The Girl (escape)
- Chapter
- 2 · Care Center: Arrival
- Where
- Care Center, 2F: Prep Room, Nurses' Station, Nurses' Corridor and Room 201. Your refuge is Room 203, where Grace wakes up.
Weak point
None in this encounter: Grace has no weapon. Light and silence are your only defence.
Not a fight, an escape. The Girl (the "Shadow Ghost" in some guides) hunts by sound, won't enter lit rooms and moves through holes in the ceiling: falling dust and chains give her away, and she also drops out of vents. She appears at 4 fixed points: the Prep Room after the Lighter, the Nurses' Station when you move the cart, the Nurses' Corridor after the Screwdriver and Room 201 when you take the Fuse.
Careful: she breaks the lights as you progress (first Room 203's, then Room 201's), so safe rooms stop being safe.
Reward
The open door and the switch to Leon's section.
No published HP. Grace doesn't have the Requiem yet, so the Bring Out the Big Guns trophy waits for chapters 5 and 8. On Insanity she's faster and more aggressive. She can only be killed in chapter 8.
Step by step
- Prep Room (after the Lighter from Room 201): as soon as the cutscene ends, run back to Room 203 with its light on and wait for her to leave.
- Nurses' Station: pushing the cart to the Tool Box makes noise and draws her in. Hide under the small corner table until she leaves, then climb the cart and take the Screwdriver. On Standard (Classic) and Insanity there's an Ink Ribbon in a drawer behind a corpse.
- Hallway to Room 201: she camps it. Go back to Room 203, come out once she breaks the light, and throw an Empty Bottle far away to pull her off the hallway.
- Room 201: open the fuse box with the Screwdriver and take the Fuse. She drops from the ceiling in a cutscene: sprint without stopping to the fuse-less door left of the Horse Statue and insert the Fuse.
- Control switches to Leon. There's no way to stun or kill her in this chapter: don't take risks.
