I can't be there unfortunately but your tales have inspired me to share some of my own. I run a home grown setting where anything in this world can show up and everything gets mixed in.
I had a druid that wild shaped into something large I think it was a dire ferret or something, he stepped onto a floor trap that caused the floor to tilt and dump him into the pit below where he then triggered a fireball trap. Unknown to him, both traps reset. He just sat at the bottom of the pit thinking the fast healing ability he had would fix him, and his friends would get him out. Well they were working on getting him out but the fireball got him before they did. They wound up sweeping up his ashes.
There's a race in Ravenloft that has toxic skin, they poison with a touch and a kiss is deadly. The party was traveling through the mountains and came across a woman trying to get her bags out from under her dead horse. The paladin in the party rushed in to introduce himself, kissed her hand, barely passed his save and then they got attacked by her. (He still hasn't lived down the fact that he didn't bother detecting evil, he does it to every thing but beautiful women)
That night in camp they also encountered a half-fiend troll. The remains of which they threw in the campfire thinking that would keep it from regenerating. In the toxic woman's stuff they found a puzzle box which they had been playing with, I actually gave them a model of it so I could see what they were doing with it. When they touched it a certain way it opened unleashing Pinhead. Yes it was that puzzle box. They didn't see him but they had let Freddy Kruger out of his prison inside the box. They only had to deal with Pinhead if they couldn't figure out how to get Freddy back into the box within 7 days. When Pinhead left they turned around to discover the troll was back ready to fight in the campfire.
This is just a tiny bit of the stuff I've done, I've put nasty ooze monsters in the belly of their ship, had their ship hyjacked by a fluffy white dumpling thing, forced the paladin to choose a member of the party to die, destroyed their most powerful weapons (including a holy avenger), plagued them with intelligent kobalds, kidnapped PCs, and used a Majic Jar spell to posses the sorceress and had her attack the minotaur ranger (who is played by her husband) which wound up being a critical hit with her vorpal scimitar. I would never fit everything in. This is just the recent things from one game, and that game has been running for five years or so now.
