The Photo Album is an important item in OMORI, and the most prized possession of Basil. Three versions of the photo album are known to exist; a Headspace version, the real world version, and one containing "the truth".
Headspace
This Album contains the memories of Omori and his friends in Headspace. This album remains in Basil's possession and can only be looked at in his company.

"MARI is teaching everyone how to make flower crowns! OMORI and KEL are holding MARI's example. So pretty..."
"OMORI and KEL gave up and ran off, but AUBREY and I got the hang of it really fast!"
"HERO's still making his flower crown. It's taking him a little while, but he's getting it. You have to admire his persistence."
"Everyone's eating watermelons. So juicy! AUBREY has some seeds on her face. Maybe someone should tell her."
"KEL drinking a bottle of MILK, his favorite! I shouldn't get too close or he might get my camera wet."
"MARI had HERO take a picture of us. Everyone thinks a flower crown really suits me."
"HERO leaning in for a smooch! KEL looks so annoyed. Ah, brotherly love..."
"We're having a picnic today! MARI wanted to take a picture of everyone. Say cheese!"
"After eating, everyone fell asleep, except HERO and MARI. I'm getting kind of sleepy myself."
"KEL said he took a picture of himself on accident, but I don't believe him...."
"All of our feet in a circle! can you guess whose feet are whose?"
Real World

(12/25 - CHRISTMAS): My first photo! It's my best friend, SUNNY, trying out his new violin. He's starting to take lessons again so he can play at recitals with his sister, MARI. So exciting!
(2/18 - MY BIRTHDAY): It's my 12th birthday today! I thought my friends forgot, but they all surprised me with a strawberry cake. I feel so lucky... This year is looking to be a good year!
(2/18 MY BIRTHDAY): Another group photo. This was a little after I opened all my presents! MARI bought me this photo album, and everyone else bought me film for my camera. I'll try my best to use it all.
(2/18 - MY BIRTHDAY): Just KEL being KEL... So... many... party hats...
(2/18 MY BIRTHDAY): SUNNY playing a video game on the couch. SUNNY is a little shy, but he's a really good listener. I always end up venting to him when I get upset or stressed. Sometimes I feel like I'm bothering him, but he never seems to mind.
(2/18 - MY BIRTHDAY): MARI and HERO fell asleep on the couch. They look so cozy together... Hehe... I hope they don't mind the photo. MARI's dad might be kind of mad if he saw it...
(3/9): HERO and MARI washing the dishes from breakfast. We're staying over at MARI and SUNNY's this weekend. It's getting warmer lately so we're about to go to the park. KEL says there's a secret lake area behind some bushes, so we're all going to check it out!
(3/9): We're back from the park, but KEL is still full of energy. He challenged HERO to an arm-wrestling match, but we all know who's going to win... please go easy on him, HERO...
(3/9): Oof... Sorry, KEL... Better luck next time.
(3/10): KEL was still feeling a little sour about losing to HERO in arm-wrestling last night, so HERO decided to lean in for a smooch! KEL looks so annoyed. Ah, brotherly love...
(3/10): Me showing SUNNY a book I've been reading. MARI stole my camera and took this when I wasn't paying attention. I should really keep better track of my things.
(3/10): It's all of us cuddling with SUNNY's stuffed animals. He has so many, and they're all so soft! I wish I could just lay here forever.
(3/31): It's already the last day of March! We're having a picnic with MARI at our secret lake spot. MARI wanted to take pictures of everyone! Say cheese!
(3/31): After eating all the food, everyone fell asleep, except me, HERO, and MARI. Something unfortunate happened when I was taking the photo. Ahem... Thanks a lot, HECTOR. I'll have to cover it up with tape later.
(4/9): I caught MARI carrying SUNNY on the way home from school today. He must have fallen asleep on the bus. I thought it was so cute, so I got my camera out as quick as I could to snap this once-in-a-lifetime photo! Sigh... Sometimes I wish I had a sibling.
(4/21): MARI is teaching everyone how to make flower crowns! Here's SUNNY and KEL holding MARI's example. It looks perfect, doesn't it? If only MARI thought so, too.
(4/21): SUNNY and KEL gave up on making flower crowns and ran off, but AUBREY and I got the hang of it really fast! Everyone thinks a flower crown really suits me. Maybe just a flower is okay.
(4/21): HERO's still making his flower crown. It's taking him a little while, but he's getting there. You have to admire his persistence!
(4/29): It's raining super hard today! The rain always seems to come out of nowhere during springtime. AUBREY asked me to take a picture of her with her new raincoat. It's her favorite color, pink!
(4/29): AUBREY won't let KEL under the umbrella, but KEL seems to be taking it just fine. He says he likes how the rain tastes.
(4/29): Just KEL being KEL again... We went to HOBBEEZ, but the shop owner told KEL to leave his jacket outside since KEL was getting all his comics wet. Sorry, SHOPKEEP.
(5/25): It's been pretty busy with school lately, but we finally made time to get together and go to the park today. Here's KEL hanging his legs off a tree. He's such a good climber! I wish I was as fearless as him.
(5/25): MARI bought everyone popsicles, one of every flavor! SUNNY got lemon, HERO got root beer, KEL got orange, AUBREY got watermelon, and MARI got grape! Mine was banana... It tasted okay.
(5/25): All of our shoes in a circle! Can you guess whose shoes are whose?
(6/22): It's the first day of summer vacation, so we all wanted to celebrate by going to the beach! WATERMELON is AUBREY's favorite.
(6/22): KEL cooling off with some refreshing ORANGE JOE! I shouldn't get too close or he might get my camera wet. KEL is known to spill his drinks.
(6/22): We buried SUNNY in the sand! It took forever, but looks like he's enjoying himself. I wonder if he's going to need help getting out. I guess I'll keep him company until then.
(6/22): MARI says she wants to get a summer tan! I'm scared to fall asleep in the sun, since I get sunburned really easily. Hmm... I'm not sure what KEL is doing here, but he's probably having a good time.
(6/22): HERO sleeping on MARI. He's all tired out from swimming. Well... It seems like MARI won't be able to get her summer tan after all.
(6/22): We're about to head home, but I managed to catch one last photo with MARIO and HERO! They look so happy. A match made in heaven!
(7/20 - SUNNY'S BIRTHDAY): Yay! SUNNY is turning 12 today! Even though me, SUNNY, AUBREY, AND KEL are in the same school year, SUNNY is younger than all of us. He's the baby of the group, so we have to take care of him!
(7/20 SUNNY'S BIRTHDAY): SUNNY holding a super huge present, from MARI and HERO! Hmm... I wonder what it is.
(7/20 - SUNNY'S BIRTHDAY): You can't really tell from the photo, but MARI and HERO got SUNNY a giant building block set. SUNNY seems much more interested in the box though. He acts just like MARI's new kitten, MEWO!
(7/20 SUNNY'S BIRTHDAY): SUNNY won't leave the box, so KEL put a food bowl inside. I guess this box will be SUNNY and MEWO's new home.
(8/4): We're going beetle-catching today! Here's KEL, ready to pounce on his next victim! Oh, and SUNNY is there too. He looks kind of sleepy.
(8/4): MARI says this beetle is a giant stag. It suddenly fell from a tree and surprised everyone! HERO is too grossed out to look.
(8/14): Ta-da! All summer, we've been working on a treehouse in SUNNY's backyard and today it's finally finished! HERO and his dad did most of the heavy work, but AUBREY and I made paper plants to put in the window still!
(8/14): I went to the bathroom, and came back to this photo... KEL says he took a picture of himself on accident, but I don't believe him...
(8/16): All of us hanging out in our brand new treehouse! Looks like SUNNY is finally reading the book I showed him! I want to spend every day in here, but it's a shame that summer vacation is almost over. I hope we get to use this treehouse more next summer!
(8/18): We went to HOBBEEZ to read the latest edition of CAPT. SPACEBOY! Everyone's so into it right now! I'm sure it's all anyone is going to be talking about once school starts.
(9/6): I'm playing cards with KEL, HERO, and AUBREY. They're so easy to read. They can't hide anything on their faces! MARI baked everyone cookies from scratch. They were chocolate chip and super delicious, like always!
(9/6): Looks like I have the winning hand, hehe... But nobody knows that yet...
(9/9): It's the first day of school today! Me, SUNNY, KEL, and AUBREY are up bright and early. AUBREY is so photogenic!
(9/9): Sigh... Goodbye, summer! Until next year...
(9/9): SUNNY giving MARI a big hug! MARI doesn't come home until late now because she's taking extra classes to prepare for college. Me and SUNNY have been hanging out a lot, but I'm sure he still misses her a lot.
(9/22): MARI practicing her part for a big recital next month. We're all going to go watch! It's going to be MARI and SUNNY's first performance together, but I know they'll do just fine! We will all be showing our support from the audience!
(9/22): MARI getting a little camera shy, because she's made a small mistake. Don't worry, MARI! Just keep going! No one will even notice!
(9/22): After some begging, SUNNY came to join MARI for recital practice... Hehe... They're still working out some stuff, but they already sound so amazing! I know they're going to be great. Go, MARI! Go, SUNNY! You can do it!

Photo of a Wall - You heard some scoffing from behind the wall, but paid it no notice. You were in no mood to focus. You were overcame. You were sick of everything. You know it wasn't a big deal, but you couldn't control yourself.
Photo of a Broken Violin - Your precious violin lay shattered at the bottom of the staircase. You threw it in a rage. Your fingers were shaking in pain... practicing over and over... but you still make mistakes after mistakes. This was all a bad idea.
Photo of an Argument - Mari was yelling at you. You couldn't understand what she was saying. She didn't understand you at all... She didn't understand that you just weren't good enough. The only thing you hold onto was your anger. This pain... was it her fault?
Photo of a Fight - Mari blocked your path. She says that she isn't finished talking. She tells you not to run away... but why not? You did this all for her! Why was she yelling at you? You didn't understand...
Photo of a Murder - You lose all sense and push her down the staircase.
Photo of Silence - You watched Mari crush on top of your broken violin. The sound wakes you up to nothing but silence. You called out to her, but she doesn't answer. Your heart sinks into your stomach.
Photo of Panic - It happened in an instant. You didn't mean to do that. Well, you did mean to push her, didn't you? It was an accident, right? You're not sure. You tremble your way down the staircase.
Photo of Desperation - You call her name, but she doesn't answer. You sweep the bits of wood from her body. Nothing but scratches. You turn her around and see her face. She looks asleep... but then, why isn't she answering?
Photo of an Accomplice - You pick up Mari and drag her up the stairs. She feels lighter than you think. She just needs to lie down in a bed... She just needs some rest...
Photo of Disbelief - Your heart beats out of your chest. Your head feels fuzzy. You lose vision. You push the door to the bedroom open, and make your way to her bed. She's going to be okay, right? This is just a dream, right?
Photo of Anguish - You call her name over and over, but she doesn't answer. You watch the light from the window cast a shadow over her face. She's expressionless. You sink your fingers into her arm, and break down into tears.
Photo of Guilt - You want to scream for help, but you're afraid... you mumble to yourself... what if they ask what happened? There's no way you can tell them the truth. Who would be able to forgive him? Who would believe... that it was... an accident?
Photo of an Idea - A whisper comes from behind you, but you ignore it. A cry comes from behind you, but you ignore it. You cover your face with your arms. This isn't real. None of this real. Why won't you wake up?
Photo of Hopelessness - Everything appears dark. The shadows slither around you. You don't understand what is happening... Your head starts to feel fuzzy... You sink into a crevice in your mind... an empty white room.
Photo of Support - Your shoulders feel heavy. A familiar voice whispers something unspeakable. Your eyes widen. It tells you to follow its lead. It says... it's the only way out... It says... that everything will be okay.
Photo of Betrayal - You pick up Mari's body and lift it down the staircase. She feels lighter than you think. You feel multiple eyes shift their gaze to you. You keep your eyes toward the ground.
Photo of Hope - You hear the sliding of a familiar door. A voice tells you to walk. A gust of wind enters the room as the light outside engulfs you. You keep your eyes toward the ground.
Photo of a Tree - As you face forward, you listen to the crunching of the grass and feel the coolness of the wind. You hear the leaves in the trees riffle as the sun begins to set... but you try to ignore it. It's all just a dream...
Photo of a Branch - You lay down Mari’s body and look up for the first time. Small rays of light shine through the cracks in the leaves. You relish in its beauty and savor the moment. You think... even if this is all real, if you keep looking at the leaves, that... everything will be okay.
Photo of a Rope - You hear pacing, the crunching of the grass sifting back and forth. You think you see a figure pick something off the ground, but you’re not sure. You keep staring at the leaves overhead. Everything will be okay... You think... Everything will be okay.
Photo of Hands - You hear shuffling. You hear dragging... and creaking... and pulling. Something is happening, but you refuse to look away from the leaves. Your head feels fuzzy again. You bite your tongue and attempt to wake up one last time, but it’s no use... You’re still here.
Photo of a Lie - As you and Basil step into the house, you look back towards the trees and see it. The light engulfs it as it sways in the wind... For a moment, you feel at peace. You hate yourself for feeling this way. Is that all, then? Is everything going to be okay now?
Photo of Legs - You feel a cold hand clutch yours. You try to jerk away, but it squeezes back; unwilling to let you go. The hand drags you backward. You look up and see your best friend for the first time... Basil. You see the tears falling from his tired eyes as he looks ahead. You suddenly realize that none of this is a dream. All of this is real.
Photo of Something - Suddenly, Basil stops. You look up at his eyes... but this time, they’re wide awake, staring at Something. You turn your eyes toward it as well, though you wish you didn’t. An eye meets yours. Your heart sinks into your stomach. You shouldn’t have looked back... You just... shouldn’t... have looked...
