IT WASN'T US'''!
27	** And then there's the moment where after the 'Never Have I Ever' game ends with Blaire decided to sell Mitch out at the very last second, and just as she types to Laura that 'it was him', [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/img_1162.PNG a shot of Mitch ominously staring at the camera appears]]... almost as if right there and then, [[EtTuBrute he knew that Blaire had left him at the mercy of Laura's wrath and there's nothing he can do about it.]]
28	* As mentioned in the YMMV page, what's possibly more horrifying than the deaths and the JumpScare in the end combined, is the outright needless cruelty and amorality [[TeensAreMonsters of teenagers of the modern period.]] While bullying itself is nothing new, the TearJerker page mentions how bullying is worse than ever, and the movie shows how [[HumansAreBastards monstrous humanity can be]].
29	* [[WhatCouldHaveBeen The original, deleted ending.]] No closing the laptop for a JumpScare. Blaire would have screamed one final time (the same scream at the end of the trailer, actually) before the laptop hit a fatal error, frozen on her horrified face, [[NothingIsScarier leaving her fate unknown]].
