Final Destination Expanded Universe

A number of novels and comic books have been released based on the Final Destination movies.

Tropes used in Final Destination Expanded Universe include:

The novels

General

Eldritch Abomination: Death's true form.
Scary Black Man: If the books End of the Line and Looks Could Kill are any indication, this is Death's preferred form when interacting directly with people.

Dead Man's Hand

Bring My Brown Pants: Arlen Ploog pisses his pants after he's smacked around and almost killed by a criminal.
Dead Man's Hand: Alluded to in the title.
Death by Irony: Shawna despises big felines, yet she gets killed by a Jaguar. And no, we don't mean the cat.
Death by Sex: Arlen Ploog.
Decoy Protagonist: Aldis Escobar. The entire first chapter is dedicated to him... and he dies in a car accident on the last page of it, long before the book's disaster (the collapse of a glass elevator) even occurs.
Downer Ending: Tom is run over by a truck, and shortly after his funeral, Allie finds out she has a malignant form of HIV.
Evil Elevator: One of these is the opening disaster. A big glass elevator attached to the outside of "Merlin's Tower" winds up plummeting down onto the street below, killing everyone in it and some other bystanders.
Groin Attack: One of the Necro Non Sequiturs ends with a survivor getting his penis bitten off by the prostitute who was giving him head.
Half the Man He Used To Be: Officer Murphy.
Viva Las Vegas

Dead Reckoning

Asshole Victim: Eric Prescott.
The Bouncer: Sebastian Lebecque. Also a Badass Biker.
Dropped a Bridge on Him: Marina Hewlett's death is just as, if not more than, anticlimactic as Alex's: she is bitten by a spider. Her death isn't even shown in the novel; one of the survivors comes to the visionary's apartment and tells her how she died.
Evil Elevator: Charlie's death. He seems to get the elevator that Eric screwed around with earlier working and turns and calls to the others just as he steps through the doorway, failing to notice the elevator isn't there. He falls down the shaft, but is only injured and yells up "I'll be fi-" right before the elevator comes crashing down on top of him.
Half The Woman She Used To Be: Macy.
Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Nice job shooting out the lock of Club Kitty and accidentally causing the whole place to collapse, Marina. You've shown us that police really are useless.

Death of the Senses

Asshole Victim: Chelsea Cox, Dawson Donahue and Dominique Swann.
Eye Scream: Chelsea gets a two-pronged icicle through both of her eyes.
Serial Killer: Instead of a large-scale disaster, the book takes the arguably more interesting route of having the visionary kill a would-be serial killer who had intended murder several people, who the main character must now desperately track down as Death starts working down the dead lunatic's hit list.

Destination Zero

Asshole Victim: Stewart Tubbs and Al Kinsey.
Black Dude Dies First: Hal Ward.
Death by Irony: Al Kinsey is decapitated while a prostitute is giving him head.
Death by Sex: Hal Ward and Al Kinsey.
Eye Scream: A character gets blinded by snake venom.
Final Girl: Patti Fuller.
Half the Man He Used To Be: Zack.
Intercontinuity Crossover: Though never identified by name, the detective in the Victorian Britain segments is obviously Sherlock Holmes.
Kill It with Fire: Someone gets burned alive from the inside out.
Meaningful Name: Susan Fries.
Mistaken for Terrorist: It turns out the bombers were just criminals who wanted millions of dollars.
No Dead Body Poops: Emp witnessed this happening to her daddy when she was a little girl.
Not Quite Dead: Subverted. Stewart Tubbs was still alive, but no one realized it until after they cut him open, broke open his ribs, and pulled out his lung during the autopsy. Then he woke up, and subsequently died.
Off with His Head: Al Kinsey.
Recycled in Space: About half of the book is set in 1888 and involves a group surviving a house fire after one of them has a vision of it before it happens.
Serial Killer: Jack the Ripper shows up here.
Snakes Are Evil: Three of the victims are killed by poisonous snakes.
Super Drowning Skills: Justified. The first victim probably could swim, but his leg was broken and he was being bashed around by a motorbike underwater.
Trailers Always Spoil: Zack Halloran's death is spoiled on the very FIRST PAGE before the actual story even begins.

End of the Line

Chainsaw Good: Mary-Beth gets sliced apart by one that's haphazardly swinging from scaffolding.
Death by Sex: James Barker and Bodil Raden.
Final Girl: Louise King.
Half-Identical Twins: Danny and Louise King.
Human Pincushion: Bodil Raden and James Barker are impaled by umbrellas, of all things. The latter, however, had already passed out from blood loss after his arm was ripped off. Not that that's any less sadistic...
Impaled with Extreme Prejudice: Peter Hoffman from End of the Line gets impaled on gazelle horns.
Killed Off for Real: Surprisingly subverted for Louise. Played straight for everyone else, including Danny.
- Kate gets a Double Subversion.
Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: Good job tampering with your brother's brakes on his motorcycle and sending him to his death, Louise.
The Reveal: Happens twice, back to back. The first reveal is that Kate Shelley inadvertently caused the deaths of all the survivors, and that she became a servant for Death after she was resuscitated during the Sux race. The second is that Louise also became a servant for Death after Kate brought her back to life after accidentally killing her. She ends up inadvertently killing her brother.

Looks Could Kill

Asshole Victim: This novel takes this a step further with a group of Ungrateful Bastards who completely abandon the heroine after she's physically scarred saving everyone. She then strikes a deal with Death to help kill everyone in exchange for getting her looks back.
Birth-Death Juxtaposition: Double Subversion. Gunter Nonhoff dies just minutes before his wife starts to have the baby. Just when Death is about claim both of them, Sherry grows a heart and leaves her room, sparing Cabernet and allowing her to have the baby.
Bury Your Gays: After everything Chardonnay went through growing up, she ends up dying anyway.
Deadpan Snarker: Gunter Nonhoff.
Death by Irony: Rose had an eating disorder and always longed to be thinner than she already was. Let's just say she got her wish.
Final Girl: Cabernet.
Half the Man He Used To Be: Gunter Nonhoff.
Parental Incest: Turns out one of the models is the offspring of a man who repeatedly raped his daughter. And that was the least of his sins.
Redemption Equals Death: Sherry decides to spare Cabernet's life after realizing she's not a Jerkass after all. Cue incoming bus driven by Death himself one year later.
Super Drowning Skills: Chardonnay, boiled to death in a hot tub.
Tempting Fate: Oh, Brut...
Very Loosely Based on a True Story: The father of one of the main characters was based on Ronald Simmons.
Villain Protagonist: Sherry.

Driven to Suicide: Death is more of a prick than usual, never going after the main character, and instead just driving him to the Despair Event Horizon so he hangs himself.

Spring Break

Gainax Ending: See directly below.
God in Human Form: The end reveals that Carly is apparently the latest incarnation of a Mayan goddess; she's seemingly forced to Ascend to a Higher Plane of Existence
