[SPOILERS] Been at it for hours, can't get basement laughter

[StonedMagician]

I can't get the damned doll laughter to trigger. I've looked at multiple guides, and done everything they've said, and can't get it. This is stopping me from finishing, and if I quit, I lose all progress. Any help possible?

Follow the guide exactly and DO NOT PICK UP ANY BULLET for the handgun, for some weird reason if you pick any bullet you can't get the last giggle with this method.

pick up the phone in the attic. it should trigger after that.

I opened the pot before watching the tape, and in the tape, opened the pot, microwave and fridge.

Without watching the tape (need it in your posession though), this has been working for me every single time, and it can be done pretty fast:

1.Get to the switch in the fireplace, get under the secret passage, get the fuse.

2.Place the fuse in the junction box in the living room.

3.Exit living room, make a right through the molded door, turn left and get the notebook inside the first drawer. Turn back.

3.Get the finger from the drawer just outside the kitchen, go through the kitchen down the hallway, get the bolt cutters, cut the chain, get the tape.

4.Go up the stairs, press the button, go upstairs again, turn right, get the basement key and celluloid object, examine writing on the wall (giggle 1).

5.Get down just before the kitchen, combine finger with celluloid object, point hand at bookcase (murder 1).

6. Turn back, upstairs and upstairs again, look at the boarded wall (giggle 2).

7. Downstairs and downstairs, turn right and go all the way to the basement. Get the lockpick, point hand at the corpse lying down (murder 2) and get valve handle (you won't use it, but need it). Sprint to the back room and get the attic window key, 180 turn and spint back to the door. Kick one of the hanging bodies to the monster and sprint to the door again. Kick it twice to break it. Exit. It doesn't matter if you get infected, you'll still be able to get the dirty coin.

8. Run to the kitchen, use the lockpick on the first drawer, get the hatchet, run back to the hooded lady picture, hit it with the hatchet (giggle 3).

9. Go to the compartment under the stairs and use the hand on the boarded up door (murder 3).

10. Just outside, look at the mirror and do a 180 quickturn (giggle 4).

11. Left, upstairs and upstairs, point at the cables over the bed (murder 4).

12. As you exit examine both the photograph (turn it and examine the writing too), and pick up the phone (on previous versions of the demo, there was a lady on the other side, this must be the connection to the ghost lady seen on the vhs and that's why this works too to get the last giggle).

13. Run downstairs all the way to the basement and look at the doll on the ground, crouch if you have to (giggle 5).

14. Run at the kichen and use the hand on the stew pot. No need to lift the lid (murder 5).

15. Go upstairs and upstairs, turn right, and make a right again to the door next to the initial writing on the wall. It is now covered in blood. Open it.

16. Inside, examine the writing on the chair and pick up the dirty coin (you'll hear a monochannel loud giggle).

17. Exit through the attic window.

18. You're the best ever!

would not ever work for me either until i went thru the VHS tape and seen the lady ghost,
then worked!

Ignore the lies people are spreading. The phone does not ring for the Steam version! It was removed for us (boring endings anyway, look them up). Again, people are lyingg about bullets - I had to do this run through twice as I forgot the pick up the coin in the first place.
You can only try 2 things. Rewatch the video and see the ghost girl OR restart. I had the same issue with the second giggle, nothing would work on my 2nd playthrough and I had to restart it. This issue, I believe was, the lights went out in the basement when I killed the Molded. This has NEVER happened to me before, so not sure why others say it happens all the time.
Sorry, the demo is buggy but I love it so lol.

^ WRONG. I have done this twice with collecting bullets to kill the Molded with the handgun.

WRONG. We don't have the phone calls in the PC version.

With the VHS method yes you can pick up bullets, not with the phone method :)

And yeah the phone isn't ringing in the Midnight version BUT it triggers the last giggle.

*edit*
And before calling people liars, watch the video in my guide or watch the video from Carcinogen (a famous speedrun, maybe you'll trust him more than me...), he's using the phone method to speedrun the demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ao6LNwN64QQ
YOU DO NOT NEED TO WATCH THE VHS FOR THE COIN. It's still a valid method of course but it's not the only one :)

[MRKitano]

Nice, you don't need the valve handle and examining the photo. Even better. :)

actually you don't need to see a ghost. you just need to before watching the tape, open the pot, and while in the tape, open pot, fridge and microwave. then after the tape, read the note

I had the same problem, tried different ways and no final giggle. So I tried crouching by the doll and swung my hatchet at the doll, low and behold it triggered the giggle.
