Scratches Hints
What is there to do here?
1 of 7: The first step is to explore -- everywhere that you can. There are a few places where you can go into a close-up view of something. Be sure to look for all of those.
2 of 7: Take special note of the two coffins at the back of the main ground-floor room of the crypt.
3 of 7: You can look more closely at these coffins -- even open them up (a grisly sight, in one case). Also, be sure to read the plaques attached beneath them.
4 of 7: A set of stairs will take you to a lower level where there are more caskets.
5 of 7: One in particular seems to be interesting -- one that is much smaller than the rest. You will need to learn more about this particular casket -- or more specifically the plaque underneath it.
6 of 7: It is necessary to read this plaque, however, it is much too dark in the lower of the crypt to read it.
7 of 7: Since the plaque is not removable, it will be necessary to bring more light to the plaque.
