• Nightmare Fuel: A case has been made that the "Yellow Wallpaper" that the narrator is ripping off of the walls at the end is her own skin.

• Paranoia Fuel
• Values Dissonance: It took how long for scholars to look at this work as a piece of feminist literature? Not very long, as the story was seen as responsible for the discrediting of the "rest cure" the narrator endures, within Charlotte Perkins Gilman's lifetime.
