The beginnings may be different — although these days they usually seem to start with a car crash — but each one ends in the same way, with the reveal that The Protagonist has been dead or dying all along, and that everything that has happened has been some kind of dream, or else a purgatorial cleansing of sins. The absolute end of the story may involve the protagonist dying, which can result in them entering Heaven, Hell, The Nothing After Death or just winking out of existence altogether if the writer doesn't believe in an afterlife (or just wants to leave the question open).
