Step 7: Close the door and light up the candle again immediately.
You have just invited the Midnight Man to your place.
Now the midnight game starts.
You should walk around the house in the dark with a lit candle in your hand. Your goal is to avoid a meeting with Midnight Man until 3:33 at all costs. If your candle goes out this means Midnight Man is close to you. You must light the candle again in the next ten seconds, in other case the Midnight Man will catch you. The candle is your only defense.

- If you manage to light a candle for this short period of time, you can continue to move around the house, hiding from the Midnight Man.
- If you are unable to light a candle quickly, you should immediately sprinkle salt around yourself, making a circle. You must stay in the circle of salt until 3:33 come. The salt is your last line of defense. Do not leave the circle. In other case, the Midnight Man will catch you.
- If you made it past until 3:33, this means you won the midnight game. Whatever happens, the Midnight Man will leave at 3:33 am, and if you're still alive, you can go sleep.
- If you stay at the same position all the game long, it will be easier for the Midnight Man to find you. It is strongly recommended not to stop moving during the game.

The proof:
"I lit a candle and walked around the house in fear about ten minutes. Then I heard a door slam somewhere, and I started to cry. It was about three o'clock when I felt the bitter cold. Then, as it seems to me, I heard a loud noise on the first floor in the bathroom – it was about 3:30. I stopped for a while, then I started forward again. As soon as I took a step, I saw someone's silhouette and my candle went out. He stood right in front of me, so I dropped the candle, ripped the package of salt and drew a salt circle on the floor – it was the fastest action in the history of mankind. I had stayed in a circle about three minutes, trembling with fear like a leaf. Then I heard the entrance door opening and my friends bursting into the house, shouting my name. The light was turned on and I saw my friends staring at me. I lost consciousness. I had never felt such fright in my life. I do not recommend to play the midnight game"
