Scratches Hints

What clue can I gain from the crypt?

1 of 4: From the crypt, you should have discovered a small casket on the lower level -- evidently that of the Blackwood's dead son.
2 of 4:
The plaque underneath the casket will provide a clue. However, when you first arrive at the crypt, the plaque is to dark to read.
- How can I bring more light to the lower level of the crypt?
3 of 4: While you were not able to read the entire plaque beneath that casket, you should be able to see a single letter.
4 of 4: This tells you that the child's name began with the letter "R".
