A **Shotgun** is one of three weapons in Granny: Chapter Two.

## Description

It can be found inside of the Weapon Safe, in the Secret Closet, behind the Movable Bookshelf, in the Living Room. The Weapon Key is required to obtain it. It can be used to knock Granny and Grandpa out for a longer amount of time than the Stun Gun or Iron Maiden, giving the Player 30 seconds more without them. For the exception of Extreme Mode, where the Shotgun only gives 15 additional seconds, making a total of 30 seconds, just like in the first Granny game. The Shotgun cannot be recharged infinitely, as there is limited ammo. Although if you unlock the shooting minigame, you can infinitely recharge until the game is over. You can also use it in the Jail Room to shoot the Red Button and open the Jail Cell. Using the shotgun is safer than using the Stun Gun, considering that you can reload it with the Ammo, available on the chest of Drawers in the Jail Room on Easy and Normal difficulties. Ammunition can be found in several places of the House, depending on the difficulty you're playing in. Check the Ammunition page for more information.

## Appearance

The **Shotgun**, unlike the one from the original Granny game, is a sawed-off double-barreled shotgun, break action breech loading type which can load two shells in both breeches at once, this makes it very useful to shoot both Granny and Grandpa in succession. It has two metal double barrels connected with a wooden forearm assembly , a metal trigger group assembly with two triggers with two firing pins for each barrel and its pistol grip is sawed off .

## Trivia

* This Shotgun is reused in Granny 3, but now, Grandpa holds it as his weapon. To take it from him you need to knock him out with the slingshot, or wait for him to go to sleep.
* This Shotgun can be immediately used once the Player manages to open the Weapon Safe, unlike the original Shotgun in Granny, which spawns as three disassembled parts and the Player has to find the three parts throughout the house somewhere and lace them together on the blueprint located at the Garage to use it.
	+ The Shotgun in the 3rd game is acquired from taking it from Grandpa(and it only appears when he is active), and he can take it back as well as use it.
* Oddly enough, it is not possible to kill Granny and Grandpa, even with a shotgun. Much like the original one.
* Both Granny and Grandpa can hear the shots from the Shotgun.
* The Shotgun fire is one of the few things that can alert Grandpa, with the other being the Iron Maiden, the vase, the cameras and when Granny is knocked out, since the sound of this objects are very strong.
* Despite being a Shotgun, it does not have a spread. Then again, it would be a little underpowered even if it did have spread, as it would be somewhat useless in further ranges.
* It is better to use the shotgun to shoot the Red Button in the Attic, since if you miss the shot with the Stun Gun then the Ammo will be stuck in the Jail Cell.
	+ However, on Extreme Mode, you might prefer taking the risk of using the Stun Gun instead, considering that you only have 2 pieces of Ammo and the using one of them for this purpose would be a waste. (The 30 seconds you get from knocking them out are really precious and better not be wasted.)
* The barrel latch that connects the barrels seems to be not present which would make it hard to keep the barrels from unlatching when discharged
* If you shoot the Shotgun and then drop it while it is in the process of recoil, once you pick back up the shotgun it will be farther back in your hands. It will reset and fix itself if you shoot it again.
