However, once the Neighbor is in Attack Mode, it is very hard to get away from him as he is extremely fast in this version. The Neighbor will start in Idle Mode and this seems to be the easiest as he doesn't go in Hunt Mode that much.

You hide in a wardrobe to prevent him from seeing you. You open the front door, a hat stand falls, and the Neighbor will hear it. Intrigued, Nicky enters the Neighbor's house. Keeping a low profile, Nicky views the Neighbor shut and lock the basement door. After seeing the Neighbor struggle with what is most likely a hostage, Nicky quickly runs over to the house.
Nicky wakes up outside his actual house on a blue couch, startled after hearing a scream.

Nicky Roth is in his car driving to a new neighborhood.
