Dread X Collection 2 House Progression Guide

The house acts as a central launcher for all of the games in the Collection, except it is a whole game in of itself! Solve the puzzles to earn keys and unlock more games. Each game is displayed as a VHS tape. Once you have unlocked a tape, simply approach the TV and select the game you want to play.

The first key is simply on top of the TV. Select the locked boxes to read about each game and unlock whichever you choose. After one game has been played, the door to the right of the maiden statue will open, allowing you access to much of the mansion.

Observe the painting in the room of the four limbed statue. No, not the statue of a maiden covering her face. The other statue, goofball. Looking at the painting, you will see the same statue with weapons in its hands. Simply select each hand on the statue and choose the matching weapon. Be wary of crossed arms. Once each weapon is in the proper hand, the painting will split in half and reveal a key.

A sound puzzle, with notes connected to various body parts that you can pull. A certain melody (Shave and a Haircut) has to be played which can be found on a gramophone in the attic.

A puzzle found upstairs involving busts on pedestals that face away from a central sun. Each bust will have to face the sun in order to unlock the key within.
