Margaret you are the best....thank you.

you also have to use the buckshot..in a drum

dig through with your cane

Hi MaG and Margaret. Couldn't go to bed until problem sorted. I went back to a saved game before I played the piano. Stayed on the right side of the fireplace after I got the lamp, this time I got the hand icon so have been able to move into the fireplace. Thanks mucho, will probably be back.

I'm very happy that you succeeded to go in Upsydaisy. now I'm going to bed and I'll not dream of a demon. it's midnight here in my country so after a good sleep I be ready for that demon tomorrow (lol)

How do I get the book at the alchemist. I did look at the post way back on page 5 or 6, but it doesn't quite work for me...can I get a little bit more of a nudge?

Sly One ,Cant remember correctly but try this..pull lever, t then hit spacebar the f and then pull lever again.

I am at the point where I need to scare the graveyard keeper. I believe I need a skull, but I don't know where to find one.

Have you been to the sloop? (boat)

no, I haven't. I have been down to the docks a couple of times, but I don't get any action icons when I approach the small boats that are docked there.

In that case,I don't think that you are ready for scaring yet. Have you met the old woman?

I met the old woman quite a while ago. Then I ran to the wall and saw the torn cloth. I left, searched the rooms at the mansion, spoke with Edward, the cook, the butler the Lord of the mansion. I got the eel from Inventor Tirell. I have been to the crime scene once with the man from town. I am not able to get into the house near the bridge yet. The butler tells me that Edward is on the mountain painting. I clicked on the scarecrow with a candle and he said that he needs a skull. What next? By the way, thanks for your help!

Just finished up with Master Tirrell...what now?

I went to the cemetary and talkd to the graveyard keeper. He thought I was demon and wouldn't give me the key to the crypt. Now I am stuck!

Have you visited the old woman at home?have you talked about a potion?

no. How do I get to the old woman's house?

have you tried using the map? hit the M key

I'll give it a try and let you know!

it has to be on your map to get there.Talk to her in the Cemetary where she is tending plots.

I've gone back to the old woman's house after I left Master Tirrell and she was dead (I did do the rune puzzle and gave her the ingredients for the potion). All I got however when I examined her was a knife...no potion. Is that what is supposed to happen? Is there a potion to get? I'm a little confused. I thought the reason for going there in the first place was to get a potion? Please help?

Sly,

That's how it is supposed to be. Did you check the footprints outside the door?

Yes I did Mag..thanks. What now? Do I go back to cemetary and use the eel?

sorry, MaG I now know what you mean about the footsteps. I think I will take a break...I may even wait for a walkthrough to come around. Good game, though. Everyone has been wonderful with all of the help. Incredible Team Gameboomers are. Anyway, break time for me. I'll probably be back....tomorrow.

You can do it. No problem.
The walkthrough is coming. Just placing some finishing touches.

Yes, the members are wonderful.

Just finished it this morning, i must say that the end puzzle wasn't as difficult as some of the previous ones. Not a lengthy end game cut scene either but i am glad i got this game. A tough one and although i was stuck quite a few times, i didn't find any points where i wasn't able to proceed. I'll try and help (from what i can remember and hasn't been asnwered so far)

This is my first forum experience, so pardon any gaffs.
I need to get into Cookes house. I have the crowbar, the witch is dead and her house does not show up on the map any more. No one will talk to me, I'm out of ideas. Does anybody have any suggestions.
Thanks in advance.

I'm down where Patrick's body was found. I have tried to go up the cliff, but it won't let me. I used the "x" key to get a close-up of where Patrick was found and I found the eye icon. How do I look at the eye icon thing. I've tried all keys and it won't do anything.
