1. Never open a glowing door.
2. Running never works- you will undoubtedly trip and the chaser will still catch you while walking.
3. Going upstairs never works- you will only trap yourself.
4. Do NOT lock the doors- you WILL lock the killer inside with you
5. If you get close enough, take off the mask- this won’t help you survive but it will answer some questions and possibly give you closure.
6. Always look up when you enter a room- if you don’t there will be something waiting in the rafters, possibly on the fan.
7. If there’s an over-sized, ancient looking book- keep it closed.
8. If there’s a witch, befriend the cat. If there’s no cat, befriend Billy Butcherson.
9. Don’t look in the mirror after you’ve looked away- there will be someone else’s reflection when you look up. This will get you every time.
10. If you’re black- none of this will help.
11. The only weapon that actually works is a wire coat hanger- a knife always gets knocked out of your hand and a gun always runs out of bullets- and you will have missed your target.
12. Never, I repeat NEVER admit to being the Key Master.
13. If you get scared and start to cry, wipe your nose.
14. Never turn out the lights.
15. If the lights go out on their own, get under the covers and stay there until it’s over.
