Line 142:
* [[Going Native]]/[[Insult Backfire]]: "Savage", from the [[Updated Rerelease]] of ''Keeper Of The Seven Keys Pt. 1'' and the ''Future World'' songle.
* [[Go Mad From the Revelation]]: The protagonist of "Perfect Gentleman", from ''Master of the Rings'', is bound to a mental institution in "Who's Mr. Madman?", from ''7 Sinners''.
{{quote| ''"Sixteen years have passed since he, one perfect of his kind, the Casanova of his time, crowned himself to conquer the land in craving for lust. Lust, one of the seven deadly sins. Punishment he has suffered. Look at him what did he become, who is he now?"''}}
* [[Gratuitous French]]: "Perfect Gentleman", from ''Master of the Rings'', has the following bit:
{{quote| ''I am "le d'Artagnan de coeur"''}}
* [[Green Aesop]]: "Paint A New World", from ''Gambling With The Devil''. "If A Mountain Could Talk" from ''7 Sinners''.
* [[Grief Song]]: An [[Alternate Character Interpretation|Alternate Song Interpretation]] towards "Forever And One (Neverland)", from ''The Time Of The Oath'', considering that the band dedicated the whole ''TTOTO'' album to their former bandmante, the late drummer Ingo Schiwchtenberg.
Line 185:
* [[Seven Deadly Sins]]: Some songs from the aptly named ''7 Sinners'' play with this concept, even if it's not a [[Concept Album]].
* [[Shout-Out]]: "Halloween", from ''Keeper Of The Seven Keys Pt. 1'', has one in a few lines to [[Peanuts|Charlie Brown]]:
{{quote| Bad luck if you get a stone,<br />
like the good old Charlie Brown,<br />
you think Linus could be right<br />
The kids will say it's just a stupid lie!!! }}
** In "The Dark Ride", from the eponymous album, this line:
{{quote| [[Metallica|I'm your pain when you can't feel]]}}

== Misc tropes ==
* [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking]]: In the fourth page of the booklet of the remastered ''Walls Of Jericho'', the band takes shots at many people into the section "Into pumpkins". Then, the last part goes this way:
{{quote| ''"(...) all troublemakers on concerts, PUMA Sportswear, (because of no cooperation) Neil Perry (Sounds): if we sound like Discharge, [[Just for Pun|discharge]] yourself! You don't have any glimpse, '''and everyone who is still spelling [[Spell My Name with an "S"|HELLOWEEN with an "A"]].'''"''}}
* [[Mascot]]: Jack-o-Lantern and Fangface; the latter went to Gamma Ray along with Kai Hansen.
* [[Power Metal]]: Credited as the [[Trope Maker]] of the European style. Some give them credit for creating power metal as a whole, but this isn't entirely accurate as the American style of power metal had been around for a couple years before Helloween released their debut.
* [[Spell My Name with an "S"]]: This comes from the fourth page of the booklet of the ''Walls Of Jericho'' remaster:
{{quote| ''"WARNING! Everybody Who Will Be Writing HELLOWEEN With An "A" Or Tries To Distribute Pamphlets With An "A" Will Be Turned Into A Pumpkin!!!"''}}
* [[Take That]]: The fourth page of the ''Walls of Jericho'' remaster contains one towards many people. In the third and most of the fourth pages, many people receive "fangs" (in a [[Shout-Out]] to [[Mascot|Fangface]]) but the "Into Pumpkins" section has the band taking shots at many people for many reasons.
