Chapter 4 of Halloween: The Game breaks the pattern set by earlier chapters. Where every previous chapter hides two Loomis Logs, The Babysitters bumps that count to three. Two of those tapes are tied directly to story timing, and missing the window on either one means replaying the entire chapter from scratch. That is not a fun prospect given how unforgiving this level gets.
Where are all the Chapter 4 Loomis Log locations?
Here is a quick reference before the full breakdown:
Only the first tape plays by standard exploration rules. The other two require you to read the situation before committing to a path.
Loomis Log #1
The chapter's cutscenes keep pulling your attention toward the Wallace house, but the first tape is in the building directly across the street. You can identify the right house by two pumpkins flanking the porch steps and the number 1542 posted near the door.
Step through the front door and go left into the first room. There is a macramé wall hanging above a side table, and the recording sits on top of that table. No timer, no threat, no complication. Grab it whenever you have a free moment away from the main objective and move on.

Loomis Log #2
This is the tape that trips up most players. The Wallace laundry room sits in a detached building behind the garage in the backyard, and the recording is on top of the dryer. The problem is that Annie, your primary target for this chapter, walks into that same room a few minutes after the first Wallace house cutscene plays. A dog also starts patrolling the property after that scene, which compounds the exposure risk.

How to get it without losing Annie
Three windows exist to reach it safely:
- Option 1: Head to the laundry room the moment the level begins, right after the opening cutscene. Annie has not moved yet, so you have a clean run to the dryer with no interference. If you are working on Challenge 1 for the level anyway, you will already be in this area.
- Option 2: After the second cutscene with Annie, she moves toward the car, then to the front door, and heads inside. While she is indoors, approach from the left side of the house as you face it and slip into the laundry room quickly.
Loomis Log #3
Laurie's house is completely inaccessible for the majority of The Babysitters. The game blocks entry until the final story beat triggers. When the objective shifts and Laurie runs from the Wallace house back to her own home, let her go and follow her inside rather than cutting her off immediately.
Once you enter through the front door, look to the right side of the lower level. A dining table holds the last Loomis Log. Pick it up, then finish the chase to close out the chapter.

How do you confirm all three tapes were collected?
Every Loomis Log is a tape recording that builds out Michael Myers' backstory. After completing the chapter, open the Graveyard Menu and check whether all three tapes appear as playable entries. If a log shows up there, the game registered the pickup correctly.
If Log #2 is still missing after the chapter ends, the most likely cause is that Annie entered the laundry room before you reached the dryer, or the backyard sealed off during a story transition. A full Chapter 4 replay is the only fix.
For players collecting every tape across the full story, the earlier chapters follow a simpler two-log structure. The Chapter 1 Loomis Log locations guide covers the bar and gas station pickups, while the Chapter 2 Loomis Log locations guide walks through the record shop and graveyard house. Chapter 3 follows a similar format, and the Chapter 3 Loomis Log locations guide covers both of those tapes in detail.
