Reported Softlock and Crash Locations for Typical Speedrun Play

Some of these have been single event only. Wanted to document a bunch for archival. Multiple occurrences or consistent events are capitalized. The uncommon tag is used to indicate something not consistent but also not rare.

[SOFTLOCK] With Infinite Blizzard Glitch, entering many stealth sections will cause them to be unbeatable due to damaging enemies near triggers. Restart from checkpoint to clear this.
[Softlock] Upon breaking the walking scene where you first use the Medallion of the White Wolf. Returning to the trigger may cause Gabriel to stop moving. This might be related to weapon switching.
[SOFTLOCK] With magic drain Infinite Blizzard Glitch, you are locked out of magic necessary to progress the Gorgons fight. This is especially true in Phase 3 for freezing the hand and then breaking the stone skin.
[SOFTLOCK] With Infinite Blizzard Glitch, at the end of the Carmilla section, Blizzard will damage both Maries and cause them to drop. You need to restart from checkpoint, losing Blizzard, to fix this. You can also take a guess and immediately try to trigger the fight. This is a 50/50 chance, even on restart.
[Softlock, uncommon] Running out of Mist while hitting a trigger can lock you in Mist Form or cause you to not regenerate the Mist ability.
[SOFTLOCK] With Infinite Blizzard Glitch, the Toymaker's successful grab attack can cause a variety of glitched states.
[SOFTLOCK] With Infinite Blizzard Glitch, freezing Abaddon during his ~130% and ~75% Life bar attacks. 

[Crash] When entering the cutscene for the group shower room.
[Crash] On the train, upon possessing the Golgoth Guard and attempting to open the door.
[Crash] At Victor fight, at the start of the unskippable Dark Crystal cutscene.
[Crash, uncommon] Triggering the final QTE scene in the Zobek fight after crossing the blade wall.
[Crash] First cutscene after the unskippable one at the Third Acolyte summoning ceremony.

[Note] Certain QTE enemy attacks will not break correctly if you hold Block during the animation. This might be true for more buttons.
[NOTE] With Infinite Blizzard Glitch, the stone wall the Gorgons make must be broken from the sides. Attempts to break from the front are frozen.
