Can you avoid Emily getting bitten?

To stop Emily from getting bitten in Until Dawn, she must keep the flare gun from the tower, successfully complete all quick-time events (QTEs) during the chase to the rock grinder (especially shooting the Wendigo), and choose to leap off the conveyor belt to avoid the grinder, ensuring she isn't bitten before reaching the lodge. Missing QTEs or not having the flare gun results in the bite, which affects later interactions, especially with Ashley.

What happens if Emily gets bitten on Reddit?

Comments Section

If Emily gets bit, she has the chance to be shot by one of the characters. The bite isn't infectious or harmful, but the characters will be scared of her. Simply don't shoot Emily and she will live. The POINT of the flare gun is to avoid the bite, thus avoiding this possible Emily death.

Should I save Emily or jump to safety?

In Until Dawn, if you're playing as Matt and the radio tower is collapsing, choose to jump to safety to save Matt's life, as trying to save Emily at that specific moment leads to his death unless he has the flare gun and successfully shoots the Wendigo, which is difficult to set up. However, to keep both alive, you need different choices in earlier chapters, like ensuring Emily finds the flare gun, you give it to Matt, and then you both jump to safety after the tower collapses, which separates them but keeps them alive, notes IGN.

What happens if I don't shoot Emily until Dawn?

If you don't shoot Emily when Mike has the chance in Chapter 8 (after she's bitten), Mike refuses and says they'll keep an eye on her, unlocking the "Let eM In" trophy and potentially angering Emily, which affects her relationship with Ashley, but she can still survive the night if Sam saves her later. If Mike chooses not to shoot her and instead she survives the Wendigo encounter in the mines by failing the "Don't Move" segment as Sam (or not saving Mike), Emily dies by the Wendigo in the lodge as she's trapped inside and gets killed, leading to Ashley potentially dying too.

Can you save Emily if she is bitten?

The following QTEs will also not kill her in any instances. If Emily was bitten, Mike will point the gun at her later inside the lodge basement. Do not shoot Emily; let the timer expire instead, as the bite is not infectious.

UNTIL DAWN - Emily NOT Bitten / Basement Dialogue

What's the worst ending in Until Dawn?

The absolute worst ending in Until Dawn is the "This Is THE End" trophy where everyone dies, achieved by failing most possible QTEs and choices, making characters like Sam and Mike get killed in the final moments, resulting in no survivors besides potential Josh becoming a Wendigo, a truly horrific conclusion to the night. This ending signifies complete failure, with gruesome deaths for almost all characters, highlighting the catastrophic consequences of poor decisions and missed actions.

Who is the hardest person to keep alive in Until Dawn?

The hardest character to keep alive in Until Dawn is generally considered to be Matt, closely followed by Jessica, due to counter-intuitive choices and high-stakes Quick Time Events (QTEs) that often lead to early or unexpected deaths, especially for players on a first playthrough without prior knowledge. Matt's survival often clashes with the natural instinct to save Emily, while Jessica faces an extremely challenging early sequence with tight timing and hidden options.

Can Emily survive without the flare gun?

Yes, Emily can survive without the flare gun in Until Dawn, but it's much harder and requires perfect performance in later Quick-Time Events (QTEs) during her chase in the mines (Chapter 8) to avoid the Wendigo bite, or if she does get bit, requires specific choices from Mike and Sam later to prevent her death in the lodge, making keeping the gun (or giving it to Matt) generally easier for overall survival. The flare gun prevents the bite entirely, but if she doesn't have it, you need flawless QTEs and good choices in later chapters to keep her alive.

Should I tell Emily about the bite?

Regardless of Emily being killed or spared, Ashley can hide the truth about the bites. If Emily lives and Ashley revealed the truth, Emily will push Ashley as the two flee from Wendigos at the end. This changes Ashley's escape order and can lead to her being killed in the lodge explosion instead of Emily.

Should I turn back or hide as Emily?

In Until Dawn, when running from the Stranger in the mines (Chapter 7/8), you should "Hide", not turn back, to find the secret collectible (1952 #17) and progress the narrative for that specific path, though turning back leads to a different route with the Stranger but still gives flares; the core choice is about getting the secret or taking the main path, but hiding allows you to find the clue.

Can you save Emily if she gets bit?

If Emily gets bitten during this section, don't fret. During Chris' section, shoot the Wendigo every time you're given the chance to. Once everyone reconvenes in the safe room, Mike will pull his gun on Emily if she was bitten earlier. If this happens, do not shoot her.

Is it better to keep the flare gun or give it to Matt?

In Until Dawn, giving the flare gun to Matt is often best for his survival, but it depends on how you give it and your prior choices (like agreeing/disagreeing about the radio tower) – generally, if Matt has the loaded flare gun (by you disagreeing with the tower and giving it to him) and you choose to save Emily on the tower, he can use it to save himself from the Wendigo; otherwise, he risks death in later chapters unless he jumps to safety. Keeping it gives Emily a potential last-minute save, but if she messes up, Matt still dies in the tower, or he lacks defense later.

Is there a way to save Wolfie Until Dawn?

Yes, you can save the wolf (Wolfie) in Until Dawn, but it requires specific actions in Chapters 5 and 9: befriend the wolf in the chapel (Chapter 5) by not kicking it and optionally giving it a bone, then in Chapter 9, successfully complete Mike's QTEs and choose to barricade the door instead of escaping, which secures its survival as it won't follow Mike down the hole but stays safe from the immediate threat.

Is it better to shoot Chris or Ashley?

In the game Until Dawn, there's no single "right" answer for Chris in the Chapter 6 trap; shooting himself or doing nothing (which defaults to him trying to shoot himself) saves Ashley and progresses their relationship positively, while shooting Ashley makes her distrust him, leading to him getting killed later by a wendigo because she won't open the door, so it's a choice between character development/survival and a potentially tragic, but logical, consequence.

Who is the real killer in Until Dawn?

In Until Dawn, the main "killer" is initially presented as a masked Psycho, revealed to be Josh Washington, enacting revenge on his friends for a prank on his sisters, but the true monstrous threat is the Wendigo, possessed miners cursed by a totem. In the recent 2025 movie adaptation, the masked figure (possibly still Josh) is part of a time loop, but the Wendigo curse is central, with the killer changing forms, representing fear and guilt, making it both a human-driven revenge plot and a supernatural horror.
