- mysterious or creepy past events ( more psychological background in IOTNBO as of now, though we have a percentage of that also in LinkELK )

- mysterious or creepy characters ( more psychological cases and people in IOTNBO as of now, LinkELK markets with the viewer's hunch and suspicion on any featured character )

- janet suhh OST that sets the whole atmosphere for the story ( the artist is present in both LinkELK and IOTNBO )

- art style that feels similar in terms of the atmosphere ( creepy fairytale in IOTNBO and creepy culinary in LinkELK )

- a " murder " that is not featured as passively in LinkELK as it was in IOTNBO ( it plays a major part in the LinkELK and a major sub-plot in IOTNBO )

- the main characters are not different in terms of complexity


most obvious differences

- LinkELK is set in a realm of fantasy whereas IOTNBO is set in a realm of psychology

- LinkELK feels more story-driven and IOTNBO felt more character-driven

- the main characters are different in terms of personality and family background
