The Lost Crown: A Ghost-Hunting Adventure Hints
How can I "borrow" the telescope from the museum?
1 of 9: In order to get the telescope, you are going to need to fool the security cameras.
2 of 9: You will need two tools to do so. We're going to use an old standard for tricking these things.
3 of 9: We are going to place a still image of the room being monitored over the camera lens so that it still looks like the camera is working.
4 of 9: One of these tools will only be collectable once you have solved the second clue of Nanny Noah's Treasure Hunt.
5 of 9: If you have the wire from the third clue, you can affix it to the front of the camera.
6 of 9: You then need to find a way to take a photograph of the room.
7 of 9: There is only one spot in that room from which you can take a photograph -- a spot from which the camera cannot see you.
8 of 9: Stand directly under the camera, and take a photograph of the telescope in its case.
9 of 9: Then, affix this picture to the wire tied to the security camera, and you will be able to take the telescope without Professor Oogle being any the wiser.
