Line 14:
* [[Axe Crazy]]: A natural result of the demonic possession.
* [[The Bluebeard]]: Carno, as a result of a demonic possession.
* [[Bowdlerise]]: The Japanese Saturn port heavily edits the death scene flashbacks Adrienne sees at certain parts of the game, usually removing any [[Gross Up Close-Up]] shots of Carno's wives being killed. It also skips the [[Rape as Drama]] scene that starts chapter 4, instead starting with Adrienne crying on her bed after the ordeal.
** The original English game also included a more family-friendly option that parents could turn on, locking the original behind a password. Again, this eliminated the rape scene and some of the more disturbing depictions, which is likely what the Saturn version was based on.
* [[Chekhov's Gun]]: The snowman ornament. {{spoiler|Though not quite to the extend one might expect; it's not enough to snap Don out of his possessed state for real, only to buy Adrienne enough time to do him in.}}
** Don asks Adrienne early on for some drain cleaner to help with his darkroom project; she buys him some the next day and it's never spoken of again. {{spoiler|She uses it later on the fully-possessed Don to '''burn the hell out of his face''' and save her own skin.}}
