8 Resident Evil 7 Secrets and Easter Eggs You Might Have Missed

The Dummy Finger

Resident Evil 7 Secrets and Easter Eggs

The Dummy Finger was a big deal back in the days of the Beginning Hour teaser demo. Players could find the item relatively quickly in the demo but were unable to figure out what to do with it. With the next two demo updates, we were finally able to attach the Dummy Finger to a celluloid hand, and use it to solve a series of cryptic puzzles that detailed the murders of the other people who were kidnapped by the Bakers.

In Resident Evil 7, Capcom includes the Dummy Finger in an optional, but extremely intense, VHS tape segment. This time around, the Dummy Finger can actually be used within the game itself, and it’s a required item for solving one of the most disturbing puzzles in the game.
