In this room there are a lot of mannequin heads. They're harmless for the time being so save your game and proceed to the right side and enter the door.

The next are is probably the largest area we've ever seen so far. You have a choice to either go up or down. I would suggest going down and taking that path.

If you happen to ignore me then the lady in red will chase you in this area the whole time. So keep staying on the southern path to avoid that.

Head to the lower right part of the room and you'll see a series of portraits that are hanging on the wall. Examine the only different portrait. Then choose to examine his clothes. The numbers "5629" are written on it but since this is the "hanged man" portrait that means the numbers are upside down. So the numbers are really "6295."

Also don't forget to count all of the paintings of women in the room.

Now head up towards the center of the room. Examine the door on the right and it will ask you how many paintings of women are in this room. The answer is 14. The door will unlock after that.

Inside you'll see a table with a vase on top of it. This vase won't heal you but you can move it. Move the table to the right and place it on the tile that has 4 black dots. A door will unlock soon after that.

Note that if you make a mistake in this room you can just leave the room and come back inside. The table will reset to it's original location and you can try again.

After Ib confirms that there was a sound, leave the room and head for the upper right area of this place. Enter throught the only door there and there's going to be a mirror inside. Examine the mirror and a mannequin will block your way.

Leave the room and you'll notice that the lady in green is prowling around the area now and there's a key near where it is.

Lure the lady in green over to the other side of the wall and you'll be able to take the key without getting attacked. Now you can enter the door near the save point, but don't pass by the lady in red. This one will come to life as you pass in front of it and damage you.
