This stoker's novel shows how fragile human existence was, and weakened the beliefs of free will and immortal soul. Stoker relied on medical sciences as a physiology and used much of the novel in his characters, brain actions that cast doubt on such beliefs as trance and somnambulism, dramatizing a very common fear at the time of the novel, the Victorian era. It was well portrayed the fear that at that time humans were soulless animals and followed only their physiological and cerebral instincts. The soul and the mind were in conflict. It was the religious faith of the time against the effects considered "paranormal", portrayed in the novel.

- In the story, there are number of instances when Ponyboy relentlessly showed his selfless character. For instance, he never deserted Johnny nor left him all alone when Johnny was searched by the police.
