A character suffers from a extremely horrifying [[Fate Worse Than Death]]. [[Mercy Kill|Suicide]] is not an option: even death never comes to free him from it. He is immobilized or otherwise contained, unable to communicate with anyone, and unlikely to be removed from this situation—not even by death—anytime in the foreseeable future. This is often a variation on [[Taken for Granite]] in which the victim remains conscious, and the worst-case scenario for tropes such as [[Sealed Room in the Middle of Nowhere]], [[Involuntary Transformation]], [[Phantom Zone Picture]], and [[Who Wants to Live Forever?]].
