Provided you’ve joined us from our guide on the opening chapter of Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden, you’ll have just settled the spirit of Charles Davenport and will have rested in the Schoolhouse ahead of another day in New Eden trying to rid the town of The Nightmare.
Well, it may come as a bit of a surprise, but you’ll be seeing the Nightmare up close and personal very soon in the next chapter of this new and exciting RPG from Don’t Nod. This chapter is a short one, but we intend to walk you through it nonetheless so you can get on to bigger and better things in this immersive setting.
So, without further ado, we jump back into the spirit-banishing action. This is Indie Game Culture’s Banishers Ghosts of New Eden Full Walkthrough – Death to the Dead.

Heading To The Meeting House
As the new chapter begins, you will wake up after having a nightmare when resting in the Schoolhouse. Only this time you will take control of Red. He awakes to find that Anthea is missing, and he has a feeling that she has taken off to the Meeting House to take on the Nightmare alone.
From here, head out of the Schoolhouse, and you’ll see the chilling night sky, which indicates that something ain’t right, if nothing else. You’ll need to walk through the town and head toward the Meeting House, which is at the highest point of the town.
Along the way, you will be able to collect some resources, and you’ll have to defeat a few Specters, but there’s nothing all that challenging or important between here and the Meeting house, so you can pretty much gun it to the quest marker.
When you approach the Meeting House, you’ll hear a chilling rendition of Three Blind Mice, and while that’s as big of a red flag as any, you should enter the building anyway. Upon entering, you’ll find what you believe to be Anthea, but it turns out, the Nightmare lured you here, and it’s time to fight.
Battling The Nightmare
The battle with The Nightmare is pretty straightforward. The Health Bar will indicate a three-phase fight, but you’ll only need to worry about the first portion of this encounter.
You’ll need to dodge her attacks and keep moving initially, carving out moments to run in, get a few hits and then get some space again.
After a little while, The Nightmare will also begin to create copies of themselves, which will take some damage, but will evaporate after a single hit.
It’s not clear which one is the real Nightmare, so the best course of action is to use a sprinting heavy attack to kill one for maximum damage and then move on to the next in the hope you get the real Nightmare.
You should also get enough hits to fill up your Banish Bar, which you should use immediately to end the fight as quickly as possible. This will stagger The Nightmare, and then you can get up close and trigger the ‘Banish’ Command.
This would, in theory, begin the next phase, but The Nightmare staggers you, and then she smashes you through the wall, dangling you off the edge of the cliff.
Anthea comes to your aid, but as she tries to attack The Nightmare, she is struck down and killed before your eyes. Then The Nightmare tosses you to the rocks below, which seems like it could be the end.
Waking Up To A Witch
That wouldn’t exactly be value for money, now would it? So, when sinking to the bottom of the sea, you are dragged to shore and rescued by a mysterious Witch known as Seeker. She allows you to ask some questions about her Mistress, why you were saved, and what to do next.
Then, after this section, she disappears, leaving you alone to start your adventure proper and signaling the end of this short chapter of Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden!
A New Start
I told you it would be a short one, but now that you’ve faced The Nightmare, you’ll know exactly how imposing this undead beast will be the next time your paths cross.
What has become of Athea, we do not know, and that’s why you’ll need to join us as we continue to walk through Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden. I hope this guide helps, and as always, thanks for reading IGC.
