The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Game Add-Ons (DLC) Hints

How do I move on from this room?

  • 1 of 7: Serana mentions the possibility of a secret passage, so look around for a gimmick that'll open it.
  • 2 of 7: The two open coffins in the southern corner look kind of promising, but it turns out that all you can do is sleep in them. Do check between them for a silver sword and some vampire royal armor, though.
  • 3 of 7: The raised floor section in the room's eastern corner is where you need to be looking.
  • 4 of 7: Notice the two wall-mounted candlesticks.
  • 5 of 7: The left one isn't burning.
  • 6 of 7: That's a sure sign of a secret door gimmick. (At least in this game series.)
  • 7 of 7: Sure 'nuff, the unlit candlestick is interactive. Activate it to open the secret passage.
