* [[Captain Ersatz]]: Sawrunner (not to be mistaken with the boss Sawer) brandishes a chainsaw, howls loudly when attacking, and wears a uncanny mask. He is just like Leatherface from ''[[The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (Film)|The Texas Chainsaw Massacre]]'', and it does not make him any less terrifying.

* [[Driven to Suicide]]: Suicide's a reoccurring theme. News papers tell of a higher depression rate, uplifting messages on the walls, and a lot encouraging suicides too. Some of Simon's demons commit suicide if they've taken too much damage, and some will psychically force Simon to commit suicide. A certain NPC commits suicide during the game also.

** {{spoiler|The game itself is Simon attempting to stave it off - nearly all the endings end with his suicide. Who he [[Taking You With Me|takes with him]] in death (or life) depends on the ending.}}

* [[Drop the Hammer]]: A rather small sledgehammer, which nonetheless can be used to tear down brick walls and is very effective against enemies. Many enemies use ordinary hammers as weapons as well.

* [[Nothing Is Scarier]]: Once again the prologue, early parts of the forest, and the Long dark hallway beneath the roped off apartment. Quite tense walking through there with your phone out as you hear the voices discussing the condition of a therapy patient. Always waiting for something to start chasing you, but nothing scary actually happens. {{spoiler|at least until you open the door at the end.}}

* [[Off With His Head]]: The Doctor is seen decapitating a man with a saw. Earlier, a killing is seen recorded on a tape in which the murderer used a pair of gardening shears.

* [[One Bullet Clips]]: Averted; reloading is handled realistically. When you reload a pistol, you lose any bullets still left in the magazine. If you reload compulsively without realizing this, you can quickly render the game unwinnable by wasting all your ammo. The shotgun, in contrast, is realistically topped off one shell at a time.
