Uhhh The Ghost Lady can't enter safe houses can she?

Started having the convo with Oneil about the marrow and gas leaks when I hear this humming sound during the dialogue. She's outside the safe room door. And close enough to make the screen static

That's really strange, don't suppose you managed to record it? It sounds like people have been seeing more bugs since the patch

[halo_xe]

No I didnt unfortunately. It was right when I loaded the game too, so it wasnt like I entered a random encounter with her then ran inside the safe room. Screen didnt have that blue hue to it either. When I actually went outside and circled the building, there was no trace of her.

That's pretty neat but it would have scared the hell out of me lmao. She's one of the best parts of the game imo, even though she's always scripted. I remember the first time I played through I quickly became scared of going into any building for fear of getting locked in and having to deal with her

Unless it'd be some rare and obscure easter-egg this is 99.99% impossible. All of her appearances are scripted sequences.

Wrong. EVERY encounter with her is scripted. Every single one. She never shows up randomly, and only appears a set number of times in the area with O'neal's safehouse.

Yeah that happens to me as well, it was exactly as you described no static no blue hue she was just outside but she was not able to enter. i can clearly hear her like she was 5 meters outside the house

Also for the rest of the people i want to confirm based on my playtrough she CAN spawn randomly in the city after the first encounter , some parts of her events are scripted but she can spawn randomly in the fist city as it happend to me like 4-5 times i believe

That's not incompatible as with "randomly" I meant to refer to the spatial coordinates where she appears outside. These seem to be somewhat related to where you are and thus could explain how her area of effect might affect the safehouse (without her being actually able to enter).

I'm on my third playthrough and every single time she always spawned near the same two areas- sort of near the mansion to the east, and near the second safehouse. The one near the second safehouse she ALWAYS spawned right after the car starts beeping.
*Edit* Actually, I was watching Markiplier play it and his two encounters were in the same place as mine. Also in my first playthrough I died when she spawned outside because I thought I could sneak in the bush but she found me lmao (didn't realize I had to run). So when I came back I ran the same way and she spawned in the exact same place.

Anyways, there's no time that she just "appears", there's always that flash of white that despawns all other enemies in the area and the screen turns blue, with her music. So for OP it sounds like a bug, this game isn't short of them

I think it could be deliberate on the developer's part. I've heard that unnerving humming in that safehouse more than once across a couple playthroughs.

Just to clarify, ANIMA (The ghost lady) has scripted encounters BUT after the first encounter she has the ability to randomly manifest through the game.....sometimes alit, sometimes very seldomly, I think it has to do with difficulty.....and all you have to do is run from her until she dissappear....don't care who believes this or not because it dont change the FACTS that Anima can amd does spawn randomly outside of her scripted encounters....all of the places I have encountered her beside scripted ones inside of buildings have been in different spots each each time and different from places earlier commenters have said.......she's not really a threat so far....just run
