If the jumping / moving in the general direction / etc. doesn't work: summoning something into the "wall" blocking the way did the trick for me

People have said it before....just jump into the darkness of the fireplace and you'll land on the stairs and you're in!!

If people have said it before why did you repeat it?

I had to use misty step to get through it. Only one character needed to though

Douse the flame then reach for the hidden fireplace wall - you're not a fireing or a fire walker, bruh.

My biggest issue in this game is the camera. Why nobody complaining how janky the camera can be in tight places. Ethel have bug that I know of is if you kill her before she run away. To enter her lair you need that perception check and sometime it still bug out. You need to use jump to enter the small area behind the fireplace.

Because this post is not about the camera. If you having serious difficulty to play because camera angles - stop playing and write a feedback request to Larian. Typing it here does not help.

I just tried to click and hold into the area, it didn't work and it's still blacked out. If there's supposed to be a skill check it also didn't trigger.

Edit:
Ok, I had to use the turn based mode to be able to walk through.

Thanks por the turn based tip, this is exactly what was happening to me!
