The Black Mirror Hints
What evidence am I supposed to find at the lighthouse?
1 of 8: This *is* the scene of one of those horrid murders!
2 of 8: How about the usual evil red symbol that's present at all these mysterious murder scenes?
3 of 8: There's only one interactive spot in the whole area, so that must be where the symbol is.
4 of 8: Just to the left of the big hole-in-the-wall entrance to the lighthouse is a hole in the masonry. However, it's too dark inside to see anything.
5 of 8: What did you do in Chapter III when it was too dark to explore that wardrobe with the secret passage?
6 of 8: You used your alcohol lighter to light up your life, of course! Use it again here.
7 of 8: There's the symbol! Record it as before by using William's diary on it.
8 of 8: You can now leave the area. Samuel decides to go to Hermann's House next.
