The Ghost
 Slaughterhouse Rulez / int_1ba17583
comment
The Ghost: Willoughby's former roommate Seymour influences the plot a number of times (his suicide is the reason for Willoughby's ongoing rebellion against the school and his own attempted suicide; plus the lighter he left to Willoughby is Chekhov's Gun in a number of scenes) despite not even appearing in photographs.

Bury Your Gays: Poor Seymour doesn't even make it as far as the start of the movie. Averted with Willoughby, who tries to pull a Heroic Sacrifice but is saved by Don.

Gayngst: The cause of Seymour's suicide and Willoughby's attempted suicide. Not much detail is given as to what exactly happened after they were Forced Out of the Closet, but safe to say it wasn't good.

Butt-Monkey: Meredith has to deal with a collapsing long-distance relationship with his girlfriend, taking over classes he isn't qualified to teach, a general lack of respect from various pupils, and ultimately has his arm torn off by one of the creatures (although he survives the subsequent explosion of the school).

Heroic Sacrifice: Meredith and Willoughby, at different points, both choose to hurl themselves at the monsters so that the rest of the group can get away. Subverted in that they're two of only eight characters to ultimately survive the night.

Driven to Suicide
 Slaughterhouse Rulez / int_6d332aea
comment
Driven to Suicide: Happens before the movie begins with Seymour, Willoghby's roommate before Don. He and Willoughby were in a relationship, and Seymour kills himself when Clegg catches them together and outs them to the school authorities and their parents. Willoughby tries to do the same in his grief and rage over Seymour, but Don intervenes.

Token Good Teammate: Clemsie and her friend are the only two upper crust at the boarding school that don't treat the Sparta house members like dirt. To a lesser extent Smudgers, who doesn't actively bully but does nothing to help either.

Boarding School of Horrors

comment
Boarding School of Horrors: There's a strict pecking order, the "House Gods" (basically prefects) dish out strict physical punishment to those who break the rules, or whom they just don't like, and the people high on the pecking order gladly order around those they consider beneath them, much to the ignorance of the adults theoretically keeping order. And there are dragons in the tunnels.

Inferiority Superiority Complex: Clegg relies on his position as a house god to put down those he sees as beneath him, but when faced with a genuine threat he basically suffers a breakdown and ends up getting his arms torn off by the monsters.
