Spirit in the Nexus
After collecting all the effects, there will be a spirit standing near the shrine's entrance the next time you enter the spirit world. Interacting with the spirit will cause the screen to fade and the word LEAVE will pop up on the screen. The spirit will disappear afterwards and won't appear again if you wake up and enter the spirit world.

Creature in the Underwater Ship
In the dark room where you get the rusty key, a creature (visible only by it's gigantic cat-like eyes) may appear on entering and will rush you. The screen then goes black and you're kicked out of the spirit world. It is unclear what triggers this event.
