* One interpretation of Golden Earring's "Twilight Zone" is that it's about a spy-turned-killer having a self-inflicted Villainous BSOD moment.

* In ''[[The Lord of Darkwood]]'' Wylla burned people alive. She did this to please her village's (non existent) goddess to ensure a bountiful harvest. Wylla believed that burning the occasional person alive was better than famine and she Wylla preferred to buy into what her entire village, especially her mother (the previous priestess), than face the possibility that her village has for centuries been sacrificing people in such a painful way in vain. When Wylla was defeated, she admitted what she did was wrong. After that (as of this writing), even months later, she has felt little emotion aside from deep self hatred and remorse. She thinks she is [[Moral Event Horizon|beyond redemption]] and that being burned alive would be too good of a fate for her. The protagonist, who she admired and treasured following her defeat (to the extent she has room for such thoughts and emotions), telling her basically what she already thought and felt certainly didn't do her self worth any favors.
