Angel Unaware: Difference between revisions

* The Eighties Matchbox B-Line Disaster's song "I Could be an Angle" is based on the [[Rouge Angles of Satin|misspelled]] sign of a beggar who was trying to invoke this trope.

* This idea is the main theme of Michael W. Smith's "Angels Unaware," undoubtedly inspired by the [[Trope Namer]]:

Maybe we are entertaining angels unaware. }}

 

* ''[[Red Dead Redemption]]'' contains the Stranger side-missions "I Know You" where a well dressed stranger from John's past meets up with him three times in each of the game's main locations. (New Austin, Nuevo Paraíso, and West Elizabeth/)The final meeting is the most notable, as {{spoiler|John, finally fed up with not getting any answers from this guy, shoots him three times as he's walking away. The bullets apparently pass right through the guy, but leave no evidence that they even touched him. When John looks away for a moment, he's gone.}}

** The man calls the last place that they meet "a fine spot." {{spoiler|That same area is where John, his wife, [[And Zoidberg|and Uncle]] are eventually buried.}}

'''The Strange Man:''' {{spoiler|Yes, many have.}} }}

* The [[Interactive Fiction]] game ''[[Vespers]]'' begins with the Biblical quote, and begins as the characters, Medieval monks, grant a place to stay to an almost-dead, beautiful girl that arrives at their gates. {{spoiler|It's a subversion: she's a ''demon''.}}
