Special weapons
To get special weapons for Finoa, you must first complete the game. Then, start a new game under either the "Hard Mode" or "Regular Mode" options. After the opening sequence and the movie clip where Finoa gets changed, go to the dresser. Change into either the "Texas Girl" or "Illegal In Some States" costume. Press Square to kick. With the "Texas Girl" costume, Finoa will fire a gun (which can be good against the enemies from a far distance). With the "Illegal In Some States" costume, Finoa will attack with a whip.

Hidden mini-game
To unlock a secret mini-game, you must first complete the game. Then, go to the main menu and select the "Secret Room" option. After the game loads, you will be in the bedroom where Finoa changes her costume at the beginning. Go to the door next to the fireplace. Once there you play as Hewie and must guide and protect Finoa to the place where she must get to.

Obsidian Choker
Instead of typing "METH", type "EMETH" at the very first card slot in the game. A different cutscene will be seen, then look on the floor in front of the door and you'll find a useful Obsidian Choker.

Fight against Ogre
Go to the room with the blocks that you have to move around from across the bridge. Make sure you have that refracted mirror piece from the study first. First move the green block where it's supposed to be; then move the red block (not the one in the middle of the floor, the other one) across from the two empty spaces. You'll need those spaces to place the gray block. Once the gray block is in its position, you can put the two red blocks where they're supposed to be. Once the scene is over, climb down the spiral staircase and put the refracted mirror piece in the mirror that requires it. Position the mirrors until they make a clicking noise and have a tell-tale glimmer. Once that's done, go out the door between the mirrors and out to the ramp with the red lit corridor. Keep going to the ladder near the Ogre's cabin. Climb both ladders and go through the door. Go to the mirror and turn it until it glimmers and makes a clicking sound. Go back out, down, and back through the red lit corridor. Head down the ramp and back through the door Fiona was before. Go through the newly opened door. Don't forget to save at the clock. Go down the stairs and through the door. Make sure you don't get too close to the dark part. Make Hewie (the dog) come and then send him to search through the darkness. Follow him through it and make sure you're staying right on top of him, otherwise you'll fall and die. Once you get to the other side make sure to praise him and start the cycle all over again and again with the praising. Go through that door and you'll be in a church go to the far end with that statue there and examine it thoroughly and take the key. Make your way back down and the Ogre will be there. On each side of the church near the entrance there will be pulleys that you will need to kick. Do so until the big lug comes over and tries to hit you he will hit the pulley. While he's doing that run over to the other side of the church, tell Hewie to attack and kick that pulley until he comes over again and so on until the scene. After the scene is over head back through the darkness room, up the stairs, save at the clock, go out the door and through the next, go up the ramp through the red lit corridor, past the ladders and into his cabin. Go talk to him this time and he will give you a key to that door in the restroom.

lol... It's not an ogre...
Debilitas is the castle's gardener and handyman. Upon encountering Fiona walking in Castle Belli, he is compelled to chase after her. Despite his hulking size and massive strength, he has the mental capacity of a young child. He can only seem to understand simple language and is only heard speaking short, garbled phrases ("My dolly", "Where is you!"). He plays with dolls, and believes that Fiona is also a doll. His origins are unclear, but he may be one of Lorenzo's failed "creations"; when Fiona enters the medical room whilst being chased in the Riccardo and Daniella sections of the game and throws either available bottles, an image of a large and muscley person is shown (possibly a diagram of Debilitas). Debilitas is easily outwitted by Fiona, but he is persistent and powerful. He chases Fiona and Hewie for quite awhile until all three of them enter the Chapel, after which Fiona must battle with Debilitas. The battle has a number of outcomes, one of which involves a giant chandelier dropping onto Debilitas by Fiona, after which Debilitas will cease pursuit for the rest of the game. Another is Debilitas' death, attainable by wearing Debilitas' health down.
