The door of her cell then opens and she wanders into the hallway, and as she walks down a hallway it is shown that the Doctor is lurking on the ceiling behind her. The comic then ends on that ominous note leaving the Girl with Braids' fate unknown.
Trivia

- A room similar to the one that the Girl with Braids' story took place can be found as a secret room in the Hospital.
- Photos of her can be found in some areas of the Pale City, such as the School and Pale City's apartments.
- The Girl with Braids' photo depicts her using crutches, yet in the comic app, she appears to be able to walk on her own without the help of crutches. This could imply she is an ambulatory crutch user meaning she need crutches to help with her balancing issues but can walk on her own sometimes.
- Although the girl does not appear in Little Nightmares II, her model exists in the game files.
