* [[Adaptation Expansion]]: Most of the episodes in the original novella are adapted one to one, with some minor differences. Some larger changes exist though: In the film, the party is explicitly shown to be an orgy, whereas in the book this was just strongly hinted at. The big [[The Reveal|Reveal]] in the end is also an addition, as the "''Traumnovelle''" left the story fairly open.

* [[Author Existence Failure]]: Just barely averted, as Kubrick delivered the final cut (minus the digital people) to Warner Brothers just a few days before his death. It would have been interesting to see how the NC-17 situation would have been handled if Stanley Kubrick hadn't passed away. As it was, he told the production crew that if they weren't getting the rating they wanted to insert CGI people into the scene to obscure the sex. That's what they did.

* [[Bluff the Impostor]]: Bill is found out when he doesn't know the "house password" for the mansion. {{spoiler|There never was a house password.}}

* [[Break in Threat]]: Possibly. It's unclear if the bad guys left the main character's mask on his bed as a threat or if his wife simply found the mask herself.
