I.  Introduction
-----------------
Fatal Frame has long been my favorite series in the survival horror genre.
This new installment though further blurs the line between reality and the
'other world' as this game tends to refer to it.
I will warn you ahead of time; this guide will contain MAJOR SPOILERS for the
endings of Fatal Frame and Fatal Frame II: Crimson Butterfly.

II.  Story

Rei Kurosawa has been having some weird dreams lately.  Ever since she visited
that abandoned house and saw the ghost of her dead fiance Yuu Asou, she has
been dreaming of a strange manor .. a manor inhabited by Yuu.. and a
strange woman with tattoos all over her body.  During her explorations of the
manor, the woman touches her, and when she wakes, she feels a stabbing pain
where the woman touched her as a blue-and-purple tattoo begins to spread
over her skin..

IV. Walkthrough
--------------------
A)  Hour I:  The Sign
Character:  Rei Kurosawa
[OPENING SEQUENCES]
NOTE:  Any pictures taken with your regular camera only count as point
bonuses.
After the opening cutscenes, the screen goes black and white.  Walk through
the courtyard and through the double doors.  Snap a picture through the
partition of Turned Back Man (500 pts).  Walk around the left side and
you'll see Beckoning Yuu (500 pts) going down the hall.  Don't bother going
up the stairs; at this time there is nothing up there but a random encounter
with a nasty ghost, so just follow Yuu down the hall.
Wandering Mother & Wandering Daughter will appear in the room on your left as
you walk by.  They are worth 2000 points apiece or 4000 points altogether, but
they are difficult to get.  (I know of two methods to capture them.  The first
one is going into finder mode then inching past the 'door' while facing the
room.  When the ghosts appear, immediately step back to the left and snap the
picture.  The second method is to face forward but quickly tap the analog
stick so Rei backsteps without turning around, and snap the picture that way.)
Follow the corridor around and keep a watch for Lattice Woman (500 pts)
through the lattice on the left side of the screen.  Continuing on will win
you a meeting with a big ghost with an even bigger bloody cleaver known as
the Hidden Face Man.  Do not try to fight him.
Keep running down the corridor until you see the exit.  (If for some reason he
manages to kill you, it's not permanent.  You will just appear in the next
area.)  Yuu will enter a door on the other side of the area, so walk to the
left and follow him.  As you pass the left corridor Girl In Hallway (500 pts)
pops up and asks Rei to 'Stay.. forever'.  If you turn back around and go past
the right corridor, another Girl in Hallway will appear for another 500
points.
Continue to the double door that Yuu went through, then open it.  Cross the
Shrine Courtyard and snap a picture of Disappearing Yuu (500 pts) as he
goes through the door. Try to follow Yuu through that last door.  That will
trigger a cutscene..
You will start out in a small corridor.  To the left is a locked gate
requiring a Notched Arrow key to open.  Walk down the hall.  The last chest on
the right contains an Herbal Medicine.  Go up the left side first to enter the
Partitioned Room.  Be prepared as Study Woman (2000 pts) walks past the window
on the right as you enter.  She is easier to capture after you get the sense
function upon beating the game.  The best method I've found to catch her is
to walk into the room but don't go too far in - inch along the wall to the
left, face the window, and sidestep until she appears.  Then very quickly
snap her picture.  (The Sense function makes it easier as it aims the camera
right at her.)
You can pick up the Memo in Shaky Hand a few sections up, but
as the other exit is sealed, exit the Partitioned Room again and take the
other hallway.
As you turn the corner in the right corridor Daughter at Door (500 pts) will
appear in front of the door.  Snap her picture and enter the 1F Hearth.  Climb
the short staircase onto the hearth platform and turn to the left for a
picture of the Wandering Mother & Daughter (1000 pts).  They only appear for
an instant, so you have to be quick.
The door at the top of the ladder is locked with the Bellflower Key, and the
northern ground-level door is shut tight, so the only way to go is up the
stairs.  Be prepared to grab a picture of the 2nd Floor Woman (500 pts) as
she walks by the top of the staircase.  When you reach the top you'll
automatically acquire the Camera Obscura, your weapon against the ghosts.  Go
through the door on the other side of the room and walk around until you see
the peephole in the wall.  Peek through and grab the shot of Impaling Girl
(500 pts).  Someone will start crying afterwards - return to the lattice and
take the picture of Crouching Woman (1000 pts).  She will see you and will run
away.
When you go to exit the room Lattice Woman (1000 pts) will appear on the other
side of the lattice across from the entrance.  Take her picture then return to
the 1F Hearth.  Halfway down the stairs the Wandering Mother & Child (1000
pts) will appear again for a moment at the bottom of the stairs.  Try to leave
the Hearth room and they will attack you.
They move fairly quickly but if you drain one's health the other will
disappear as well.  Exit the room and start following the corridor back to
where you started.  As you turn the corner, your filament will glow red and
there will be a pair of legs visible.  Snap the picture of the Crouching
Woman (2000 pts) and approach for a cutscene ending with Rei's awakening.
Leave Rei's room and start downstairs.  Miku calls out a cheery 'good morning'
from downstairs, so go down and speak with her.  Miku will give you a letter
from Kei Amakura regarding a Camera Obscura he apparently mailed to Yuu before
his death.  After reading the letter, Rei decides to look for the camera, so
return upstairs to Yuu's room.  It is the door furthest back the hallway.
Upon entering, a short scene will trigger.  Once you are back in control,
inspect the shelf next to the foot of the bed to retrieve Yuu's Camera Obscura
and some undeveloped film.  Next check the desk for Yuu's Urban Legend
Notebook & the accompanying newspaper scrap describing the disappearance of a
mother and daughter.
After picking up the Notebook, you can check the bookshelf next to the desk
for a text on Occultism/the Camera Obscura.  Once you've collected these items
return to the lower level and go to the Darkroom.  Approach the rear of the
room and develop the film to receive the 'Crying Woman' photo.  Show the photo
to Miku and Rei will automatically ask her to research the woman in the photo.
You will then return to Rei's room at nighttime.  Go ahead and go to sleep and
for the second time you will return to the Manor of Sleep.
[NIGHT]
You'll start out in the same hallway as before.  If you've already taken the
Herbal Medicine out of the chest, it won't be there again.  As you approach
the end of the hall, Escaping Woman (1000 pts) runs by, and you have just a
moment to snap the photo.  Do not follow her immediately but instead return
to the Hearth Room.  Collect the Herbal Medicine from under the stairs then
climb them.  Partway up the stairs, Daughter Downstairs (500 pts) appears
underneath you.  Take her picture then exit and return to the Partitioned
Room.
If you didn't already, go through the partitioned room until you find the
Memo in Shaky Hand and continue to the right.  Check the floor by the ladder
to the left for a roll of Type-14 film, then continue right until you reach
the door to the 1F Stairs Hallway.  As soon as you approach the stairs the
woman you've been chasing will appear at the top of them; again, you must be
fast to catch her.  There is a save lantern to the left of the entry door.
Take advantage of it then go up the stairs.
Walk to the right to see a door blocked by a presence.  Snap the picture to
show you underneath a set of stairs.  Walk left past the first set of stairs
and take the second set down.  At the foot of the stairs is the Alarm function
for your camera, which makes it easier to identify a shutter moment and thus
score a fatal frame/combo.  Continue around to the right until you see a
bloody patch on the floor and wall.  Look for the area where your filament
glows the brightest and point your camera at it until a ghost becomes visible.
Take the picture of the Man Stopped Dead to release the seal on the upstairs
door.  You can also inspect the short door on the right wall to get an
additional note for your file; however, the door is locked with a Four Point
Well Key symbol, and inaccessible for now.
When you return to the second floor, take the stairs leading up one floor.
There is a door you cannot open at this time but right across from that door
is a small box containing some Type-61 film.
Return to the newly unsealed door and go through into the Room with Blind.
Walk around and enter the Elegant Tatami room you could see through the screen
when you entered.  Crouching Woman (500 pts) is on the floor, seemingly
oblivious to your presence.  Take her photo then enter the screen next to her.
Collect the Type-61 Film from the drawer in the back of the screened-off area,
then approach the Crouching Woman and try to talk to her.  She'll ignore you,
so just pick up the Burnt Passport at her feet and try to leave.  The woman
will beg Rei to wake her up, then Rei will awaken once again in the real
world.
Walk downstairs to find a note from Miku on the kitchen counter, then as you
try to leave the living room, the phone will ring.  It's Miku, with news about
the woman in the photo - she has been identified as Yoshino Takigama, the only
survivor of a plane crash.  There will be another cutscene, then once again
it's time to get some sleep.  You can talk to Miku before you go to sleep and
she will comment that the woman just 'disappeared'.
[NIGHT]
...and back to the Manor we go...
To get some extra points as well as some additions to your Ghost List, return
to the 2nd Floor Corridor (the door up the stairs from 1F Hearth) and look
through the lattice where you originally saw the Crouching Woman.  There are
now three black shadows surrounding the woman.  If you do it right you should
be able to get three pictures of the Encircling Shadow & the Tormented Woman
(500 pts each; 1500 pts total).
Go to the left again.  There is another Film-14 next to the ladder in the
Partitioned Room. When you climb the stairs you'll see three black Bending
Shadows (500 pts ea; get all three in one shot for 1500 pts) going through the
door you unsealed on the previous night.
Follow them.  When you get to the Room with Blind, the shadows will attack
Yoshino.  Dispatch them, and once they are gone Yoshino will attack you!  I
found if you can pull off a combo shot or two she'll go down fairly easily.
Watch out though because the black shadows will continue to respawn as long
as Yoshino is attacking.  As soon as you defeat her, Rei will once again wake.
When she goes downstairs, Miku will hand her Yoshino's diary, and then it's
nighttime again.  Go ahead and go to sleep.
B)  Hour II:  The Manor of Sleep
Character:  Rei Kurosawa
[NIGHT]
This time Rei wakes up in the Room with Blind, where she fought Yoshino.
Where Yoshino had been crouching a Four Point Well Key now rests.  Collect it
then try to leave the room.  Yoshino will attack you again.  This time she
respawns the black shadows, so the best tactic is to hit her as often and as
fast as you can.  Don't stay still for too long but focus on her and she
should go down quickly.
As you're leaving you'll hear voices behind you - inspect the screen then
exit the room.  Backtrack towards the stairs and you will see a man going
down the stairs.  (I'm not certain if he can be caught on film.)  Then as you
approach the staircase to the 3F Storeroom, the Man Upstairs (500 pts) will
appear at the top.
Return to the second staircase leading down and unlock the small door next to
where Man Stopped Dead was.  This leads to the Stained Corridor.  Turn right
and aim the camera at the blue glowing spot on the wall (alternately, the
hand sticking out of the wall within the glowing spot, as long as the capture
circle turns blue).  The resulting picture will have to be developed in the
real world.  Continue around the corridor and enter the short door for an
Herbal Medicine.  The passage beyond is too narrow for Rei to squeeze through,
so go back to the Stained Corridor and continue around to the last set of
doors.  They lead to the Grave Courtyard.
There is another blue glowing spot off to the right, above the graves.  Take
the shot.  It is yet another to be developed when you wake.  The door on the
other side of the Courtyard is locked with a Two Mandarins Key.  Before
leaving the Courtyard, inspect the well by the entrance.  Point your camera
at it and be prepared for Lurking Woman (1000 pts) to pop out!
Return through the Stained Corridor.  Run through this area because as you
turn the last corner a Man in White will come out of the wall's stain and
attack.  If you're running it's likely he'll miss when he lunges out of the
wall; if you're walking he'll almost certainly grab you.  There are two of
them so just be careful not to let them get behind you and watch your filament
for their direction at all times.
Once the Men in White are vanquished, they will leave behind the Sleeping
Stone.  This is the part of the puzzle needed to open the door in the 3rd Fl
Storeroom.  Exit the Stained Corridor through the short door you originally
entered and climb the stairs.  Take the stairway leading up.  When you reach
the top of the stairs Escaping Man will appear briefly next to the door.
The puzzle on that door is fairly simple.  Move the stone in the bottom right
one space to the left.  Move the upper right one down two spaces.  Move the
upper left stone down one space and right two spaces.  This will unlock the
door and let you on to the roof.
Take a few steps towards the bottom of the screen until your filament appears.
Point the camera to the left and look for the capture circle to turn blue.
Take the shot for the picture of Inverted Woman (1000 pts).  Then cross the
roof in the other direction and enter the short door.  WARNING:  If you linger
too long you will be attacked by a Man In White, and you CANNOT RUN on the
roof!
Inside the room you will find the Two Mandarins Key and the Evade function.
Immediately after you pick them up a Man in White will appear directly behind
you.  Defeat him then check the sliding panel propped up at the back of the
room to move it.  There is a door of sorts in the floor but it is temporarily
stuck shut.
Cross the roof back to the original door.  Yuu will enter the locked door
in the Courtyard - so return there and follow him.  When you unlock the door
you will see Yuu and then Rei will wake suddenly.
Collect the Musty Film out of the Camera Obscura and head downstairs.  The
phone is ringing.  Answer it and Miku tells you that she has obtained some
information for you and you should go get it off her desk.  Go develop your
film first; on the way back the screen will turn grainy and there will be a
dark shadow in the Altar Room.  You can take the picture for 500 points but
it does not show up on your spirit list.
Go upstairs and collect the information off Miku's desk as well as a photo of
her and Mafayu.
Night falls again, but before going to bed, speak with Miku to have her
research your photos, then it's bedtime again...
C.  Hour III:  The Subduing Song
Character: Rei Kurosawa
[NIGHT]
Rei will wake up in the Round Window Foyer and see Yuu walking down the Bell
Hallway.  Follow him and as you approach the intersection a Man in White will
attack you from the right side.  After you defeat him go to the left and
enter the Projection Room.  The "Impalement" film is on the projector, and
when you stop to watch it a girl appears behind you.  Grab her pic and pick
up the Folklore Notes 1 and the Track function from the bookshelf in the
corridor to the right of the screen.  A Type-14 film is also directly across
from it.
Go through the North door into the Barred Hallway.  Watch for the Woman Past
Bars, (500 pts) then there is an Herbal Medicine and a photo op in the alcove
on the left side.  The door at the end of the hallway leads to the Garden
Corridor. Take a shot of the blue mass in front of the tree for Girl Walking
Away.
Go down the steps and pick up the Stone Mirror next to them.  Climb back up
and go down the east corridor.  Walk down the short flight of steps.  Both
doors are sealed, but the short door is sealed with a talisman.  Snap a pic
of the door to see a Hammering Girl, then backtrack.  A Hidden Face Man will
attack as you approach the end of the corridor; dispatch him and take the
south hall to the 1F Closet Hallway.  There is a Type-61 film on the shelf by
the Noh mask and the Slow Lens is in the dresser next to the stairs.  Climb
the stairs to the 2F Closet Hallway - the 2nd Floor Woman (1000 pts) appears
as a vanishing ghost as you climb the stairs.  The door is locked, so turn
around and go back downstairs.
The short door is locked with a Dianthus design, so go back to the Grave
Courtyard via the Bell Hallway.  You should hear a child crying; the Hiding
Daughter is behind the graves.  Take her picture and return to the Room with
Tatami. Around the right side of the partitioned section there is a picture of
Hand Sucked into Floor (500 pts).  There is a Type-61 film in the closet on
the left side of the door (as you enter).
Take the corridor next to the stairs to collect the Type-14 film from the
'room' to your left.  Both doors in this corridor are sealed so turn right
back around and climb the stairs.  In the chest with the rust-colored cloth
hanging out you will find a Sacred Water.  Go back downstairs and walk down
the short stairwell and around the partitioned area.  Undo the sliding lock
on the double doors to regain access to the 1F Hearth Room.
In the Hearth Room, collect the Herbal Medicine under the stairs then go
upstairs to find the source of the child's crying.  Stand by the chest across
from the door and aim behind the kimonos to find her.  Once you take her
picture she will attack you.  Defeat her, then go back to the Partitioned Room
to take a picture of the Wandering Mother as a vanishing ghost.
Return to the 2F Stairs Hallway and a ball will drop down the stairs leading
to the 3F Storage Room.  Climb the stairs and turn to the left to snap a pic
of the Hiding Daughter.  She should leave behind a note.
Then backtrack to the Room with Blind where you fought Yoshino.  Approach the
cabinet on the far side of the room and notice that the doll that was on the
floor when you fought her is sitting up on the shelf.  Pull out your camera
and point it at the doll, and Woman Crashing will appear.
Return to the Partitioned Room on the first floor and you will be attacked by
the Wandering Mother again.  Fight her off and you will receive more musty
film to be developed later.  Go back to the 2F Hearth Room and go through the
door to where you saw the Hammering Girls earlier.  Take a picture through the
peephole and return to the Room with Tatami.  Woman Brushing will attack.
Defeat her and return to the Garden Corridor.  The door that was sealed before
is now open.  There is a young Shrine Maiden in front of the altar.  Take her
picture and collect the Bellflower Key from the altar.  The Shrine Maiden will
attack you - once you defeat her, pick up the Gray Diary 1 and Rei will wake.
Speak to Miku then go develop the film.  A letter will arrive through the mail
slot, and it contains the cassette The Manor of Sleep A.  Nighttime falls;
before going back to bed talk to Miku, listen to the cassette, then talk to
her again to ask her to research the photos.
Then go to sleep again.
D.  Hour IV:  The Evil Dream
Character:  Miku Hinasaki
[NIGHT]
Miku starts out in a very familiar place:  the foyer of Himuro Mansion.  There
is an Herbal Medicine behind the screens by the save point but it can only be
reached from the left side.  Enter the doors to the left to access the Rope
Hallway.  At the end of the hallway, Miku will automatically stumble across
the Camera Obscura in the same place it was in the original game.
Turn left and enter that door to reach the Great Hall.  Search the Great Hall
for a Type-61 film and a door locked with another 'Sleeping Stone' puzzle.
When you try to exit out the door you entered, a Hidden Face Man (aka the
ghost with the big cleaver) will attack.
When he is defeated he drops the Simulacrum Mask and the Sacred Stone Amulet.
Miku cannot use special lenses for the Camera Obscura, so the Sacred Stone
Amulet is her version of the Slow lens.  Return to the foyer (and I highly
recommend saving before you move on).  Take a picture of the seal on the main
doors to see another very familiar sight, then walk to the right and hang the
Simulacrum Mask on the door there.  It will morph into the Angry Mask and the
door will open.
(Note to anyone who has played the original game - No, you're not seeing
things.  This game takes TREMENDOUS liberties with the layouts of both Himuro
Mansion and All Gods' Village.. )
The door leads to the Preserve Room (aka the Fish Tank Room in the original)
and yes, there is another annoying battle inside.  The Brushing Woman will
attack and since there is VERY little room to move my best suggestion is
to stay out of Finder mode until you're CERTAIN which direction she's coming
from.
Defeat her to earn a Twilight Stone, which, conveniently enough, is part of
the puzzle on the door to the next room..
To complete this puzzle follow these steps.
Move the upper right stone one space to the upper left.
Move the bottom stone to the upper right.
Move the left stone to the bottom.
Move the right stone to the left.
Move the upper left stone to the right.
Move the bottom stone to the upper left.
This should unlock the door and grant you access to the Holding Cell.  You can
get a picture of a young girl through the bars of the cell, then enter it to
collect the Crimson Diary off the desk.  Exit through the double doors to
access the Rope Palace - the sacrificial altar depicted when you took a
picture of the front door's seal.
A cutscene will occur and Miku will be attacked by a shrine maiden.  She has
very long reach, so my suggestion is to stay as far out of her range as you
can but still close enough to pull off a combo.  If she catches you she will
string you up for a moment, but in general if you keep moving you should be
able to take her out.
Miku refuses to go any further so turn around and go back the way you came.
If you try to exit Himuro Mansion out the front doors, which are now open, a
shrine maiden appears to the left and beckons Miku, saying 'Your brother is
there'.  Follow her back through the door into the Rope Hallway.  Take her
picture at the end of the hallway to get Beckoning Girl, then follow her
to the right.
The door is now open; when you go through Miku will finally be in the Manor of
Sleep Room with Tatami.  Turn right at the first opportunity and take the
picture of the Beckoning Girl (again), but DON'T follow her immediately.
Turn left instead and go into the Hall with Tatami.  The hand is still
sticking out of the narrow passage where it was before; snap its picture for
Hand From Hole (500 pts).  The other doors in the room are sealed so go back
down the hallway and follow the girl through the door to the Blind Room.
A large tent covers an area in the center of the room.  Upstairs there isn't
much of interest other than a bookcase in the rear of the room that is too
heavy for her to move, so return to floor level.  As you pass the stairs
leading down, Girl at Door (500 pts) will appear.  Grab her picture and follow
her through the door.  There is a young girl in a hanging cage there..
And Miku's first section is complete.
When control returns to Rei, talk to Miku until she gives you Kei's picture
and tells you a letter is on the counter for you.  Go downstairs and you will
see a pair of legs in the closet.  It's impossible to get this picture because
the legs disappear as soon as you raise your camera, so just pick up the
Letter from Kei 4.
Night falls again, but before you go to bed, search Yuu's desk for the Letter
from Kei 5 and the tapes Manor of Sleep B and The Same Dream 1.  Also inspect
the bookcase for 'Projecting the Other World' and 'Skewered Dolls and
Mountain Faiths".
Return to bed.
E.  Hour V:  Vanishing
Character:  Kei Amakura
[NIGHT]
Kei starts out hiding in the alcove off the Barred Hallway.  The Tattooed
Woman is walking by.  Wait until she passes by you and run to the right.  You
will see Mio to the left at the end of the hallway; follow her to the door
locked with a Butterfly Key.
Turn around and cross the hall to climb the stairs to 2F Barred Hallway.
There is an Herbal Medicine in the closet at the end of the hall.  Collect it
then go through the door to the Kimono Room.  Pick up the Purple Diary 1 from
behind the screen.
The staircase across from the screen leads to a set of sealed double doors,
THe short door next to the stairs leads to the 2F Round Window Foyer, but
there is nothing to do there yet.  A door sealed with another sleeping stone
puzzle is the only thing of interest there.
So walk to the other side of the row of kimonos and try to exit through the
door locked with the Holly Key.  The screen will go grainy; walk to the left
of the door and aim through the gap in the kimonos to get Woman Before Koto
(500 pts).
Then try to walk towards the vanity. Brushing Woman will notice you and start
walking back and forth in front of her vanity.  Make a run for it and grab
the HOlly Hairpin off the vanity, then run back to the Holly door as quickly
as you can.  It's pretty much inevitable that she will see you, so just move
as fast as possible.  Unlock the door and step into the 2F Closet Hallway and
she will stop chasing you for the moment.  Be careful as you go downstairs
that she doesn't see you across the balcony.
Enter the Bell Hallway through the southern door.  All the doors in the
hallway are sealed, so continue south towards the exit to the Grave Courtyard.
A man will appear behind the partition screen to the right.  Keep walking
towards the doors and the Tattooed Woman will appear again.  Hide behind the
partition the man was behind until Tattooed Woman passes you, then run back
down the Bell Hallway and turn right at the intersection.  Go through the door
to Hall with Tatami.  When you enter you will see a ghost walking up the
stairs; follow her.  She will be standing in front of a chest in the back.
Take the picture of the Secretive Old Woman (1000 pts) and she will attack.
Run past her and check the chest she was standing in front of to acquire the
Camera Obscura and the Folklore Notes 3.  Do not even BOTHER to try to fight
her; at this point in the game you can't inflict damage on her, so run back
down the stairs and down the corridor at the foot of the stairs.  Collect the
Type-14 film from the section next to the corridor.
The door to the Himuro Mansion section is temporarily sealed, so just take a
picture of the door at the end of the hall.  The seal on THAT door is
maintained by the Brushing Woman in the Kimono Room.
Return there and take the picture of the woman in front of her vanity to break
the seal, then you have to fight her.  She's very fast, and Kei's skill with
the Camera Obscura is nearly non-existent, so I would suggest spending a
minimum amount of time in Finder Mode.  Watch for her to appear and then go
into the Finder Mode so you can keep track of her more easily.
Return to the Hall with Tatami and you will be attacked by two Men in White.
After defeating them, go down the corridor towards the door you just unsealed.
You will have an opportunity to get a shot of the Disappearing Man.  Follow
him into the Blind Room and you will hear voices.  (There is a photo op
somewhere in the room but I haven't been able to find it yet.)
The door Miku went through earlier is sealed, so just climb the stairs.  The
Impalement Tome is on the first bookshelf at the top of the stairs.  Walk to
the back of the room - the "Piercing of Soul" film is on the floor to the left
and the Taboo Tome is on the bookshelf to the right.  Collect both items then
inspect the small bookcase in the center to move it.
Behind the bookshelves to the right is a small altar.  Inspect the altar for
the Butterfly Key and a clue to 'Put the Tome of Commandment on the altar'.
You can climb the ladder to the flickering room.  When you first enter the
room a vanishing ghost appears to the right, through the gap.
I would suggest you linger only if you have full health, full healing items
and a lot of film as there is a high probability that you will be attacked by
a Needle Woman, and Kei's power simply isn't high enough to take her down
quickly at this point.
If you do decide to explore the room, a Type-90 film waits on the other side,
but if you don't, Rei can pick it up on the next night.
Either way, as you're leaving the Kuze Family Head will attack you again.  You
still can't defeat her, but she likes to block the stairwell, so you need to
lure her further into the library then run past her down the stairs and out
the door.
You also may want to take a detour to the Projection Room at the opposite end
of the Bell Hallway.  Kei can snap a picture of the Projector Woman on the
screen, then check the stack of books on the floor next to the left-hand side
of the bookshelf to get Folklore Notes 2.
The quickest way back to the Butterfly Door is through the Kimono Room; you
won't have to face Brushing Woman again so go through the door on the other
side of the line of kimonos (that will return you to the 2F Barred Hallway).
Run down the stairs and across again, then up the little stairwell to reach
the Butterfly door.  Unlock it and you will see Mio inside in a cell.
Rei wakes up immediately afterward, but it's still nighttime.  Leave her room
and you'll hear noise coming from Yuu's room.  Go into Yuu's room and check
the closet.  From there, go into the attic for a cutscene...
Then Rei wakes up for REAL this time.
Go downstairs and walk towards the darkroom to see the cat bristling and
staring at something in the altar room.  Go inside and check the closet to
find the Unknown film.  (Then for fun, go check the closet with the cleaning
supplies down the hall from the darkroom..)
Once you're done exploring the house, go to Yuu's room and enter the attic
like you did in your dream.  The Spirit Stone Radio and instructions are in
the same place they were in your dream...and once you collect them, it's
time to go back to bed.
F.  Hour VI:  The Sacrificial Pillars
Character:  Rei Kurosawa
[NIGHT]
You wake up in the Doll Altar East that you ended up in last time.  When you
exit, the door to the right is sealed, so walk out of the corridor and around
to the right.  You will see Yuu entering the door by the save point, and if
you're quick enough you can get a picture of him.  Either way, follow him and
take a picture of the door.  Return the way you came and a priest will appear
next to the tree.  The capture circle flickers blue so the best way to catch
this picture is to aim slightly to the left (which would be behind the priest)
and snap his picture when he starts walking towards where you're aiming.  That
will produce more film to be developed in the real world.  Continue walking
around the Garden Corridor until you reach the door to the 1F Closet Hallway.
You'll hear voices when you get close.
Follow the bloody trail behind the dresser and quickly snap a picture of the
man.  When he disappears pick up the "Sacrificial Pillars" film.  Exit into
the Bell Hallway.  As you approach the intersection several men will run by.
If you didn't do this already in the previous chapter, go to the Projector
Room first (to the right from where you came in) and snap a picture of the
Projector Woman on the screen, and collect the Type-14 film from the alcove.
Don't linger or the Priestess Girl will attack you.
Return to the Bell Hallway and check the door the blood leads to.  It's sealed
of course.  NOTE:  YOU MUST CHECK THE DOOR TO TRIGGER THE NEXT PART.  Start
walking back and a ghost will appear above to show you the way.  Go through
the Kimono Room and into the short door leading to the 2F Round Window Foyer.
As you walk across the beams, a Priestess Girl will attack you.  Since you
can't run on the beams, move as quickly as you can across them until you
reach the wider platform at the back.  That will give you more mobility.  Once
she is defeated she leave behind Sleeping Stone (2).
Now you have the means to unlock the door on the right side of the room.  Walk
down the beams on the right until you reach the door.  Then move the right
stone down one then left one.  Move the middle stone right one.  Move the
bottom left stone up one and right one.  Move the upper stone left one and
down one.  Move the bottom stone left one.  This should unlock the door.
Pick up the "Commandment" film off the floor then look through the peephole.
Go into finder mode to snap a picture of the priest in the ceremony room.
Exit the room.  As you're returning down the narrow hallway to the Kimono Room
a priest will appear to the right near the door.
Continue through the Kimono Room and exit out into the 2F Closet Hallway.
(OPTIONAL:  Go through the door to the Barred Hallway first.  Go to the first
floor and look around the hole in the roof for Child in Snow.)
Follow the blood to the closet to be attacked by a Man in White.  Take the
Herbal Medicine from the closet and return to the Bell Hallway.  When you
get to the intersection more ghosts run across your path, but this time, you
can take their pictures.. then they will attack!  Kill them and follow the
blood to the door to the Room with Tatami.
Upon entering the Room with Tatami the clock will chime loudly and you will
be attacked by an Engraved Man.  These are essentially more powerful versions
of the Men in White, and can be dodged fairly easily.  Once you've defeated
him, one of the seals dissolves and you get Moriya Tome 1 and Rei's Flash
ability.
If you haven't already, now might be a good time to go into the Blind Room,
collect the respawning Herbal Medicine from behind the screen, and go up
into the Flickering Room to grab your Type-90 film.  All other doors in that
room are sealed so return via the Bell Hallway to the Grave Courtyard.  A
ghost will appear up and to the left so grab that picture and enter the
stained corridor.  Check next to the well for a Sacred Water, then go through
the corridor and exit by the Northwest door leading to the 1F Stairs Hall.
As soon as you exit the door you will be attacked by another Engraved Man.
Defeat him using the same tactics as before and you'll receive Moriya Tome 2.
As you climb the stairs you'll hear voices - it sounds like Yoshino.  You can
go back to the Room with Blind you fought her in for another chance to fight
her, or you can just go to the Partitioned Room.  If you're looking at the
map, there is a Type-14 film in the second section on the left side of the
map.  In the last section of the room on the right, take a shot through the
gap in the partition to quiet the voices.`
From here, you have two choices.  When you enter the 1F Foyer a Man in White
will attack you.  After defeating him, you can continue down the hall towards
the exit for Engraved Man #4 or you can do them in order.  If you decide to
go kill the one in the Foyer first, he appears behind you briefly before
attacking.
Just remember that the narrow space makes it easier for him to attack you.
Keep your distance and keep hitting him.  When you're done with him, go back
up to the second floor.  There is a door under the stairs heading to the 3F
Storage, but it's not marked on the map.  It should be open at this point.  Go
inside for an interesting experience...
Once you're done with that, return to the 1F Hearth.  A little girl will
appear at the top of the ladder leading up to the Bellflower Door, so grab her
picture and climb the ladder.  You will hear a child giggling - go back down
the ladder and climb the steps, then turn around and aim straight across to
catch the Peeping Woman.  (Again, I know there is a second picture at this
point but I was unable to find it my first time through.)
Return to the Bellflower Door and enter it. Take a picture of the Peeping Girl
then check the desk for the Sleeping Stone (3) and the Blast Lens.  Check the
dresser behind the desk for a Type-90 film, then peer through the peephole.
Take the picture through the peephole then go down the stairs on the east side
of the room.  There is a Type-14 film under the platform and a sealed door
at the base.
Return to Himuro Mansion.  The quickest way would be to go through the double
doors in the 1F Hearth back to the Room with Tatami, then through the door
there.  There is an Herbal Medicine in the Foyer, and a stationary ghost in
the ceiling of the Rope Hallway.
Then go to the Great Hall and unlock the door with the sleeping stone puzzle.
To solve the puzzle, move the middle stone right one, then up one.  Move the
top left stone right one, down one, and right one.  Move the left stone right
one, up one, and left one.  Move the bottom middle stone up two.  Move the
bottom left stone right one, up one, left one.  Move the bottom right stone
left one and up one.
That door gives you access to the Futon Room.  You will fight one Engraved
Man and two Men in White.  When they're defeated you'll receive Moriya Tome 3.
Now that the seals are broken, return to the Spirit Tree Courtyard and try
to enter the double doors.  A Hidden Face Man will appear behind you and Rei
will wake up.  Walk downstairs and answer the phone - someone is screaming
into it.  If you walk down the hall towards the bathroom, you'll see feet
under the curtain.  If you're quick when you enter the bathroom your camera
should orient on the ghost as it goes past.
Exit the bathroom and walk to the darkroom to develop your film.  A girl is
sitting on the floor next to the developing table.  Take her picture to get
Woman on Feet (500 pts). Develop your film and go check on Miku.  She's
sleeping, so there is only one thing to do - since it's nighttime still, just
go back to bed.
G.  Hour VII:  The Hanging Prison
Character:  Miku Hinasaki
[NIGHT]
Miku starts in front of the altar from before.  There is a blue glow to the
right of the altar, which nets you more Musty Film.  Exit to the Blind Room.
As soon as you near the top of the stairs, point your camera toward the right
side of the tent in the middle of the room to capture Girl Behind.  There is
a respawning herbal medicine behind the screen in the corner to collect as
well.
Since the door leading to the Garden Corridor is sealed, go to the Hall with
Tatami.  The respawning Type-14 is in its usual spot in the large section off
the corridor.  Walk around the raised dais and you will hear a lullaby.
Squeeze through the narrow door near the floor.
Inside, you will find the Double ability for Miku.  As you follow the corridor
you will be attacked by a Crawling Woman.  She is very, very fast.  The only
way to beat her is to watch for her approach, pull up your camera and score a
Fatal Frame or Shutter Chance on her.  Nothing else hurts her very much.  I
found that one double-fatal frame-combo took her down in Normal mode.  Note:
once you beat her, whether here or later in the game, she gives you more Musty
Film to develop.  You can run from her if necessary by exiting the room.
Continue around the corridor and enter the trapdoor at the end.  This will
take you to Doll Altar West.  Collect the Purity Stone: Light Blue and the
Green Diary from the altar, and a Shrine Maiden will attack you.  Defeat her
and exit out the other side of the room.
Continue through this corridor to the southwest to reach the exit to the
Wooden Figure Room.  Take the picture of the curtain and unlock the door to
the Barred Hallway 1F.  Follow it to the end and climb the stairs to 2F Barred
Hallway.  A respawning herbal medicine is in the closet.  Collect it then go
through the door into the Kimono Room.  Purple Diary 2 is in front of the
mirror stand.  Get it then exit to the 2F Closet Hallway and return to the
Garden Corridor.
The door to Doll Altar North is currently sealed; snapping a picture of the
seal will show a peephole somewhere.  Walk around the Garden Corridor to the
other side and enter Doll Altar East.  Collect the Purity Stone: Green from
the altar inside.  The door at the end of the corridor leads back to the
Blind Room and is currently sealed.
(OPTIONAL:  You can backtrack and find an herbal medicine in the other section
of the 1F Barred Hallway, if you so desire.  It is in the alcove alongside the
hallway.)
Return via the Kimono Room to the 2F Round Window Foyer.  This room is through
the small door by the stairs.  Cross the beams and enter the 2F Wooden Figure
Room (the room previously sealed by the sleeping stone puzzle.)  Take the
picture through the peephole to unseal the Doll Altar North.  As you return
through the 2F Foyer a girl will appear below.  To my knowledge this is not a
picture you can capture.
Return to the Garden Corridor once again and enter the previously sealed Doll
Altar.  Pick up the Purity Stone: Blue and the Red Diary 1 from the altar.  If
you make a quick trip back to the Wooden Figure Room you can snap a picture of
a figure before the altar.  You can also return to the 'haunted' room in the
2F Stairs Hallway to collect a Type-61 film from the chest and the 1F Hearth
Room to find an herbal medicine under the stairs.
To move on, return to the Stained Corridor and go through the short door that
Rei could only enter.  There will be an herbal medicine right inside the door,
and Miku can now fit into the corridor.  Crawl through the corridor and the
Crawling Woman will attack at the intersection.  Once you've disposed of her
take a left at the intersection for a Stone Mirror.  The passage is blocked
that way so return and go to the right at the intersection to reach Doll Altar
South.
Pick up the Purity Stone: Red and the Blue Diary 1 then unlock the door on the
other side to reach the Grand Staircase.  Partway up the stairs is a Type-14
film.  Near that section of the stairs, two Shrine Maidens will attack you.
Once you defeat them you can continue up the stairs to the Tatami Loft.  Go
back through the Hearth Room to the Room with Tatami, then take the door back
to the Blind Room.  As you walk down the stairs to the Tattoo Altar, you will
hear voices.  Turn around and point the camera at the tent but to the right -
basically the same spot you snapped at the beginning of the chapter.
Enter the Tattoo Altar and collect the Blue Diary 2.  Then place the Purity
Stones on the altar in the following order, from left to right:
Light Blue
Green
Red
Blue
If done correctly, the Handmaiden's Song will play.
"Sleep priestess, lie in peace.  Sleep, priestess, lie in peace.
If the priestess wakes from her dream
Perform the rite of stakes her limbs pinned tight
Lest the doors open wide and suffering unleashed on all.."
The Kuze Family Master will attack!  The strategy for beating this boss is
fairly simple.  Keep track of her as she moves around the room.  When she
stops, point the camera at her to charge it but attack as soon as the capture
circle turns red.  Otherwise she will shoot arms at you that do a significant
amount of damage.  If you hit her during a shutter chance it will stop her
long-range attacks.  Keep this pattern up until you've taken her down.
Rei will wake up after this battle.  Go talk to Miku about what you've just
seen, then it will shift back to daytime.
Develop the film then pick up the Ritual Book and the Shrine Carpenter article
from Yuu's bookshelf, then head downstairs for Letter from Kei 6 as well as
the tapes The Same Dream 2 & The Same Dream 3 on the counter.  Listen to the
tapes for it to become night again.  Then of course, it's back to bed..
H.  Hour VIII:  The Vacant Dream
Character:  Kei Amakura
[NIGHT]
Kei is where you left him, standing before Mio's cell.  Before you leave, aim
the camera at Mio until the center circle locks on her.  The capture circle
will NOT light up, but take the picture anyway for more Musty Film.  The door
to her cell is locked with Shadow & Light keys.
Exit through the door directly behind Kei.  It leads to a small room then the
Storehouse Hallway.  First, look for the Pressure Lens on a cushion in front
of the screen in that small room.  Second, there is a Stone Mirror in the
alcove to the right as you enter the Storehouse Hallway.  Don't go all the
way to the end yet because the door at the end of the hallway is locked with a
pinwheel puzzle.
Face Mio's cell and take the door to Kei's left.  It leads to the Great Hall,
aka the Extremely Bloody Room.  Enter the door to your left to get a snapshot
of the Worn Out Man, who is familiar to Fatal Frame II fans as Masumi the
geologist.  Exit and walk around the room to the right.  A set of twins will
appear near the fireplace in the center of the room.  There is a Type-14 film
in front of the screen near the northwest door.  Exit the room and follow the
butterfly by walking around to the 1F Fireplace.  The Red Notebook 1 is by the
fireplace itself.
The door directly across from you as you enter the 1F Fireplace leads to a
short hallway and the exit to the real world.  If you inspect the piles along
the wall, the message that one of them appears to contain something but is
boarded shut will appear.  (If anyone figures out how to access this item, or
if it CAN be accessed, please let me know.)
Approach the door directly across from the fireplace itself and the twins will
appear on the second floor above you.  Get their pictures and enter the door
to the Kimono Room.  There is a save point inside as well as Red Notebook 2
upon entry.  Enter the closet section to the right of the door to pick up the
Ginger Key.
As soon as you get the key, turn around to grab a picture of Woman Behind Bars
(which is none other than the Tattooed Woman arriving to chase Kei around a
bit!).  Run out the door and up the stairs as fast as you can, then unlock
the Ginger Door with the key you found in the Kimono Room closet.  The twins
appear yet again.  Try to get them both in the shot for 1000 points; if you
