Basically, they're worth unlocking. Particularly worth seeing is Chapter 1's Nome Hat - it's an entire play area that you'll never see if you don't chase one of those little Nome guys. A few hats are unlocked by other means, but most of the hats can be found as you progress normally. Check out the ordered list of locations below in our full-text guide.

Raccoon skin hat: Enter the spooky house in the forest. After leaving the kitchen, enter the hallway and go to the foreground. On the left you will find the entrance hall - the hat is on the carpet.
Nome hat: The names of making an appearance! Sort of. In the attic of the house, in the room with the hanger key, check behind the dresser drawer that you need to remove to leave the area. A name will appear! Have the Kid jump after you and chase him into the upper attic. Follow him and walk around the room, until he leads you into another dark room. This is the longest bonus challenge in the game, so you don't want to miss it.
Rain cap: After escaping the hunter for the first time through the rabbit hole, you will have to jump over a chasm with the help of your friend. In front, there is a bunch of metal cages. Climb into the cages and jump on the hanging cage, then jump on it until it falls and opens.
Chapter 2: 2 hats
Ball hat: You just run after that without realizing it. In the schoolyard, before climbing the rope, there is a hat in the dumpster near the front door. Go to the stairs of the locked front door and jump on the dumpster to retrieve it.
Bucket hat: At the beginning of the bookcase, you will have to push the ladder to the right to get on the high shelf. Don't push the ladder all the way to the right - there is a high shelf that you can reach at the very top of the ladder with the bucket hat.
chapter 3: 2 hats
Teddy bear hat: To the right of the x-ray machine, you will find a living room with three teddy bears. In the back right corner of the room, use the stool to jump to the cabinet and climb up. This is where you will find a teddy bear head.
Bandages hat: Downstairs in the mortuary autopsy room where you have to navigate by pulling on the body cabinets, there is a cabinet to the left of the examination table against the back wall. Open it up to find this easy-to-miss mask.
Chapter 4: 2 hats
Postman hat: Once the remote control is obtained, you enter a room filled with mailboxes. Go down to the lower area and look on the left for a stack of letters. Go through this vent to find the police hat.
Baker's hat: In the store flooded with electrified water, take the cart and move it to the shelf closest to the window you used to enter the room on the left. Go up on the shelf to find this little hat against the back wall.
