Walkthrough for
           Blair Witch Volume II: The Coffin Rock

General note: save your game often. Save it at least after each
cinematic.  It is easy to die in Blair Witch woods...

A little girl wakes you up and wants to take you to her
grandmother.  Grab the saber stuck in the ground near you, and
follow her.  Go around the barn and meet Grandma.

After a sequence of cinematic, you wake up with your soul departed
from your body.  Some ghosts of children encourage you to join
their play. Follow them to the dining room, where Robin lies down
next to the fireplace. After you move around a bit and kill all
ghosts, Find the cross on the table and use it to fend off
children's ghosts.  The fire ignites and another cinematic shows
Robin saying goodbye.  You wake up with amnesia and grandma names
you Lazarus.  She tells you to take it easy and - consequently -
asks you to find missing Robin. You are told to get her son's gun
and go practice behind the barn.

Grab the gun and some ammo from the dresser and look around the
property.  You will find some bullets (they always appear
surrounded by white sparks) in the barn (nearby the big closed
door, and on the wagon next to the main door) and some more around
the big stone pillar behind the barn.

When you are next to the stone pillar draw your gun and practice
shooting on the cans posted on the fence.  When you shoot all
cans, you will enter for the first time your alternate reality as
a soldier.

Enter the farmstead and shoot all soldiers you find.  You will
encounter the first one when you enter the barn, and the next when
you try to exit through the side door. Search the bodies - you
will find some bullets and a picture (I could not find any use for
it). Retrace your steps to the place you began this sequence and
kill the last soldier.


ENTER LAZARUS REALITY. After grandma has her speech, follow her
and go past the house to town.  Draw your gun as soon as you can.
You will encounter a hellhound - kill it and grab the twana stick
(they always appear surrounded with red sparks). You will need
these sticks to recover health.  Continue to town, but watch out
for two other hellhounds.  You will meet a search party - a bunch
of hostile folks - and will enter SOLDIER reality.  You are called
to report to the boss. Talk to him and, when dismissed, grab the
bullets on the bench. Go meet your troops.

ENTER LAZARUS REALITY. Talk with Durant. He encourages you to read
the books - you can try, but they are a bit hard to decipher.
After you exhaust the conversation topics, head for the woods.
Lucky for you, Lazarus will refuse to follow the wrong trail.  You
will enter the ruins of the railroad station. Pick up the broken
lantern from the outhouse. Leave the outhouse and enter SOLDIER
reality.

Find some bullets (in the corner of the fence, next to the wagon,
and some twana sticks (boulder behind the outhouse, inside the
house).  When you kill 3 soldiers, the SOLDIER reality will come
to end and you will meet a burly blind guy named Steuben. After
you talk to him, you will hear Robin.  Draw your gun and follow
her. Kill the ghosts which will attack you.  On your way to the
woods, you can pick up another twana stick.

From now on, the game will not let you rest a lot!

ENTER SOLDIER REALITY. Kill the 3 soldiers and search their bodies
for some ammo and twana sticks. Return to your troops and continue
until you cross the stream.

ENTER LAZARUS REALITY. Cross the stream (again) and bear right.
Draw your weapon of choice.  Kill all the ghosts (kiddies ghosts
are evasive and hard to kill) and find two twana stick.  If you
move around, you will find a witch - approach her and

ENTER SOLDIER REALITY.  Move around and kill all soldiers and
hellhounds (9 and 6 respectively, I think).  Search the bodies for
twana sticks and ammo.  When you can, leave through the path north
of the group of killed dogs.  Witness the scene with possessed
soldier and

ENTER LAZARUS REALITY. The witch is attacking you. Act quickly!
Go for the necklace on the ground, which will charge your cross.
Use the cross several times on the witch to immobilize her, and
finish the job with your sword.  Go south-west from fallen witch,
following each right hand turn, and Robin will appear to you.
Follow her to wooden bridge and

ENTER SOLDIER REALITY.  After Newhouse is gone, pick up ammo from
the foot of the bridge.  Enter the bridge, but do not go too far.
Shoot at the demon's hands until your soldiers decide to go on.

ENTER LAZARUS REALITY.  Cross the stream and meet the search
party.  Suffer the insults and pick up the offered bundle of
herbs.  During the cinematic, notice a twana across the stream.
You can cross the stream to get it.  Continue north.  At first
intersection, take the right fork.  You will encounter some stick
monsters. You can kill the small ones, but the large will
resurrect. The first time it will take a while, but after
subsequent kills they will resurrect right away. Better run from
them.  You can try to collect the twana and bullets guarded by
monsters, but you will have to be pretty nimble. Go on, avoiding
the stone copses (they can kill you). Keep going, taking right
turn at each crossing.

After game reloads, collect the ammo from the ground and continue
east. Kill the two attaching ghosts an go one. You will see
another ghost, which does not attack you but hovers over one spot.
Leave it alone for now.  Move around the area and kill the last
ghost. Approach the hovering ghost and

ENTER SOLDIER REALITY.  After the scene at the campground, kill
the ghost attacking your man.

ENTER LAZARUS REALITY.  Pick up the bugle from the ground and run
from the stick monster.  Follow right turns, killing small
monsters and running from large ones, until cut-scene showing some
dead men rising and thorn barrier forming.  Go straight up. Kill
the ghost blocking your way and press on to the big tree.  Do not
try to fight the ghosts - they will resurrect right away. Go for
the sacks hanging from the tree. Use your saber to cut all four of
them open.  This will stop the resurrections and open the thorn
barrier. After the cut-scene, move to the right Keep going,
collecting twana on the way. When you approach the water, you will
see another cut scene. Keep your wits about - you will be attacked
as soon as it ends. Kill the ghost and go back to encounter and
kill another one.  Go fast across the bridge. Kill the ghost which
will approach you. You will see twana sparks ahead. Go for it -
but do not pick it up yet. Kill another ghost and two stick
monsters when you approach the rock with twana.  Pick up the twana
and go for the axe further down on the ground. When you approach
it, another stick monster will drop from the tree above - and this
is immortal.  Run from it to the other end of the path.  When it
follows you, kill it and run like hell back to the place where you
found the axe.  Locate the tree with axe-marks next to the stream
and use your axe on it.  Fell it and cross the stream.


Keep going and you will come across the graveyard. Well, well -
there is our friend Steuben! Talk to him and

ENTER SOLDIER REALITY.  Kill all ghosts and go to the opposite
gate. Proceed to the shed and collect the ammo and the twana
stick. Then go back to the grave where you have met Steuben and
"act" on the tombstone.

ENTER LAZARUS REALITY.  Kill the hellhounds attacking you and go
again to the shed for the ammo and twana sticks.  Go back to the
grave and collect the doll. Pick up the shovel ad dig up a
skeleton arm.  Leave the cemetery through the main gate and
proceed to your right.  Collect the ammo and twana sticks from the
ground on your way, and stay clear of the stone copses.  Kill the
small stick monsters and hellhounds on your way; run from immortal
stick monsters.  Keep turning right at each intersection and
eventually you the game will reload.  Collect the ammo next to the
tree stump and go on. Kill the ghosts on your way.  At the
intersection, turn right.  Go to the end of the path and find a
twana stick in the cave behind the tree stump.  Use your axe on
the tree with the axe marks and cross the stream.  Go to the end
of the path and collect the twana.  Go back all the way to the
fork and now turn left.  Witness the scene where the secret life
of Steuben is revealed.  Approach Robin and she will send you to
SOLDIER REALITY.

Collect the goodies and kill all the ghosts. Keep going and again
turn right at the fork.  Kill the hellhound and collect the twana.
Go back and kill two more hellhounds. Take the left fork.  Collect
the twana from Coffin Rock and keep going left (close to the
stream).  Kill another hellhound and three stick monsters and
collect the twana. Now go back to the coffin rock and cross the
stream right below the waterfall.  Drop you weapon, enter the cave
on the other side and discover how you got your injury.

ENTER LAZARUS REALITY.  You will witness Robin doing nasty things
to the corpses of search party. Do not try to argue with her.
Locate the 4 copses which are now possessed: one to the left of
the Coffin Rock (where you fought stick monsters), one right after
the turn into right fork, and two on the other side of the stream.

Head to the on to the left of Coffin Rock.  The child-ghost will
attack you. Drop a skeleton arm next to the corpse (if you wait a
bit, a kid will complain about tickling - this is your hint).
Now, head across the stream and deposit the broken lantern at the
first corpse (the kid does not want to be looked at) and the bugle
at the second one (the kid is making hushed-up noises).  You will
have to kill a couple of ghosts on your way. Finally, go to the
last corpse (the one closest to the Rock), SAVE YOUR GAME and
deposit a bundle of herbs ("the old man does not like smelly
things").  You have to reach Robin before the countdown is up! Act
a doll on her and, drink up the essence of the demon. You will
learn your identity. After Robin runs away, enter the cave across
the stream. Kill the ghost, collect some twanas in the caves, and
go on through sparkling curtain.  Keep pressing onward and at the
fork go for the right cave.  Collect the twana, go back and kill
all ghosts and hellhounds. Go through the second sparkling
curtain.  Keep going through a series of doorways and killing the
hellhounds until you reach the house. Wander around until Steuben
attacks you in his new form.  He hangs out around the room with
the fireplace - just behind the doorway to the next room.  Kill
him and enjoy your victory!
