Trivia

• As a Survivor, hiding in a Locker will stop any Aura-reading ability of both the Killer and the other Survivors, but will also apply the Blindness Status Effect.
  • However, Aura flare-ups caused by Rancor , Infectious Fright or Madness Tier-ups do not strictly count as Aura-reading abilities, those remain unaffected by hiding inside a Locker or when using Perks such as Distortion or Sole Survivor .
