If you are playing on Hard or Expert, then you should have a closer look at the bottom of the water where you have found those water arrows. There may be an item that is difficult to see.

[SPOILER]
There are a total of seven keys:
3 blue basement keys, which open most of the doors in the basement, with the exception of those that lead to the crypt areas and the storage room under the kitchen.
These keys can be found: in the greenhouse, on patrol in barracks, and on cook in kitchen.
3 grey basement "master" keys which also open the metal door that leads to the storage room under kitchen.
These are located at: belt of old guard ("Benny") in basement, bed in storage room, and corpse (the fresh one, not those webbed guys) in spider room.
1 red crypts key, that opens only the metal doors leading to the secret crypt areas.
Available: somewhere in the SW storage room (the one with the pick and flare on the floor), or the water under that room, depending on difficulty.

Also I need help. [SPOILER] I'm in the area behind a portculis and can see a haunt walking around in a crypt area. How do I open the portculis? [/SPOILER]

You mean you do not like this type of mission (I am a bit confused about "had a blast") ?
Though, this is a matter of personal preferences, I like the story background and atmosphere of Thief I more than that of Thief II, though the latter has missions that are both larger and better designed for stealth.

He means it was lots of fun. It's one of those strange expressions. :D

Thanks for the help. I finished last night and found it to be very challenging. I'm not used to a 5 KO limit, but it was fun.
[SPOILER] I found several slide switches and one blade switch in the hallways, but I didn't notice what they did. No doors opened and no lights turned on or off. [/SPOILER]

All the on/off switches control lights, but sometimes in a different area of the building.
Anyway, having them in the off state is usually to your benefit. Beware that the jumper switch is already off, so flipping it can have unwanted effects :)

There's nothing wrong with bumping up an old thread like this to ask a question on this particular forum. I prefer it to having umpteen little threads, all with one or two questions in them.
The crypt is below the basement. You drop down through a hole in the floor of one room into a room occupied by a big spider. Walk through a hole in the SW corner that has some vines growing over it. At the end, you'll need the crypt key to unlock a small metal door.

I´m abit ashamed to say this, but I can´t find the mystic soul. I´ve looked around for 1 hour now and went through the whole building at least 3 times.. I can´t find anything :sweat:
Any tipps where to look for it?
