Nancy Drew: Message in a Haunted Mansion Hints

How can I stop the thief?

  • 1 of 8: Their fate is dangling in thin air.  Soon they'll think the sky is falling!
  • 2 of 8: Lower the boom!
  • 3 of 8: Hanging directly above is the crystal chandelier.
  • 4 of 8: This segment is timed, so move as quickly as you can to the hook that holds the rope to the chandelier.
  • 5 of 8: The left staircase creaks and will alert them.  Go the other way.
  • 6 of 8: Take the right staircase up and rush over the landing and down the other side of the stairs to zoom in on the hook.
  • 7 of 8: If you haven't played with the rope before now, click on the wrapped rope 3 times.
  • 8 of 8: When all else fails, restore a game prior to using the crowbar on the floor.  Unwrap the rope a bit by clicking twice on the hook.  Then it will take only once to make it fall.
