Black Dahlia Hints
How do I get out of this dark wine cellar?
1 of 11: Climb the stairs and look through the hole in the door. It is obvious Jim must find another way.
2 of 11: While standing at the top of the stairs, turn around. Move the light around directly in front of you and around the room.
3 of 11: Keep looking until Jim says something similar to "I wonder what that is?"
4 of 11: Find a well, a pulley, and a winch.
5 of 11: Work the winch properly to lower the pulley so Jim can climb on.
6 of 11: The left knob sets the brake, and you certainly want to do that. Pull the left handle down.
7 of 11: The right knob aligns the gears. Since you want the pulley to drop, move the right handle up. The rope will release.
8 of 11: Set the gears once more. The brake can stay where it is.
9 of 11: Move the right handle down again. (Both knobs should be in the down position.)
10 of 11: Leave the winch. Turn right to get back to the well.
