In every difficulty mode, the lunch lady starts moving after a certain amount of time has passed away

On Normal Mode : 42s
On Hard Mode : 17s
On Insane Mode : Instantly

you can use this time on the normal difficulty to get the pages from much further hallways faster and safely and find the pages without the lady chasing you around


When the Lady Screams, she starts chasing a random player, however there a 2 types of Screams:

1. Page Induced Screams: These happen after you pick up a certain number of pages on each
difficulty. After the certain number of pages have been collected, the lady will scream and chase the person who has picked up the numbered page and every person who picks up the pages after that.

On Normal Mode : After the player or players have obtained 7/10 pages
On Hard Mode : After the player or players have obtained 4/10 pages
On Insane Mode: After the player or players have obtained 2/10 pages

Note: Every Page You Pick Makes The Lady Faster and More Aggressive

2. Timer Induced Screams : These happen after every 5 mins passes in game, the lady chooses and chases a random player.


1. Flashlight : The lady has a certain range to which she can spot you in the dark, however when your flashlight is turned on, she can spot you easily and from far away, since the flashlight increases the range to which she can spot you, so using the flashlight when the lady is near is not recommended.

2. Running

The Lunch Lady can hear you sprint, say if she is near you but hasn't spotted you, when you try to sprint, she will run towards the sound and investigate the area where you aggro-ed her, not your current location, considering you are hiding and not sprinting, in the case of you sprinting, she will keep running towards the direction of the sound and spot you/

On Every Difficulty, the lady chases you upto a certain amount of in game time considering you are hiding or still running

On Normal Mode : She Chases you for about 10-15 seconds
On Hard Mode : She Chases you for about 15-30 seconds
On Insane Mode: She Keep chasing you forever, since you can never outrun her

there are certain instances when you feel like the lady keep chasing you forever even in normal difficulty, that's not a bug, since the lady is faster now and you are still in her sight and can barely outrun her

3. Hiding

On Normal Difficulty, Stealth isn't a major requirement, since you can always outrun the lady and she would never be able to catch you until you end up getting yourself cornered.

However,
On Hard and Insane Difficulties, Stealth plays a huge factor since the lady can outrun and catch you.

When the lady spots you from far away/different floor or you pick up the pages that induce screams, you can always turn off your flashlight and crawl to the corner of the room(make sure to not press the sprint button). The lady would arrive at your location and try to investigate the area, move inside the room accordingly if you think you are about to be spotted.


1. You can start healing yourself as soon as the lady has bonked you, just hold the right click when her animation starts and after her animation ends, you can see yourself 75% healed.

2. If you do not want to hear her annoying scream when you get caught, just press escape (pause the game) right before her screaming animation starts, since this would pause the game during the cutscene and stop the screaming sound for your poor ears.

3. You Can Close the doors behind you while running from the lady to slow her down(also useful to troll your friends)

4. On Maps with Gym and Nets, a player can crouch under the nets and distract the lady while the other players search the school(make sure to not get hit by her throwing knife)

5. You can easily Avoid the Knife by moving left or right, you can hear a certain cutting sound right before she is about to throw a knife, so just move slightly towards left or right avoid getting hit.

6. For new players, Picking Up Notebooks after the scream induced pages have been reached should be avoided if she is right outside the door or in the same room, since she would spot you and run directly towards you.

7. You can see through most walls/doors in the game, just run towards them and you will be able to see whats behind, this is usually a speedrunning tac but you can use it to save time and the hassle to open every door.

8. Unlike some previous guides that state the pages are harder to find on higher difficulties, its a false statement, all pages can spawn only in certain areas and have the same RNG of being spawned despite the higher or lower difficulty.

9. You can Sometimes avoid her Screaming animation by running into a corner of a wall if you are about to be caught. (doesnt save you from being downed)
