3) Rebecca is attacked by a Hunter

Learn how to prevent Rebecca from being attacked by Hunters in Resident Evil (1996). Discover the conditions and strategies to ensure her survival.

Okay, so you've dealt with that first Hunter and you hear a scream from upstairs? That's Rebecca in trouble, likely in the mini-library on the second floor. You need to get there ASAP, especially if you took your sweet time getting the Serum back to Richard earlier. If you dawdled too much, or if you messed up the CPR in Rebirth Mode, she's in a bad spot.

When you get to the mini-library (it's the room with the Botany Book), you've got a few seconds to act. If you're quick enough, you'll see a Hunter closing in. Take it down, and Rebecca's safe for the rest of the game. But if you're too slow, or if you decide to just nope out of the room, you'll hear her scream – she won't make it. And if you take *way* too long, you'll walk in on the Hunter attacking her. You can't save her then, she'll get her head swiped off. So, speed is key here!

Now, there's another scenario where Rebecca might be in danger, this time outside the Serum Save Room. This happens if you told her 'No' earlier when she asked about something in that room. When you return to the mansion after that first Hunter fight, Chris will be worried. You need to race to the Serum Save Room. If you make it in time, you'll find Rebecca safe inside. But if you're too slow, you'll find her being attacked by a Hunter just outside the save room, near the stairwell. You can save her by killing the Hunter, or you can leave her to her fate.
