Many creepy ghosts lurk in the halls of Yeondu High, but these ones will give players the biggest scares.
High school is a nightmare for some, but it's a literal nightmare in White Day: A Labyrinth Named School. Yeondu High is filled with the restless, vengeful spirits that were unlucky enough to have died within its walls.
Hee-Min is forced to face all these ghosts as he tries to escape from the school with his life. There are a lot of different ghosts that haunt the dark halls and empty classrooms of the school. All of them are eerie in their own way, but there are those that are truly creepy.
The Mannequin ghost is the most innocuous-looking in the game. It looks like an ordinary anatomy model. It can be found in the Biology Lab on the 2nd floor in the Main building. The Mannequin is one of the ghosts requiring a specific prerequisite to be triggered. It will only attack if the oil lamp on the desk in front of it is lit, and the player is either dizzy or exhausted.
The Mannequin will start to move toward towards the player and will attack if not avoided. The ghost story associated with the Mannequin suggests that the Biology Lab is cursed by the victims of cruel human experiments that were done in the same location, and that the Mannequin is the body of one of the victims.
The Woman in the Locker is one of the ghosts that will appear randomly, and she can appear in the lockers of the classrooms in Section 1 of the Main building. She acts as one of the many jump scares in the game, though she doesn't do any damage. For her to appear, the classroom lights must be dark.

The story associated with this ghost is a tragic tale involving the school once being used as a place of torture. One prisoner was a woman who refused to tell her captives where her husband was, and as punishment, she was forced into a tiny closet that was sealed off with bricks.
The Lying Female Student is a ghost that is introduced in the remake. In the mobile version, she has to be met in a specific order to get her entry in the game's Ghost Collection. In the Playstation 4 and PC versions, she will appear in the Night Duty Room in the Main Building, as well as in various New Building classrooms.
She can be avoided if the player doesn't interact with her. However, if they interact with her three times, on the third time she will jump up, scream in their face and deal damage. The Lying Female Student is the ghost of a former student named Ji-hye who was killed by her ex-boyfriend in her homeroom.
The Starved Ghost is another ghost that can be avoided and even missed entirely. She's found in the school store in the New Building, behind the counter. There will be an empty lunch tray that the player can interact with and put lunchboxes on. A ghastly-looking hand will quickly reach up to snatch the box away.
In the PC/PS4 version, after setting down two lunchboxes, she will jump up from behind the counter and attack the player, dealing damage. As long as the player doesn't put down the lunchboxes, she will not appear. The story associated with her is about a girl named Young-mee, who starved herself to death.
The Face Filled with Hatred is another ghost that will only appear under certain conditions. She can appear in any of the bathrooms on the first floor of the Main building, though not the girl's bathroom that Sung-ah and Hee-min went to at the beginning of the game. Keeping the lights off, head to the last stall in the bathroom and lay down to look at the gap between the floor and door.

Soon enough, there will be a heavy "thunking" sound as a hidden voice seems to check all the stalls in the bathroom. The sound will get louder until it sounds like it's right outside the stall, and then her face will suddenly appear in the gap. The Face Filled with Hatred is about a girl named Young-hee who was pushed off the rooftop of the school by her friend. She's exclusive to the remake.
The Haunted Head Ghost is associated with the story of a tragic accident. When the New Building was being constructed, scaffolding fell on a woman and took off her head. Just like in the first game, she appears see-through when she is first spotted, and slowly approaches the player until she suddenly appears in front of them screaming in their face.
In the original game, she's more of a detriment to the player as she will continue to pursue them once she is spawned. She also alerts the janitor to the player's location.
The Housemistress is the ghost of a female teacher that worked at the school. She's another exclusive ghost to the remake, and has a specific condition to make her appear. The player needs to retrieve the box of cigarettes in the Boys' Bathroom on the first floor of the Main Building. After equipping the cigarettes, go to the Girls' Bathroom on the third floor in Area 2 of the Main building. With the lights off, look into the second mirror to make her appear behind Hee-Min.
The Housemistress will charge with her scissors and disappear soon after, but will reappear after leaving the bathroom and attack. She was once the Housemistress/Housemother of a girls' dormitory when the school was first made. Her strictness led to her students hating her, and they even blamed the death of another student on her. The pressure from the students' hatred led to her running off and eventually dying in the mountains nearby.
The Grandmother Ghost poses a big problem to the player if she catches them caught. She can be found in the New Building on the 3rd floor. Walking along the indoor bridge, the player will find themselves unable to move. When they look around, the Grandmother Ghost will suddenly pop up and scare them, disappearing in the next moment with an echoing creepy laugh.

If the player is seen by the Janitor and chased over the indoor bridge, she will grab ahold of them, making it easier for the Janitor to attack. The story associated with her tells the tale of a seemingly kind older woman who took care of orphans. One day, she and the children disappeared. When people went to search for them, all they found were the remains of the children. The best way to avoid her is to avoid crossing the indoor bridge.
Eun-ah is the ghost of a girl that had sulfuric acid thrown into her face. She's found in the New building, inside the Music Appreciation Room. Encountering her and defeating her is part of the story, so she can't be avoided.
The player must have the Yin-Yang token in order to defeat her. If they go near her without it, the room will become dark. She will attack the player as soon as they use the lighter, killing them. With the Yin-Yang Token, players have to reflect the light of the token onto her before she shows her face.
Both dangerous and very scary, the Spider Ghost is an obstacle that the player must face when they get to the New Building. In the remake, she appears in specific classrooms. She cannot be avoided, as the player has to enter these classrooms to complete a puzzle to retrieve the rooftop key for the New Building.
If she catches the player, she will capture them with her long hair and then fling them across the room, causing damage. The Spider Ghost is one of the few ghosts who are revealed to not be human in the story associated with her.
