Easter egg "hunt" in Overlord:raising hell

[Overl0rdl]

So, In all sources I could find, wikipedia, fandom, IGN, and so on, there's never been any mentions of easter eggs in the game, apart from occasional refferences to other games or the lord of the rings, and i've never noticed one.

But, now that I have the steam version (I only played it on Xbox 360) it's easier to notice details, and i think i've found an Easter Egg.



Just at the entrance of Heaven's peak Tower, after you've defeated Sir William, at your right facing away from the entrance, there's a (I call it) "Possesed Statue" that is facing the wall, unlike the others, and it also Sighs and Groans like a Mistress.




I'm not sure if it makes any difference but I discovered it while doing a full corruption run, choosing velvet, and just before getting inside the dwarf beer factory.

I'd like to see if there's more easter eggs hidden inside the game, so (If anyone is still playing and reads this.) I'd be thankful if any of you (or just you in singular) could tell me if they know any other ones or help me find all the easter eggs on this game, thank you.



As you can see by my name I do enjoy Overlord quite a bit

Overlord is one of my favorite games, but I can't recall that many Easter Eggs.
The only ones who come to mind are all the references to Lord of the Rings (Halflings, their iconic houses, the Overlord looking like Sauron, ...)

One thing I noticed, that could be of interest, concerns the Seven Heroes.
I'm not sure if this could be considered an easter egg, but the Seven Heroes are based on the Seven Deadly Sins:

-Gluttony (Melvin)
-Lust (William
-Greed (King Goldo)
-Sloth (Oberon Greenhaze)
-Wrath (Kahn)
-Envy (Jewel)
-Pride (The Wizard)

I'll also have to take a look at this "Possesed Statue" you mentioned, to see if it changes depending on the Mistress that has been chosen.

That's not an easter egg that is obvious lore and Christian religion/mythology

All of the Seven Heroes (8 if you count the Third Overlord) were corrupted by the Wizard aka the Second Overlord, how do you corrupt a hero saving the world, give them the deadly sin it's that simple

Well, in the Raising Hell edition, when you're in the last abyss, Gnarl makes a comment about the labyrinth and a goblin king, which is an obvious reference to the movie Labyrinth.
