  • Complete Monster: Varlyn Stroud has no redeeming qualities of any kind.
  • High Octane Nightmare Fuel: Start with the raining blood and possessed Madonna and child statues, and just keep going. Every single episode has something terrifying in it, though special mention has to go to the end of "Pick a Number".
    • "She's screaming!"
    • The town of Babylon. Not during the day, but the nightlife is, well...
    • Every scene involving Ben's extended family. Forests full of doll's heads is NOT charming!
    • The death-mask scene with Evander Geddes.
  • Magnificent Bastard: One could make a valid argument to rename the trope Management. Justin and Iris also fit this trope at numerous points throughout the series.
  • Moral Event Horizon: Multiple.
    • Iris when she set the ministry on fire.
    • Brother Justin's treatment of his maids.
    • Sofie shooting Jonesy and resurrecting Justin in the finale.
  • Retroactive Recognition:
    • Tim DeKay (Jonesy) is much more well-known these days as Agent Peter Burke.
    • Yes, that is T-Bag playing a good guy.
  • Tear Jerker: Many, most especially the immolation of the orphan children in Justin's ministry.
  • Too Good to Last
