comment
Workplace Horror: In a first for the series (unless one counts Noah's housesitting duties in Carson House), this episode heavily revolves around the player carrying out Jack's duties as the new fire lookout in a state park. This includes recording the wind speed, temperature and weather each night before turning in, communicating with other lookouts, investigating problem campers and assisting a lost hiker over the radio. Over the course of about a week, Jack starts to sense there's something sinister going on in the park, but the other staff are either dismissive or give only cryptic warnings.

Cower Power
 Fears to Fathom (Video Game) / int_1e42a412
comment
Cower Power: Each protagonist has to hide for a time before escaping danger to conclude the story. What makes it challenging is that they mustn't make noise to attract attention to their whereabouts; the game can also pick up noise coming from the player's microphone while hiding. Miles in Home Alone has to hide in his room from an intruder until the police arrive on the scene. Holly in Norwood Hitchhike hides in the motel closet while the intruder looks for her before the owner intervenes. Noah in Carson House hides in the laundry room until Cara has moved elsewhere, giving him a chance to escape and call for help. Jack in Ironbark Lookout hides under his bed then in the outhouse from the cultists before running for the park entrance.

Psycho Ex-Girlfriend: Cara. When she finds out where Noah is staying, she attempts to get back together with him, but quickly slides into threatening violence when he refuses and threatens to call the police. She attempts to kill him with a kitchen knife and also threatens to kill his new girlfriend Evelyn. She was heavily under the influence of meth and alcohol at the time, though it's implied she wasn't all that stable before that and the drugs just worsened her mental state.

comment
Uncertain Doom: One of Jack's first calls is to investigate a campsite in an off limits area. He comes across a campsite that seems to have been abandoned in a hurry. Finding no sign of the campers, Jack can only report what he found. During one night, Jack gets into radio contact with a lost hiker and tries to guide him to safety. The last thing Jack hears is the hiker finding someone else in the forest before he's pulled away to accept a supply delivery from another ranger. Afterwards, Jack doesn't hear anything more from the hiker.

Not Good with Rejection: Cara. After her drug use drove Noah away and he began seeing another girl, Cara does not take it well at all, stalking Noah to the Carson house and breaking in with a knife. She will try to kill Noah if she spots him and in the ending, the police are convinced she had malicious intentions towards Noah despite her claiming otherwise.

Implied Death Threat: Silas's parting words. It's soon revealed he was lying about his job; indirectly confirming he's a cultist, and retroactively making this a Shame If Something Happened. And in the Cower Power sequence, it almost comes true.

Sequel Escalation: Both in runtime and each game's threat. The first game sees you playing a boy home alone for the night, who has to deal with an intruder. By the fourth episode, you play as a fire watchman who spends several days in the woods as things get in increasingly creepy, culminating in him facing off against a cult who may be responsible for numerous disappearances.

Foregone Conclusion: Given that each story is narrated by the episode's protagonist, we know that they will all survive their horrifying ordeals to tell the tale (although the player can still get game overs if they make the wrong decisions, albeit this just takes them back to their previous save point).

Age-Gap Romance
 Fears to Fathom (Video Game) / int_52196c03
comment
Age-Gap Romance: Noah - who was 18 during the events of the episode - mentions that Cara is three years older than him, making her around 21 when they dated. He says he was initially a bit wary about dating her because she was older than his previous girlfriends, but he decided to give it a chance because they got along so well. However, the relationship didn't last long because Cara turned out to be far more immature and reckless than Noah despite being older. Cara being an adult while Noah was still in high school when they dated also gives off some red flags, with Cara's later actions cementing their relationship as disturbing and unsavoury.

comment
Police Are Useless: Despite getting photo evidence of cult activity in the forest, his fellow park rangers insist that everything Jack saw was just a prank or delusion and don't take any further action. However, it's implied by their behavior that the veteran park rangers are well aware of the cult's presence and turn a blind eye to their activities out of fear, so they have every reason to cover up the incident.

Addled Addict: Two months into her relationship with Noah, Cara began to use meth (with the implication that wasn't too stable before that either). When Noah attempted to get her help, she turned on him and felt that he was trying to change her, culminating in them parting ways. Cara's character model is unhealthily thin, looks unkempt, and has dark circles under her eyes. It's confirmed at the end of the episode that she was drunk and high while stalking Noah through the house.

Dramatic Irony: The player will become aware of the intruder long before Miles does, which is used to enhance the horror. A keen-eyed player can spot the intruder sneaking upstairs in the background while Miles is eating lasagna on the living room couch. Since Miles doesn't know of the danger, he has no reason to be afraid and the player has no choice but to go upstairs for the story to continue.

Double Standard: Abuse, Female on Male: Completely averted. Cara's obsessive and violent behavior towards her ex-boyfriend throughout the game is Played for Horror all the way to the end; the police and courts also take it seriously, as she ends up being arrested and locked up for stalking and attacking Noah.

Cassandra Truth: After Jack flees the park and tries to warn everybody about the cult, neither the authorities and his own family believe him. It's implied that the park staff and the local townsfolk do have some knowledge of what's really going on, but they're reluctant to back-up Jack's account and look the other way.

Screw This, I'm Outta Here: Once Jack evades the cult's initial attempts to catch him, he makes a run for his RV and drives straight out of the park, immediately quitting his job afterwards.

Red Herring: It's implied that one the Loony Fans of Ray Carson's wife could be the intruder, with Noah being in the wrong place at the wrong time. The intruder isn't one of them and couldn't care less about the Carsons. She's after Noah himself.

I Never Told You My Name
 Fears to Fathom (Video Game) / int_dd95a27b
comment
I Never Told You My Name: A retroactive example. Jack initially doesn't think much of it that Silas knows his name without Jack having told him, because Silas claims to work at the park and says his co-workers have talked about Jack. However, Jack gets a lot more worried when he mentions it to Connor, who says that no one named Silas works with them.

Very Loosely Based on a True Story: All the plots are based upon supposedly true stories submitted to the developers. Although some details are altered or embellished so the stories can be fitted into a video game format and we can't be certain how accurate they are, for the most part the plots feature fairly plausible scenarios, with the threats coming from dangerous people rather than anything supernatural.

Cult
 Fears to Fathom (Video Game) / int_e5411cdf
comment
Cult: A cult is revealed to be operating in Ironbark State Park. Not much is known about them and their activities, but they're definitely not benevolent; they stalk, threaten and try to attack Jack when he gets too close to revealing their activities and they're likely responsible for at least some of the disappearances of hikers and campers in the park. Silas is strongly implied to be a cult member and indicates that they believe some events, such as forest fires, are nature's way of restoring balance and shouldn't be interfered with.

Suspiciously Specific Denial: All of the park rangers and camp staff caution Jack not to wander too far north, especially at night, ostensibly due to the presence of dangerous wildlife. The way they say it gives Jack the impression there's something else going on they don't want him knowing about.

Good Samaritan: The first three games have small moments of concern and kindness. The neighbor in Home Alone warns Miles of the strange man at his front door, notifies his parents, and goes over to check on him while the police search the house. In Norwood Hitchhike Holly gets a ride to a motel from a relative stranger and repeated assistance from the desk clerk. Noah can help an elderly woman find an item at the grocery store.
