The Black Mirror Hints
How can I remove the boards from the door in the attic?
1 of 9: NOTE: This door is at the far left end of the attic area. This screen scrolls as you walk along, so keep walking until you find the door.
2 of 9: As Samuel notes when you try the door, he can't remove the boards with his bare hands. You'll need to get him some sort of tool.
3 of 9: Look somewhere that tools are usually kept.
4 of 9: You won't find any within the manor, so go explore the grounds.
5 of 9: Go inside the stable building.
6 of 9: Search the workbench for tools.
7 of 9: Look inside the drawer on the workbench.
8 of 9: There's a claw hammer in there. Click on it to pick it up.
9 of 9: Once you have the hammer, return to the attic and use it on the boarded-over door.
