Haunted Mansion Cellar

[rogue5108]

How do I get in? I saw a guide with a couple of things to interact with but none seem to work.
Cheers in advance for any help!

I think just interacting with the marked hippo statue will unlock the door. I don't know if there any other prerequisites other than having that side quest available. Make sure to press ALT to highlight interactable objects.

IIRC you need to succeed on a Wis or Mec Check at the Hippo-Statue to find the switch.

One of the wrecked trucks is a quest object (green outline), you may need to interact with that to 'unlock' the hippo. Thats what I did at least.

I can't find any way to interact with the hippos (I have a 95 Wisdom, and 89 Mec). There is a burnt out van in the corner of the compound but can't interact with it either. I tried explosives on the door but it didn't do anything.

I just did it. 2 clues and mech check on the door to make hippo switch available.

3rd clue is in the cellar and triggers the "night" note, which enable the interaction with the "ghost" and subsequent engagement.

I think you have to interact with clues to make the door interactable, then interact with the door and pass a check to make the hippo interactable, then interact with the hippo and pass a check to open the door, in that order.

I may have blown it. I got there at night and there was a "Ghost" walking around and I killed him (just a lil bit....). I may have wrecked the quest.

Also good ending. Ghost leads to one of four evidence pieces to convict Corazon.
