What an enjoyable halloween treat! Thanks so much! Finished 100 pounds short on loot. Thought the lit area above the stove was interesting as was the metal covering in the fireplace in the room next to the ante-room but could not find ways to get behind either area.

What scarecrows????? Haven't seen any. And what's with the pumpkins? We haven't been able to reach them. Is this in the end sequence after you have all objectives finished? We are very short on loot (1490).

I think I'm just dumb, I'm stuck AGAIN. Alright, so I entered the anteroom...found the [SPOILER]Hidden room inside the fireplace[/SPOILER] but can't find anything in it besides a book and a skeleton. I have a feeling that there's a key in here somewhere but I can't find it....help please? :erm:

The Mike - there's a switch in a corner (fairly high up).
Lynx67 - you'll be able to reach the pumpkins later :devil: I think the scarecrows are a case of mistaken identity ;)

There is another hard to find loot item:
[SPOILER] Go outside and around to the area with the skeletons and tombs. On your left is a ledge and a statue. Climb up and look behind the statue. [/SPOILER]

I have the ball and 1615 loot. I have opened all secret passages too. I can not find any more loot so I guess I am calling it quits until the loot list is posted or someone finds something I have not. It was an excellent mission, very enjoyable. :o)

I have found all of the loot, but I don't know what you didn't find. I have a complete list, but don't want to make a list on the internet if someone else is already working on it.

A couple more loot locations that may not be hidden to some but were to me at first:
[SPOILER]Robert (the skeleton next to where you get the ball) "carries" a pouch of loot, and there are two or three coins on the floor of the well bottom where he is.[/SPOILER]
[SPOILER]Upstairs, you take a left off a hallway to get to the "lighthouse" room (the room with the bizarre "light" behind glass). As soon as you take that left, there's a set of three shelves set into the opposite wall (all dark-colored and thus easy to miss) with several treasures on them - not just at eye level but above eye level.[/SPOILER]

Just had to come over to post a big thank you and congrats to you, MadWolf- this mission is fantastic. You're getting better and better (and that's saying a lot onsidering how incredible Skeletons was) and I can't wait for your next mission to come out.

Finally! \o/
[SPOILER]The necklace in the attic and the map/blueprint thingy on the shelf in the "lighthouse" room were what I was missing.[/SPOILER]
Thanks, Melissa and prjames! :thumb:
Pretty fun mission, though it did turn into a loot hunt. I loved the spookiness. [SPOILER]The poltergeist scared the crap outta me! Just taffin' along, then BAM! a barrel flies at me out of nowhere. The kitchen ghost was scary, too. I tried once or twice to take him out, and got killed both times. Got killed again when I was re-searching the room for loot I might have missed and took an uncautious step on that fargan tile floor. Comic relief moment: at one point I tried getting rid of the invisible ghost, thinking it might be just an invisible Pagan- by following the sound and blindly attacking with my broomstick. :laff: Followed him around for quite a while before I realized a) he was neutral and b) there was nothing to hit. SWISH! SWISH! SWISH! SWISH! :o [/SPOILER]
