*During the events surrounding her prank and her terror at Uiharu Kazari's counter-prank, Saten Ruiko's thoughts and the narration reference numerous urban legends.
**The Kesaran Pasaran, a white fluffball creature which according to its story brings happiness to its finder, was mentioned as an example of a non-creepy urban legend, among the sort Saten gathers.
**Among the cases she considered where a monster's name could be said background or repeat to make the subject go away (this not being one of those cases), Saten considers Hisaruki.
**At one point while fearing for her life, Saten gets the feeling she was about to die more gruesomely that the 's or Hikiko-san's victims.
***Hikiko-san is said to be the vengeful ghost of a girl who was abused by her parents and bullied at school, eventually committing suicide, who targets bullies and similar children.
**While panicking, Saten thinks of Kokkuri-san and Satoru-kun, two subjects of urban legends supposedly all-knowing and providing right answers.
**At one point, Saten considered that, unable to escape the room, her situation was more like attempting to fool an axe murderer under the bed than like the Sukima Onna.
**While staying still but in apparent danger, Saten Ruiko compared her situation to being on the railroad track, with careless action putting her at risk and doing nothing getting her run over when the train arrives, needing to act to avoid become the legend of a frozen rail crossing crawling around with only the top half of her body. This is referencing the , the vengeful ghost of a schoolgirl lurking around train stations or urban areas at night, who is said to have fallen onto a railway line and been cut in half by a train. Lacking a lower body, the Teke Teke drags her upper body along with her hands or elbows, with her name coming from the sound she makes while moving.
**Among the cases she considered where responding to a voice was a wrong move and would lead to one's soul being stolen away, Saten considers and Hasshaku-sama.
**When Shirai Kuroko approached in the middle of her terror, Saten wondered if Kuroko had always been like Temple Born T-san.
