Before Story

If Mary Skelter Finale is your first time playing the Mary Skelter series, then worry not! With the “Before Story” feature, you can view the full story of the Mary Skelter series at any time!

Mary Skelter Finale includes a “Before Story” review system that lets you view the full stories of Mary Skelter: Nightmares and Mary Skelter 2. By viewing the “Before Story,” you can enjoy the story of the Mary Skelter series in its entirety.

By selecting “Before Story” from the title screen, you will then be able to select between Mary Skelter: Nightmares and Mary Skelter 2, and then between the “Story” and “Bonus” options.

By selecting the “Story” option, you can view the events of the game’s main and sub scenarios.

Of course, for those who have already played Mary Skelter: Nightmares or Mary Skelter 2, you also can also choose to only view the scenes you want to see again.
