Phonographs are important objects in Hello Neighbor.
Description[]
There are two different phonographs that can be found in Mr. Peterson's House in Act 3, a green and red one. They both look vintage and have a long brass sound horn. They are disproportionate and cartoonish, common with many other objects in Hello Neighbor. The two phonographs must be used to grow or shrink the tomato plants that are located around Mr. Peterson's House in Act 3.
The green phonograph when activated plays the Alpha 2 intro theme. The green phonograph is used to grow the tomato plants in the apple shooter room. When the green phonograph is turned on near the large patch of soil, which tomato seedlings are in, tomato plants will gradually grow, blocking the apples fired from the pitching machines reaching the red levers.
The red phonograph when activated plays the Prototype-Alpha 1 chase music. The red phonograph is used to shrink the tomato plants on the roof of Mr. Peterson's House so that the player can access the ladder on the side of the windmill and the metal service hatch which contains the windmill mechanism.
Alpha 4 Cutscene[]
In Alpha 4, outside on the left side of Mr. Peterson's House, you can find a phonograph sticking out of the ground. If you have grown the golden apple, you are able to throw it into this phonograph which will trigger an unusual secret cutscene. Nicky Roth will be abruptly drawn into the phonograph. The player will find themselves in a darkened room with a phonograph on its side lying on the floor, near it lies a broken record. Looking outside a window, you will see a shadowy figure glide across the floor. Then, as if you were Mr. Peterson, his hands cover the screen, ending the cutscene. Nicky will again find himself outside in front of the phonograph sticking out of the ground, but without the golden apple.
