when the monsters spawn in storage after grabbing the two rods. I was able to get past the first one by sneaking behind it and then crouching down and going to the right in the room that had the half wall running down the middle. The second monster I just ran past and made it to the door to the Back Hall with it right behind me. I had to quit for a bit after that while I waited for my hands to stop shaking.

Thanks to an eye condition that caused my retinas to lose part of their ability to see light, the brightness of my game is set up somewhat high, though most of the time, I can't tell. Though there were a couple times, like

in the morgue, where I was cowering in the corner of the body pit from the brute, and I just felt so exposed, because the area seemed so brightly lit to me. I was just waiting for it to see me, but thankfully, it didn't.

The other big scare for me was in the kitchen. When the grunt started pounding at the door, I jumped over the table and hid in the corner beside the bookshelf to the left of the door.

In the sewers, after exiting the control room for the water wheel, the brute spawned as I was leaving, and it quickly spotted me. I was so terrified that I spun the camera around too hard and ended up doing a 360 instead of a 180 turn, and I ran right into it and died.
