* [[Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs (novel)|"Garasu No Hitsugi De Nemuru Himegimi"]] from [[Sound Horizon]]'s ''Märchen'' implies that the Blue Prince has a thing for dead girls, both through Märchen's comments on his "peculiar preferences" and the Prince's own comments about how he's tried and failed to love "all the ''living'' women." His dismayed reaction to Snow White's revival in the live performances only serves to make the implication stronger.

* The "Lichloved" feat in ''[[Dungeons and Dragons|The Book of Vile Darkness]]'' causes the undead to treat you like an undead creature (in other words, they won't even consider attacking you) and makes it easier for you to command them. The book explicitly states you got to that state through repeated acts of sexual congress with the undead. Also, you start to ''look'' like one (judging by a picture of a character with that feat later in the book).
