Paranormal Files is a series of mystery hidden object games produced by Elephant Games. They follow the adventures of Rick Rogers and, later, Rachel Cowell as they explore haunted locations and solve supernaturally charged crimes from the past. Originally a standalone series, it has since been revealed to exist in the same universe as a handful of other Elephant properties. | |

Title Drop: Paranormal Files is both the name of the series and the name of Rick Rogers's paranormal investigation agency. The subtitles of some of the games also get dropped in dialogue; in The Trap of Truth, all five of the previous games' titles appear in Rick's journals, as they're the names he's assigned to the cases he solved. | |

The Glorious War of Sisterly Rivalry: Rick learns that Tina, the girl who has been missing for a year, had a fight with her sister Jessie shortly before her disappearance about borrowing some earrings. Tina's distress over their last conversation being a frivolous argument causes her to turn into a banshee after she dies, albeit a good one who tries to scare people away so the Tall Man doesn't have a chance to kill them. | |

It was this until the can was opened, and the mask was sent to Ethan Harris, who put it on and became its slave. Rick has to find the ancient scroll that can create a new can to seal it away again. | |

Sequel Hook: The Trap of Truth has its bonus chapter end with Rick asking Daemon to show him the store where he bought the game they've just been playing. Sure enough, Ghost Chapter begins with Rick and Rachel at that very store. As of the end of Ghost Chapter, series protagonist Rick Rogers has disappeared and is still missing, and the man who hired Rachel and her team to investigate his estate has also disappeared - and stolen some key items. The end of the main game shows this man on the phone with Rick. In the next installment, Price of a Secret, Rick reappears in the bonus chapter - but not permanently. Silent Willow continues the mystery, which remains unresolved. Counterpart brings it to its conclusion at last. | |

By the time of Price of a Secret, which is set fourteen years after the opening of Ghost Chapter, Rachel has cut off her braid and Mia has grown her hair to shoulder length. | |

Shared Universe: Counterpart reveals that this series takes place in the same universe as Grim Tales, with Anna Gray (the protagonist of that series) coming to aid Rachel and the team with their current case. By extension, this means that Paranormal Files also takes place in the same universe as Mystery Trackers, Haunted Hotel, Detectives United, and Mystery Case Files. | |

For this reason, he allows Rick the chance to rescue his friends from the punishments intended for them. | |

Murderous Mannequin: These are what's causing all the havoc in the shopping mall - mannequins more or less come to life after closing and drive the security guards mad. But it's only near the end of the game that Rick realizes the mannequins are actually real people, whom Double Faced has enslaved with his powers. Presumably, his defeat sets them free again. The mannequins return in the bonus chapter, but this time they're just ordinary mannequins for the most part; the real problem lies elsewhere. | |

Shout-Out: During the main game of The Tall Man, Rick muses that he'll have to "channel my inner Indiana Jones" in order to swiftly replace a needed item with a heavy ball so as not to trigger a trap. Later, in the bonus chapter, Rick watches as railroad tracks bend themselves into snakelike figures and wonders, "Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?" Both the bonus chapter of The Trap of Truth and the opening act of Ghost Chapter include board games which seem to be heavily based on the one from Jumanji. | |

Befriending the Enemy | |
| Paranormal Files (Video Game) / int_eee57253 | comment |
Befriending the Enemy: When Rick and Rachel first meet in Trials of Worth, it's not a good relationship; he doesn't appreciate her deceptive tactics. By the end of the "Freaky Friday" Flip, however, they start to become friends, and as of The Trap of Truth it's clear that the friendship is moving in a romantic direction. Rick notes in Trap that he also gained a good friend in Gabriel as a result of the whole thing. | |

Downer Beginning: Reading Rick's diary, which is in his car at the start of the game, reveals that the series has one of these. He was enjoying a comfortable life and was getting ready to propose to his girlfriend, whom he really loved. Then he was abruptly fired from his job, which caused him to go home early, only to find his girlfriend in bed with his best friend. He packed his car and headed back to the house his father had left him. As the game begins, he picks up a hitchhiker. She's a ghost and now he only has three days to live. | |

With Friends Like These... | |
| Paranormal Files (Video Game) / int_fdbd6162 | comment |
With Friends Like These...: In the opening cinematic, a game of Spin the Bottle leads two college students, Elliot and Tina, to go into a closet to kiss. But when the door opens, it reveals Tina being rejected by Elliot, and some of her so-called friends humiliate her by taking pictures of the incident on their cell phones. Distraught, Tina runs out of the cabin and into the dark woods, never to be seen again. A year later, her friend Nicky (who was not involved with the prank and has been trying to find Tina) reaches out to Rick for help because something is threatening the rest of the group. | |
