| Scary Birthday to You / int_6e5da6fe | comment |
Ungrateful Bitch: Your snotty friend Sarah gets twisted up like a balloon animal by Dr. McDeath. If you manage to return her to normal in one ending, she razzes you out for having hired a clown and walks out on your party with the rest of your guests in tow. | |

Schrödinger's Gun | |
| Scary Birthday to You / int_76c72a08 | comment |
Schrödinger's Gun: In one ending, the creepy birthday entertainer Dr. MacDeath turns out to be just pulling horror-themed pranks on you without meaning any harm. In other subplots, he is actually evil. | |

Non-Standard Game Over | |
| Scary Birthday to You / int_8e0430ab | comment |
Non Standard Game Over: If you choose to talk it out reasonably with the insane entertainer holding you and your friends hostage, you cannot continue because the book says it should have been obvious that there was no way he would ever play fair with you. | |

Big Bad | |
| Scary Birthday to You / int_970c790a | comment |
If you volunteer to stay at your house so everyone else can do the scavenger hunt, they leave you behind with Dr. Death with no intentions of coming back. Fortunately, the story doesn't end badly on your end, since you offer Dr. Death to be his assistant for future birthday parties, and he agrees. | |

Adults Are Useless | |
| Scary Birthday to You / int_a939d96a | comment |
Adults Are Useless: Played with in one ending where the lady next door breaks up your birthday party, deciding it's getting out of hand, because your parents asked her to supervise and make sure everyone was safe. Sure, she ruined your party, but at least your parents asked someone to look out for you (whereas in most of the other books they happily sit back and let you wander into danger.) | |

Be Careful What You Wish For | |
| Scary Birthday to You / int_b06bbf4b | comment |
Be Careful What You Wish For: Happens in two endings. In one ending, after your birthday has been ruined, you blow out the candles on your cake and wish you could have had a better day — so you get sent back to the start of the book to do the story over again. In another, you're trapped with a sadistic entertainer holding you hostage, so you make a wish to be "as far away from him as possible" which sends you to the middle of a desert. | |

Impossible Task | |
| Scary Birthday to You / int_bd6b86df | comment |
Impossible Task: One of the items you need to get in a scavenger hunt is "blood from a turnip". However, it is possible to get this — Dr. MacDeath even tells you how in one path. | |

Video Game Cruelty Punishment | |
| Scary Birthday to You / int_fcd993bd | comment |
Video Game Cruelty Punishment: Averted in one situation where the only way to get a good ending is if you choose not to save your friend who's trapped in a ballroom with dancing ghosts. The book tells you it's his own fault for being boring enough to be interested in ballroom dance. | |

With Friends Like These...: If you volunteer to stay at your house so everyone else can do the scavenger hunt, they leave you behind with Dr. Death with no intentions of coming back. Fortunately, the story doesn't end badly on your end, since you offer Dr. Death to be his assistant for future birthday parties, and he agrees. The reader is this trope in one path — your friend is trapped in a ballroom with dancing ghosts because he wanted to learn the waltz from them. You decide that anyone who would actually want to learn the waltz is too boring to be worth saving; and escape on your own, leaving him to die. | |
