Peek a Boo Ending Guide — 7 Days Cat-Sitting

Peek a boo is the hallway ending tied to the Tall Man in 7 Days Cat-Sitting. A tall, gangly figure appears in the hall. Photograph him with your phone and he leaves. Ignore him, finish your night, and sleep — and the badge Peek a boo records that he came visiting. This page is the focused route for both survival and farming, with cross-links to the wider Anomalies and All Endings hubs.

Signs you are in a Peek a Boo setup

  • A tall, thin, wrong silhouette standing in the hallway
  • The figure was not there on your earlier pass through the same hall
  • Phone camera / owner message may hint that something is off in that corridor

If you only see a pale face pressed to glass, that is Window Looker (I see you), not Tall Man. If Granny is knocking, that is a different patience test. Match the silhouette to the system before you act.

Survive: how to remove the Tall Man

  1. Stop optional exploration the moment you confirm the figure.
  2. Open your in-game phone.
  3. Take a photo of the Tall Man.
  4. Confirm he is gone — do not assume the shutter sound alone finished the job.
  5. Resume unfinished chores from the Daily Chores Checklist.
  6. Re-check the hallway during the night audit before sleep.

Walkthrough sources agree: the phone photo is the hard counter. Do not try to “wait him out” the way you wait out Granny. Tall Man wants documentation.

Farm: how to unlock Peek a boo on purpose

  1. Keep feed, litter, laser, mail, lock, and dinner correct so another badge does not steal the night.
  2. When the Tall Man appears, do not photograph him.
  3. Optionally continue safe chores in other rooms, but leave him active.
  4. Sleep while he remains in play.
  5. Confirm Peek a boo on your Roblox badge list.

Gamezebo notes that leaving the tall figure alone may let him visit during the night — that visit is the punchline this badge tracks.

Common mistakes

Photographing the wrong thing. A window face needs curtains, not a hallway selfie. A toilet head needs a flush. Use the Anomalies table when you are unsure.

Assuming he despawned. Always re-check the hall after the photo and again before bed.

Panicking into Granny’s door. Knocking plus a hallway scare can stack stress. Still never open for Granny while you deal with Tall Man.

Sleeping mid-HIDE. If HIDE flashes, hide first in a back room, then return to Tall Man logic. Found You can override your farming plan.

Where Peek a Boo sits in a badge route

After you own Cannon Good Ending, anomaly farms are efficient because many need only one ignored threat. Peek a Boo is a strong mid-list farm once you can reliably spawn or wait for hallway events. Pair it with Voided and Catzilla on separate nights.

Tall Man is simple once you respect the rule: photo to live, ignore to Peek a boo, never sleep guessing.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers about surviving Whiskers and every anomaly.

How do I get the Peek a Boo ending?

Leave the Tall Man in the hallway without photographing him, keep other chores correct, and sleep so the badge can award.

How do I stop the Tall Man?

Open your phone and take a photo of him. Confirm he disappeared before you continue or sleep.

Is Peek a Boo the same as I see you?

No. Peek a Boo is the hallway Tall Man. I see you comes from a pale face at a window if you leave curtains open.

Can I wait out the Tall Man like Granny?

No. Granny is a do-not-open patience test. Tall Man is removed with a phone photo.

What if HIDE triggers while Tall Man is present?

Hide in a back room first. Surviving HIDE matters before you resume photo or farm decisions.
