Voodoo

I am playing this great game. I need a little help. I am in Act II. I have the shovel, charcoal, magnet.A saw the crosses on the gravestone. I know that three crosses are the key to the temple, whatever that means. I know I am trying to find a cure for Le Croix, but I don't know what to do. Can anyone help?

Glenna:
I am stuck in the same spot-have tried everything with everything. Even discovered a hole in front porch I cannot do anything to. This is a good game, but I'm getting frustrated. Maybe we have incurred one of the voodoo curses.
Carole

I am stuck about the same place except I also have a shovel, a sign and the post it was on, Where did you get the charcoal????

I can't do anything with the hole - but I did use the needle on the haystack and it says I can't get close enough. I saw the clothesline - but can't get it down or off.

Great game!!

Laura

Hi Laura,
you need to get the clothesline in your inventory to enlarge the magnet

Hi Glenna,
you need to get the needle out of the haystack.
Before you can start the ritual you also need a voodoodoll.

CU Sylvia

Thanks for the advice. You get the charcoal by using the shovel on the fire in the fireside.

Laura-use the "take" icon on clothesline. I had to click it many times in many spots, but achieved success.
Carole

Hi Sylvia!
I have the needle, rope with magnet attached. I need to make a voodoo doll. Any help would be appreciated. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="confused.gif" />

Glenna,
you need to form a voodoo doll with bee-wax + hair! A lit torch is very helpfull with the bees.

CU, Sylvia

Carole,
your next step is to make a voodoo-doll, than you should go to the temple.
How do you know you are supposed to make a doll?
Read the voodoo book: Lay the trick

Laura,
i keep my fingers crossed - just don

Sylvia-I only have a "Voodoo Colors" book. Is that what you have referred to? Do I need to find another book? If so, where in the heck is it?
Thanks for the help-you are so far ahead of me.
Carole

Take a look inside the temple, there you will find the voodoo book I am talking about and the torch But you have to find the golden key first to open the door.

CU Sylvia

I thought this was the main problem all along - that none of us have figured out how to get the temple key. *deep breaths*

Alright - back to the 3 crosses enigma. The grave next to the back row where they are all crosses is the only one that says anything different - it is a fresh grave with an old grave stone. I have dug, bagged, grabbed every cross, grave in the cemetary. I noticed that the old side of the map shows three crosses where the right sarcaphogas is. Nada.

Those out there who have finished this part - a nudge - no make that a shove would be very very helpful here. No temple - no torch - no bees - no doll - no moving on to the next chapter.

Laura

Like Laura said, 3 crosses and one circle around.
Means DICK with your spade on the 3. grave!!! I mean the grave on the left side of the new fresh grave. Try it often, it did not work on the first time by me.

CU, Sylvia

It finally worked for me. Try clicking in upper left corner of grave (also, make sure your cursor is the one that looks like 2 cogs)

I am in the temple trying to do the ritual. I've lit the candle. Placed the voodoo doll and stuck in the pin and banged on the drums. Now I'm supposed to feed the god. I assume that means the bowl of blood, but I've clicked the bowl all over the temple and nothing happens. Am I supposed to feed the god something else or is it a matter of pixel hunting? HEEEEEELP!! <img border="0" alt="" title="" src="graemlins/woozy.gif" />

Lorryrose,

You have to beat the drums until you get a cutscene. Then you can feed the god. Act 3 and stuck already lol.

Patricia

Hi Voodoo-Friends,

my drums worked in this way: low, 2xhigh, 2xlow, high, low. And I had to repeat this 4-5 times.

Greetings from Germany
Sigi

Ok finally beat the drum puzzle - urk inadvertant bad pun.

I am in Act 3, Have the cat tails, granpa pic, vase, new needle and am spying away. It looks as though I need to get some folks moved around or to leave the house.

Other than picking up stuff I am clueless. I'll see if I run across anything else. Glenna - aren't you in ACT 3.

As for the drums - the advice to do them over again is what worked for me. I beat them in the same order, Low, 2X High, 2X Low, High , Low.

Laura

Hi Laura,

great you made it to the III. Act
Yust a tip talk, talk and talk to the people in the house over and over again, visit at the cemetary the Voodoo Dr. and talk again.

Cu, Sylvia

Hi Sylvia,

Act 4, have granpas pic any hints on how to get the other 2 photos, I have all the other ingredients.

Patricia

Hi Patricia,

Sahras Image: try to take it and when Grandpa said you have to put it back - quickly put LeNoir Image back (not Sahras)

Davids Image is a little bit harder to get, I worked on it for several hours. Let see, if you can figure it out. For now I give you the tip: mouse trap, storage room, some stalkes

CU Sylvia

Carole,
it`s time to get your axe back out - try it on the snake

CU, Sylvia

Glenna,
did you try to hit the snakes head?

CU, Sylvia

I got the snake! I can't find a picture of Le Noir to substitue for Sarah's.

Of course I don't have David's picture yet, but I have been in storeroom....
What I can't catch is the bees ! Made the "sticky" but can't find anywhere to put it. Can anyone help a pathetic gamer who is severely addicted to this hair-pulling game?

P.S. It's possible to semi-understand the German forum using Babelfish. Looks like the game becomes increasingly difficult.

Yapette,
Do you got the honey and the glue on your sticky?
If so, visit the bees.

Glenna,
talk to David.

CU, Sylvia

Carole,
the vase were the stalkes was in it is the correct one (large bottle)! Did you used the knife on the snake in your inventory?
How does the kitchen cabinet looks, did you open the top right door?

CU, Sylvia

Sylvia, I have the sheds of snake, but have not been able to open the cabinet. Knife, axe, needle,candlewax,in fact everything I have in inventory, does not work, neither does any of the take,open, etc. action icons. PLEASE help me.
Carole

Okay, okay! I need some help with getting David's picture. I have evrything else. How do I get into the storage room? What do I do there? I have tried everything I can think of, but no luck. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="confused.gif" />

Glenna, that storage room took me a while. Looked for light everywhere. If you want just a hint-the top of the masoleum is kind of interesting.
Still need help with that cabinet, must have lost my touch with the axe.
Carole

And I can't catch anything
Put trap in storeroom (w/ no bait?): opened door/waited...closed door/waited. Ran around & came back. Nothing. I'm going to HEB for spirits

No bait necessary. Just spring the trap with.....

Ahhhhh...thanks for sticking with me. What I failed to notice for the last 24 hrs. was " ".
Also got the cupboard open, thanks to you knowing that it's possible.
Onward to Sarita....

I finally figured out that bee thing by myself, but thanks for the tip. I also apologized profusely for the grave desecration, so she traded with me. Now I'm trying to figure out breakfast. Those darn chickens aren't even afraid of the axe. Someone probably told them I am trying to be a kinder more gentle person.
Carole

Thats good Carol, put the axe back in your inventory and just "take" the nest. I thing they may give you than an egg to such a nice lady.
Sylvia

Okay I give up, how do you open the kitchen cabinet.

Patricia

Please, someone tell me how to get into the storage room.

Hiya Judy,

You need a light after gettin the key from David. Remember what David said about the Mausoleum dome - that it is different something or rather. Maybe check that out. Climb up there.

Now -- I'm stuck also! Can't get a mouse on mouse trap and can't get David's picture! Need a hint, nudge or push!

MaG

Just load the empty moustrap and put it in the storage room. Go back in the bedroom and use the mouse trap with something long out off your inventory.
If Sahra looks quickly take David

How do I get a key from David? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="confused.gif" />

I need help! I am trying to trip the trap. That sounds funny doesn't it?! I think I am using the right thing. I am in the bedroom trying to use the bunch of long things and when I try to use them with the trap, it says "nothing happens". What am I doing wrong? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="confused.gif" />

Glenna: "Use" trap in inventory to set it and then place it. I'm at 568 points and am semi-stuck but not really wanting this to end. What a great game.
Carole

I've got the Goofer Dust and the Snake Curse. I have managed to open the kitchen cabinet and take the contents. Now what? I assume I have to cook something. In an earlier post someone said to "take" the chicken nest. No way, no how despite trying several times, can I get the nest. What am I missing? What do I do next?

First you must spread the Snake Curse.
Big spoiler:

combine it with the hole under the porch. Only then will you progress to the next act...when you can cook up a hearty breakfast.

Help with breakfast please. Have 3 eggs cooked and in egg cups, rolls, tea, honey, teapot filled with posion and water, tray, cups and dishes, but can't do anymore. Have key to desk but granpa is still in his room and wont get up.

Patricia

You need to talk to grandpa, tell him breakfast is ready, and he will leave the room. Open Grandpa`s desk and you will find the last item what you are missing for the breakfast!!!
Than serve it to the hole family.

Sylvia

I have 499 points and the looking for the secret to sending in the dead.

I feel fairly sure that the dome is onvolved. Used the lantern on the platform again - nothing leaps out.. Have scoped out the odd columns or knobs - do I need some reflecting device??

A hint only appreciated here.

Laura

Hi Laura,
do you got the chicken and the bottle with a message in it?

CU Sylvia

How do one get this darn chicken and make him black??? I think I use the coal but he keeps on making my hands bloody???

MaG Ow! Ow! Ow!

Use the crumb with glue on the mouth of the chicken and "take" it.
Sylvia

Sylvia: I ned another hint. Have a green and yellow globe and have tried all sorts of combinations of them in cones. Do I need more globes or what? Thanks.
Carole

Carole,
yes you need two more globes. Aren`t there 4 cones?
Sylvia

Pleeeeeese! I still need to know how to get the storage room key from David.

Judy,
just talk to him. He will give the key to you automaticly and the image of Le Noir.
Sylvia

I've got all the items necessary for breakfast including the tea from Grampa's room. I have the goofer dust in the teapot plus hotwater. How do I make the tea using the teaball?

Oops, I realized I don't have the tea, just the tea ball. So what do I give Lulu in order to get the tea from her?

Hi ispace,

Go down to the living room and use the sofa - you might find a surprise under the sofa cushion to satisfy Lula - remember her clue!!

I'm 643 points and about to pound my bald head on the wall again for the third time.

MaG

I'm stuck at 612. Does anyone know where the blue globe is?

Hi,

Remember the clue said by Lula - When you aim at the death, you will hit the stream of existence below grounds.

Go to the cemetery with a spade then. There are Celts in Lousiana presumably.

MaG

As usual, I need a little more help than others. I think Madame Sarita put a curse on me. I can't think too good. Can someone tell me how to get the eggs from the chickens? I have the rolls, honey, and tea from Lulu.

I'm stuck trying to build, steal or stumble upon a cross (literal or figurative). I'll be lurking here until the end....

Whatever will I do tomorrow without my voodoo fix?
Think I'll start again from the beginning (only did that with one game: Grim Fandango).

I can't find the ball for the tea. Please help.
Katie

Hi Kate,

It's in Grandpa's room under lock and key (check plant stand). Need to get Grandpa outta ther first.

MaG

PS: Have a barebones walkthrough of Voodoo about done. Anybody needs one that is still unedited mail me.

How do I get the note out of the bottle? I've walked around whacking it on every hard surface I've come to but the bottle won't break.

Never mind......I just figured it out.

Okay, I've got the Black Sacrifice. Now what do I do. It doesn't work anywhere in the temple. Is there something else I must do first?
What does the inverted saint clue refer to?

Hi ispace,

Did you check the drawer of the table at the foyer at Loa House and the sewing basket at the bedroom?

Try the blackened cluck cluck on the altar after placing the inverted saint where it should go .... at the 'center'.

MaG

Ispace, where I have been stuck all evening. After I created the "light-pattern," what next? A hint anyone?

I have the red, green and blue glass. Is there a 4th one to find? If so, where is it or do I have to bump into someone and they give me the clue?

Or is the fourth one in the chest in the storage closet? How do I open this chest? It's guarded by magical forces.

Have you gotten the message: "the wheel of time is turning around & around, but you may crack the time that is running out" (or something like that)? Check your "notebook." Inventory + inventory. More hints if needed (selfishly), cuz you'll soon be where I am stuck.

Okay, I've found the yellow glass now. If I figure anything out I'll let you know.

I'm now on top of the mausoleum placing the coloured glass inside the cones. I'm assuming you have to put them in the cones in a particular order and when done place the lantern on the platform. Is this correct?

No, I haven't found the game board. Can you give me a really good hint as to where it is?

"Talk" to the chest in the storeroom. I hope you're in B.C. ((PST), I'm in US CST, 1:30am.

The correct order for the 4 globes.
Start at the front left cone and go clockwise: green, yellow, blue, red. Make also sure, that the latern is on the platform. Go inside the mausoleum and see what happend.

Sylvia

Help again please. Finally got breakfast served (learned you have to talk to granpa before you start fixing breakfast) have talked to everybody and reported to Le Croix have found crumb. Hint please.

Patricia

Hi Patricia,
read your diary, you have to find a "black brother" - that also could mean find something white and coulor it black.

Sylvia

Help Ispace & unicorn. I CANNOT figure out what to do after seeing the light image in the mausoleum. Just a hint please....

Pick up the King's Cross from inside the mausoleum (underneath altar) and take it to Salem's cabin. You can use it there.

Did anyone else use the hammer on the picture over Salem's bed?

Yes. And axe the picture in the pink bedroom.

What do I need to carry graveyard soil in? and, do I actually have to put the snake into the large vase? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="confused.gif" />

Judy, use a bucket found on the Major Lawn for soil. Don't worry about putting the snake into the bottle. That will happen on its own later.
