The Casting of Frank Stone: Killing all characters
While there are tons of ways to kill each character in The Casting of Frank Stone, some kills are easier and simply better than others. Normally, it is possible to lock yourself out of killing some characters depending on the choices you make, This guide makes sure that you can kill all characters in a single playthrough.
How to kill Jaime
The first character you can kill is Jaime in Chapter 5: The Phantom of Cedar Steel. When Chris is getting sucked into the portal door, Jaime will have two choices to choose from “Flee” or “Confront.” To kill Jaime, you want to select the confront option and then fail in the quick-time events with the firecrackers. Failing to use the firecrackers will cause Frank Stone to slice him in half.
Keep in mind that it’s possible to not even have firecrackers in your possession, as they are completely missable in an earlier chapter. If you don’t have firecrackers, then all you need to do is select the confront option and Jaimie will be killed.
How to kill Madison
The next character you can kill is Madison in Chapter 8: Mystery Manor. After solving the Horologium puzzle, your last objective is to hit the central switch by completing a quick-time event. Failing the quick-time event will result in Madison getting burned to death.
If you accidentally fail at killing Madison in this chapter, you can still kill her in Chapter 14. After fixing the generator and elevator, choose the option to not help Madison when Linda is given a choice. This will lead to Frank Stone capturing Madison, which will result in her being sacrificed in the ending parts of the game.
How to kill Chris
While there are multiple ways to kill Chris in The Casting of Frank Stone, the earliest opportunity comes in Chapter 10: In the House of Madness. When Chris appears in the 2024 timeline and meets Madison, you’ll have the option to get back into the machine and return to the past, or stay in the present. Choose the “Hopeful” option to return to the past.
When Chris goes to grab another lever, make sure to fail the quick-time event which will cause Stan to step in for help and eventually fall off the edge. Fail the next quick-time event and then choose the “Go” option and refuse to help Stan.
Doing this correctly will cause Chris to end up in the past timeline completely deformed and dead at the start of Chapter 11: All Paths Must Cross.
If Chris has survived past the point mentioned, you still have the chance to kill her in Chapter 14. There’s a catch though — you need to have grabbed the mirror from the lady at the shop in Chapter 3. You can get the mirror at the drugstore, where you need to tell the lady that the price isn’t good for the camera. She will then offer you a mirror for your movie.
With the mirror in hand, you can officially kill Chris in Chapter 14. Towards the end of the chapter, Chris will have the option to push through the projector or leave. Choose the option to “push through,” and the mirror will burn Chris alive.
How to kill Sam
Sam can be killed in Chapter 13: Murder Mill when he picks up the cursed camera on the ground in the underground tunnel. As you explore the underground tunnel as Sam, you’ll notice the camera logo light up on the bottom right-hand corner of the screen. This is your cue to bring out the camera and fight Frank Stone.
If you fail to fight Frank Stone with the camera, then Frank will maul Sam to death. After Sam dies, Robert will come and pick up the cursed camera.
You can also kill Sam in 2024 during Chapter 14. When Linda or Stan is getting grabbed by Frank Stone in the projector, choose the option “sacrifice yourself.” This will cause Sam to get grabbed and consumed by Frank Stone.
How to kill Linda
Players can easily kill Linda in Chapter 14: The Massacre of Gerant Manor. While you can kill Linda by not saving her from Frank Stone in the projector, it’s easier to have an everyone dies playthrough if you save her this moment. The only characters you should sacrifice to the projector is Sam (if he is alive at this point in your playthrough) or Stan.
Instead, you should focus on killing her during the chase with Frank. After fixing the generator, Linda will have the choice of going up or down on the elevator. Choose the option to go up to start the chase with Frank Stone.
During the chase, you’ll encounter a couple of quick-time events. Failing to open the door on the second QTE will lead to Frank throwing Linda against the wall and smashing down his machete into her face, killing her immediately. Keep in mind that killing Linda at this point will change the ending of the game.
How to kill Robert
Out of all the characters in The Casting of Frank Stone, Robert cannot be killed and will survive the events of the game no matter what. I have tried tons of different choices throughout multiple playthroughs and it seems that Robert is invincible and there’s no way to kill him.
How to kill Bonnie
Luckily, Bonnie is very easy to kill. No matter what decisions you make throughout the game, Bonnie will always be killed at the hands of Frank Stone. During Chapter 13: Murder Mill, Bonnie is hung by a hanging hook in the ceiling, leading her to bleed to death.
How to kill Stan
Similar to Bonnie, Stan dies no matter what in The Casting of Frank Stone. Unlike Bonnie, though, you can choose how he dies. The first option is to fail the quick-time event in Chapter 14 when Frank Stone grabs him through the projector. This will lead to Stan being consumed by Frank Stone.
Another way to kill Stan is to save him from the projector by succeeding in the quick-time event. Soon after saving Stan, Frank Stone will walk over to him and put a machete through his skull.
Now that you understand how to kill all characters in The Casting of Frank Stone, you can do an “everyone dies” walkthrough. Did you know that it’s also possible to save everyone in the game? Check out our guide on how to save everyone in The Casting of Frank Stone so you can have a happy ending. Well, not “happy,” but a less brutal one.
