2	----
3	!This series contains examples of:
4	* TheAlcoholic: Evelyn has a history with alcohol. As she later reveals to Dan, her first day sober was her first day on the job.
5	* AnimalisticAbomination: A bird with human eyes and a five-legged deer.
6	* ApocalypticLog: Evelyn and Dan find a cache of tapes recorded by host 7.
7	* ArtifactTitle: InUniverse, "the bell" is a high-frequency sound that drives off the creatures. When the tower was first built, that purpose was served by an actual bell.
8	* BodyHorror: Just about anything that dies in the forest will become this. Or be used to make this.
9	* BodyOfBodies:
10	** The biggest Amalgam is similar to the monster from ''The Horror from the Vault,'' at least in appearance.
11	** Downplayed in other cases, as smaller ones may only have a couple of parts from one or two bodies, human and not.
12	* BrownNote: Dan takes a call on his first day. Whatever was on the other end leaves blood streaming out of his ears.
13	* DeathOfAChild: Multiple children have disappeared into the forest, including two near the start of the sequel. [[spoiler:Bernard, however, is rescued after he's seen entering.]]
14	* DeadpanSnarker: Every entry of the series features Evelyn making dry, witty remarks. The audio narration done by AutumnIvy certainly lends extra snark to her. However, her demeanor can also be considered as that of a StepfordSnarker, on account of the tragic situations and extremely terrifying events occurring around her.
15	* DisappearedDad: Evelyn's father died when she was young, and she moved out of town when her mother remarried. [[spoiler:One of her comments implies that he might have died in the forest, and his face a part of the creature Evelyn saw at the graduation party.]]
16	* DontGoInTheWoods: People tend to go missing. Evelyn and Daniel are radio hosts 28 and 29, respectively.
17	* DrowningMySorrows: After seeing one of the creatures at the graduation party, Evelyn tried to drink it out of her memories.
18	* EldritchAbomination: There is something slumbering in the woods that makes them unsafe. It sends out nightmares of it rising, and travels in a huge cloud of fog.
19	* EyeScream: [[spoiler:The Root-Man gouges out Evelyn's right eye.]]
20	* {{Fingore}}:
21	** Four of Jennifer's fingers end up in the bird's nest.
22	** The Root-Man ends up with children's hands poking through his ribcage.
23	* HalfTheManHeUsedToBe: The vanished couple are found in this state.
24	* TheLostLenore: Jennifer to her boyfriend, Elijah.
25	* MixAndMatchCritters: Most of the monsters in the forest, but especially "Big Boy", the six-eyed amalgamate of pieces from countless creatures. [[spoiler:By the end, this includes Jennifer, whatever composed the Root-Man, and (briefly) Evelyn.]]
26	* NoZombieCannibals: Averted. Several of the forests undead will attack each other and attempt to assimilate their tissues. [[BodyOfBodies Note that we avoid saying "eat each other..."]]
27	* OminousFog: Something lives in it.
28	* PostModernMagick: The station has a "bell" that projects an ultrasonic frequency that drives supernatural horrors away.
29	* SignificantMonogram: Evelyn '''F'''aye '''M'''cKinnon finds it fitting that she ended up a radio DJ.
30	* SwitchingPOV: Most parts are written by Evelyn, though Dan has taken over when she's incapacitated.
31	* TheUndead: Whatever force that inhabits the forest can zombify and "amalgamate" everything that dies there. The first time Evelyn and Daniel use The Bell was because the station had come under attack by a horde of zombies. Its also implied that the bird that creeps Evelyn out has the eyes of one of the former radio hosts. The biggest amalgam, "Big Boy,'' has at least two deer, several people, and various other animals comprising its makeup.
32	* UndeadAbomination: Anything or anyone that is unfortunate enough to die within the borders of the forest are reanimated as hideous, conjoined monstrosities by the supernatural force inhabiting it.
