The Lost Crown: A Ghost-Hunting Adventure Hints
Where can I find the missing crank handle?
1 of 7: The handle is out here in the Pinnacles area.
2 of 7: Head right from Hardacre's location, then head to the south-east of the screen by the lanterns. Next, head to the right, and one screen forward. You will come across an anchor at the upper-right of the screen.
3 of 7: Examine that anchor, and you will get a close-up on a pile of rubbish.
4 of 7: There are four areas of this rubbish that you need to click on, each exposing a small amount of the crank handle.
5 of 7: Click the four areas and you can take the handle.
6 of 7: You can then return it to the life bell and use it to ring the bell.
7 of 7: Doing so will trigger a cut-scene, and also lure Hardacre away from his equipment on the rocks.
