Editing Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem (section)

===Sanity Effects===
Eternal Darkness uses sanity effects to scare or shock the player.
Some examples of sanity effects include:

* Sounds, including women and children crying out of fear and pain, the sound of a blade being sharpened, accompanied by the whimpering and screams of its victim.
* Paintings turning to nightmarish depictions. For example, an idyllic mountain landscape turns to hell on Earth.
* Walls and ceilings bleeding. Attacking them causes more effusion.
* When casting a spell, the player character's body above the waist explodes.
* Appearance of large numbers of monsters that are not really there, and disappear when attacked.
* The player character's head falling off. When picked up, the head begins to recite Shakespeare.
* If holding a gun, the character will shoot at the screen.
* Character or monsters shrinking or growing.
* A version of the blue screen of death.
* Statues and busts turning to look at the character. They turn back to original position when the character faces them.
* Character whimpering and babbling to him or herself.
* A "to-be-continued" message (leading the player to believe they have reached the end of the game) and promising continuation in a sequel game: Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Redemption.
* Body parts systematically falling off one-by-one.
* Character walking into a room from a previous or future chapter that uses the same location.
* Character accidentally shooting him- or herself while reloading.
* Character entering a room on the ceiling; after a while the player finds him- or herself back outside the door used to enter the room.
* Character sinking into the floor.
* When playing as Maximillian Roivas, and you first climb down the ladder in the basement, Max will appear in behind a locked door. (Forshadowing!)
* Entering a room as a zombie, forced to wander the environment in this form until destroyed (and thereafter reappearing at the room's entrance as though nothing had happened).
* When trying to save, instead of the usual "do you wish to overwrite saved date" screen, there is a "do you wish to delete all save files" with a "yes" and a "continue without saving" option. No matter what you do, all files appear to be deleted
* Abundances of ammo. When the effect wears off, you reappear in the room you came from with none of said ammo.
* Flies crawling all over the screen.
* TV "shutting itself off"
