Are the 3 escape routes different endings?

IllFonic has said Halloween's Story Mode includes multiple endings determined by player actions.Into the Shadows also contains three confirmed escape routes: Train Tracks, Cornfield and Sewer / River. This guide can confirm those three routes from the game's Story data. It cannot, from that same data, prove that each route is an official one-to-one ending category. For that reason the pages label them as escape routes, while still answering ending-related questions.
