Thanks Nightwalker! You have already answered a multitude of mission questions for me when I only lurked these forums, so I owe you a million and one.
Old Lady?! Puhleeze!! [SPOILER]I saw your age in one of the Durant threads; a woman in her 50's is not an old lady. I saw an old girlfriend last week who is now 57, and she's still extremely sexy. FYI: we started seeing each other when I was 17 so maybe I like them mature, or perhaps they like me immature![/SPOILER]
Thanks again, you are a goddess!:D

I just discovered this WONDERFUL mission about a week ago and am stuck on something that apparently no one else is having problems with.
Where is the crypt?
I've done just about everything there is to do in this mission and still haven't found the crypt. So I can't meet the ghost and can't get the new objectives. I have gone swimming in the sewers until I stink but still can't find the ghost or the crypts. I found a mechanist guy patrolling and I thought he was an enemy so I killed him with a fire arrow. That wasn't the guy I was supposed to meet, was it? I hope not because if it was, I'll have to start all over again.
Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks.

It's on the left as you swim towards the pipe that leads to the well under the mansion. If it helps, it's really close to the sewer entrance in front of the art dealer's house.

Thank you! I had entered through that sewer opening before but didn't look behind me. Shame on me! Since I couldn't find this area early in the game, I have only 2 water arrows at this point and can't pick my way into the crypt doors. So I will probably have to start over but at least now I know where to go. But that reminds me... how DO I get into those doors? Neither of my lockpicks appears to work. Did I miss something?
Thanks again, Anarchic Fox!

There's a haunt patrolling on a ledge down in the sewers. (He's just outside the basement door from the Mechanist building, but you can find him by just sloshing around down there. You don't have to come through the building.) He has the crypt key. :)

If I remember right, it's on[SPOILER]the belt of the haunt that patrols beneath the Mechanist complex. This creature can be found by swimming to one end of the sewer system.[/SPOILER]
Otherwise, try searching the Mechanist church and the hotel room.

Jump in sewer, keep going till you find what looks like may be a dead end with 2 grates, go away, get angry, kill someone then look in that one place again, examine the haunt, oooooo, a shiney thing, tis be a key. Pickpocket, backstab or duel the haunt for its key, go to crypt. Use key on door, the doors 'magicaly' open
(Note: May be more than 1 dead end looking grated, oh well you know what I mean!)

I've read the most recent messages regards this FM, but it doesn't speak to my problem.
Everything is done except for 2 things. My loot total is only 2632 (need 2650). So close !!!!
And I missed one of the 2 secrets. But I think I know where it is. [SPOILER]Inside the front entrance to Grimworth & dePerrin building, you turn left to a coat check? area. One of the wall hangers turns when frobbed. But I can't find what it opens. Is this the second secret. Or is it tied in with a small red button you push upstairs in someones room, which also doesn't seem to do anything. I read a letter somewhere that mentioned two things had to be triggered at the same time. Awkward to do with patrols lurking around.[/SPOILER]
As far as getting the extra 18 in loot, any ideas would be greatly appreciated. I found the coin in the pool. That was pretty obscure. Most of the others were easy enough to spot. I'm hoping there is some loot where the second secret is. I spent a long long time on this FM, but it is very enjoyable.

[SPOILER]You have to go upstairs and push that button, then go back down and frob the coathook. A painting on the wall moves, but only for a short period of time and then it closes again, so you have to be quick to get the loot. That should give you enough to finish.Did you find the secret hiding place in the master bedroom of the mansion? If you frob the telescope on the balcony and run back into the bedroom quickly, you'll see a painting in there has moved aside to show you some loot and a kill button for the house alarm. :) As for the secrets, one is in the mansion and one is on a rooftop.[/SPOILER]
