Trivia

 * The tooltip is a reference to Castlevania II: Simon's Quest, in which the game would show the same text whenever it became night. The name of the item comes from a track in Castlevania II known as Bloody Tears.


 * The tooltip may also be a reference to the game “The Binding of Isaac”, in which an ability named the “Whore of Babylon” displays the same text as the tooltip, while also converting the player’s shootable tears into blood.
