Story
The player will wake up inside their bedroom. They can talk with two people: Grim, their brother, who will say "Get out of my room please." when you talk with him. The story continues as the player speaks with their father which can be located downstairs. The father will go outside to buy some groceries and will instruct the player to go to bed before 10 o'clock.

When the clock hits 10, music will play and the player will say " I should go to bed." The player goes to sleep.

When the player wakes up, a noise will be heard from the basement. The player wonders "What's that noise?" And investigates. Grim has disappeared from his bedroom. A key to the basement will be found on the floor of the bedroom of Mom & Dad's room. This key is used to open the door to the basement. When unlocking the door, a gasp from possibly a monster can be briefly heard for approximately a second. The player enters the basement and the screen displays the title of the chapter on the screen.

In the basement, three things can be inspected: A machine, a mannequin and a secret switch that the player can interact with. After interacting, the secret switch will reveal a very long hallway, and at the end of the hallway, a door. As the player approaches the door, it slams shut and from the direction that the player has come from will appear a tall black monster. It is comfirmed in the "Extra" part of the game that this monster is named Gregory. The monster touches the player and the screen goes black.

After a brief moment the player will wake up in their bedroom, realizing what has happened was a nightmare. As the player leaves the room, the slam of a door can be heard. It is unknown what the door slam means and who made it, but most players missed this detail. The clock hits 12:00 as the player realizes they are home alone: Grim has not returned to his bedroom. The player then goes back to bed.

When the player wakes up, foot prints can be seen in the living room from the main entrance of the house to the basement. These foot prints may have a relationship with the door slam that was heard earlier, but interestingly those foot prints was not there the last time the player was awake (when it was 12), though this detail is not confirmed. Soon an alarm will display on the television, warning the player to "Secure all entrances, do not interact with anyone outside, if a humanoid figure appears, a noise can be heard or some objects begin to move on their own, do not investigate, turn off all lights, cover windows and stay silent at all times." The TV screen will go black and a sound of glass shattering can be heard.

The voice of the player's father will be heard, pleading the player to open the door because he lost his keys while running from something chasing him. If you open the door here, a monster (Assumably The Smiling Man) attacks you and you die. After a while, The Smiling Man can be seen creeping away. The player will than turn off all lights, cover windows with cardboard, and will go to bed. Chapter 1 ends and Chapter 2 starts.
