12----
13!!This webcomic contains examples of
14* AmnesiacsAreInnocent: The Girl in White comes off this way. Her passionate love declarations only add to her childishness.
15* BarredFromTheAfterlife: The ghosts in Bean's house are just hanging around, apparently unable to move on.
16* CassandraTruth: No one believes Bean is living in a haunted house, not even her mother, despite also living there.
17* CatsAreMean: "You've always disappointed Mommy, Walter."
18* CreepyLongFingers: The shadow demon/ghost sports some nightmarish fingers, [[BigCreepyCrawlies not to mention]] [[SpidersAreScary legs]].
19* ForgetfulJones: At first the way Eli seems to randomly forget and remember certain things is kinda funny. Not so funny when Bean bluntly reminds him that his house is her house now… While this applies to Eli mostly, all the ghosts in the in-between have a looping form of amnesia.
20* GentlemanSnarker: Eli, the first human ghost Bean encounters, has shades of this.
21* GhostAmnesia: Eli claims he remembers everything, but his demonstration is less than convincing. [[http://lapsecomic.com/comic/2013/11/29]]
22* GhostlyChill
23* HauntedHouse: Where the story takes place.
24* HellIsThatNoise
25* HouseAmnesia: Although, instead of wanting to kick her out, Eli invites Bean to stay at his house, which is now Bean's.
26* IronicName: Bean's last name is Fortune. [[http://lapse.spiderforest.com/comic/2013/10/21]]
27* IncurableCoughOfDeath: Eli still has one AFTER death.
28* ISeeDeadPeople: Bianca is unfortunately plagued with this gift, even though [[CassandraTruth no one believes her]].
29* IWillWaitForYou: [[spoiler:The Girl in White is still waiting for her boyfriend to get home from the war.]]
30* LivingShadow: [[spoiler:Whatever the hell comes into Bean's room at night.]]
31* LoveLetter: Bean is treated to a reading of one. She's less than impressed.
32* [[spoiler:NearDeathExperience: Bean [[StaircaseTumble falls down the stairs]], but is not quite dead]]
33* OminousFog: When Bean explores the outdoors after the accident.
34* OurGhostsAreDifferent: Some look like normal people, [[NightmareFuel others look…]]
35* PersonWithTheClothing: The Girl in White, as the name implies, is sporting an all-white ensemble.
36* StaircaseTumble
37* ToughLove: Sylvia to Bean. She's not really so much antagonistic as just not overly affectionate.
38* TroubledFetalPosition: Two so far, [[http://lapsecomic.com/comic/2014/03/06]] and [[http://www.lapsecomic.com/comic/2014/04/17]]
39* UnfinishedBusiness: Whether this is truly the case is uncertain as no one can remember. [[http://lapsecomic.com/comic/2014/02/21]]
40* VoidBetweenTheWorlds: Wherever Bean and the other ghosts exist.
41* WideEyedIdealist: The Girl in White, and she'll get on your case if you hint that she's being naive.
