='''Events'''=
----
=='''Campfire Event'''==
[[File:Stumpsreturningnightmares.PNG|thumb|170x170px|The two stumps leading to the campfire event.]]
This event is located in the forest, near where the Warlock effect is found.
 
Follow the instructions to get to the forest detailed in the Warlock effect. Once there, head either east or west from the dark purple exit (the map loops horizontally only) and walk through a pair of tree stumps. Once there, head north and interact with the campfire.
 
 
 
=='''Priest Event'''==
''This event requires the '''[[#Switchblade|Switchblade]]''' to activate it.''
 
Enter the middle-right door to the Red Lamps World. Head directly south from the entrance, and turn right. This should lead you to a building surrounded by lamps. Enter it. In the Red Lines District, follow the road until you reach a building with a brown-haired NPC walking nearby. Go into the building. Go right down the hall into the Church.
 
To activate the event, use the '''Switchblade''' on the Priest or the book. This event resets every dream.
 
=='''Mansion NPC Event'''==
Enter the bottom-left door in the Streetlights world. Head east or west (the route loops), and turn up where the road lines turn away from each other (one leading down, the other leading up). Interact with the 3 road signs. Continue north & interact with the signs again, then head west. Head north and enter the mansion.
 
Once inside, continue north until the path splits. Enter the door on the left, then enter the second door to the left. Interact with the NPC to activate the event.

=='''School Event'''==
''This event will trigger once the '''[[#School_Uniform|School Uniform]]''' memory is collected.''
 
After exiting the room where the school uniform is located, an NPC will walk away from the door straight across from the uniform room. To enter the room the NPC left, you need to find the combination to a bloodied locker at the eastern end of the second floor hallway. This is located in the girl's restroom.
[[File:Bloodiedlockerreturningnightmares.PNG|thumb|220x220px|The locker that needs to be unlocked.]]
 
The girl's restroom is on the second floor, behind the upper right set of double doors. Inside is an NPC facing north towards the wall. Above her is the locker combination.
 
Once the combination is entered into the locker, Akira will obtain a '''Bloody Key'''. Use it on the door with the blood trail coming from it to finish the event.
 
===''School Event Extra''===
Once the previous event is complete, Akira has a one in 3 chance of encountering another event when he walks through the door he opened in the first part. If the event doesn't trigger the first time, he can leave the room and re-enter to try again.
 
=='''Butcher Event'''==
''This event changes depending on whether you have obtained the '''[[#Switchblade|Switchblade]]''' memory, and can be accessed with or without the '''[[#Ink|Ink]]''' memory, but is easier with it.''
 
This event is located in the Alleyway City on the way to the '''Gang Uniform''' & '''Menu Shop'''. Follow the instructions to get to the Alleyway City as detailed in the Gang Uniform or Menu section. Once at the city, head east or west (the map loops) and enter the door with the sign next to it.
 
Once inside, head behind the counter. There's a 1 in 3 chance of the counter being open. If you have the '''Ink''' memory, you can shrink under the counter even if the counter is closed. You can also exit and re-enter the room to open the entrance. Once behind the counter, enter the back door, then continue on the path until you encounter the room the event is in.
 
=='''Computer Message Event'''==
Enter the flashing door to the Neon World. Go left once then go up once, and enter the blue doorway. Interact with any of the computers in the Pastel Computers world aside from the glitched one. After that, interact with them again. There's a 1 in 12 chance that the message will change when you interact with it, so you can keep interacting with it until it activates.
 
=='''Nightmare Room'''==
After entering the dream world 6 times, this event will play automatically.
 
=='''Mirror Event (Demo Ending)'''==
Collect all 12 Memories and wake up. Interact with the mirror in Akira's room and watch the cutscene.

To activate the event, use the Switchblade on the Priest or the book. This event resets every dream.

After exiting the room where the school uniform is located, an NPC will walk away from the door straight across from the uniform room.
