** Chris Walker. The relentless man keeps following you throughout the game, no matter where you are. Unlike certain enemies, who only check one locker you can hide in, Walker's smart enough to check ''both'' lockers. His patrols are completely random, he uses sound to his advantage during the pitch-black watery section of the sewers, and he rarely stops chasing you if you're caught unless you squeeze through a crack or crawl through a hole, neither of which he can fit in.
** Doctor Trager. Like Walker, his patrol isn't scripted, and he has a habit of literally popping up ''from around a random corner''. He's more than happy to check under the beds you can hide under, and unlike other enemies (including Walker), he doesn't always waste time bashing down doors. Sometimes he'll just casually open them. He can also flank you, so closing doors to slow him down doesn't always work since he'll take a different path to find you.
