  • 2 of 12: Before you can progress, you'll need to find three objects.
  • 3 of 12: You'll need to find a crowbar, a map, and a photograph.
  • 4 of 12: Now that you've found the three objects, walk around the attic to explore further.
  • 5 of 12: In particular, explore the circular alcove in the back right corner of the room.
  • 6 of 12: When you try to leave the alcove, there will be a brief cut-scene.
  • 7 of 12: Now explore the alcove again.
  • 8 of 12: Pay particular attention to the boarded-up window.
  • 9 of 12: You'll need to remove the boards.
  • 10 of 12: Take a closer look out the window.
  • 11 of 12: It's the Loch Ness monster.
