@gitb: None of us tried that in testing so I don't know if it's supposed to be a bonus or not. I assumed the gist of the rat story was what you found in the power room, and the crumpled page in the kitchen fireplace.
@poronty: Can you explain in more detail how you actually KO'd the ghost? When I try it, the frying pan just goes through him.

...in the Records Room (that's the one with the guy sitting and snoring right?) He writes of a "fake" window in that room and there is a dark panel compared to the rest. Is that a secret room? If so, where's the switch?
Also, thought the Mysterious key would open the chest in the wardens office. What opens that chest? and where does the mysterious key go?

secret records room.Hint:
The switch is not far from the window you're referring to, but not necessarily right next to it either. Further hint:
The switch is a particularly special item in a room filled with many non-specials of the same item.Giveaway:
The switch is a book and it's on the bookshelf across the room from the special window.Acolyte6 on 1/5/2013 at 02:05
Just finished it, but didn't find "the only secret" :tsktsk: I'll go back to it. Was multi-tasking with the FM "Sinkhole" while waiting on responses :p so I'm gonna dive back into that one :devil:

Playing at normal difficulty, and need some hints.
I have gotten the ring, sufficient loot, and I freed the sheriff's officer. I haven't completed any other objectives.
I also have gotten the rusted key but haven't found a place to use it.
Is the warden's office the office behind the guard who tells you repeatedly to beat it, on the same floor as the records room? If so, how do I get past the guard - using the skillet on him fails the cover objective.
What do I need to do next?

You need to visit the
old interrogation room.The key is on the guard that
locked the sherrif's officer up.poronty on 1/5/2013 at 07:09

I just
went up to it as close as possible without touching it and dying, and bop! That was it. And I was able to reproduce this same result once more, when I needed to reload for some other reason.
In the meantime I started the whole thing over and managed to finish. Fantastic little mission! The
grisly reveal towards the end took me by surprise :eww: props to the voice actors for making me queasy as hell!

:D I tried to do it several times and couldn't. My pan just keeps on going straight through.

I've got most of everything, figured out on my own, but I keep dying at the spirit. I don't know what I need to do to get past him. I've been everywhere. Is there a readable I missed, or item?

Yes, you need to bring something to the ghost.
Hint: Explore cell 6.
Bigger hint: You are looking for the signet ring that Shylock's father left there. Bring that with you and offer it to the ghost.
Outright spoiler: Turn off the power, get the Master Cell key from the patrolling archer in the cell block. Use it to open cell 6. Look above the bed for a removable brick. Take the ring that is behind that brick to the ghost and drop it on the floor.
