Tavern II | Transylvania Dracula: Origin Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
Choose the sticky key from your inventory and click on the original to make the exchange (screen). You'll end up having a Stable key in your possession. Go back to Abraham and talk to him. Van Helsing will persuade the owner of the tavern to leave for a few seconds. Use the key to gain access to the stables area and go there right away.
Start off by taking closer look at the chunks of meat. Examine Count Dracula's horses if you want to and notice their red eyes. Listen to what Van Helsing has to say about the stage-coach. Click on the coach and wait for the camera to change its position. Examine the coach more closely, as well as the barrel on top of it (screen). Van Helsing will say that he could fit inside, however he would have to get rid of the substance from the barrel in the first place. Notice a drain in the lower left corner of the screen.
Go back to the main view of the stables area and proceed towards the left table. Pick up an Empty bucket and use this object on a bucket filled with oat. That's not all. Use the bucket with oat on the blood dripping from the meat (screen). Once you've gained possession of this new mixture, use the bucket on the horses by clicking on the left horse (screen). You'll be allowed to calm the animals down.
Click on a passageway located near the horses. You weren't able to get here before, but since the horses have calmed down, now's your chance. There are a lot of important items here (screen) and you must start picking them up. Take a Beaver carcass, a Chest, a Funnel, a Trough and a Tube. You can also inspect the main gate. Once this is all done, go back to the stage-coach.
Get closer to the stage-coach. You will have to construct a drain for the substance from the barrel. Remember that you can't spill it on the ground, because the coachman would have noticed that. Choose the crate from your inventory and use it near one of the wheels (screen). Now you'll have to start using other items. The correct order is (from the bottom): tube, chest, trough, beaver carcass and funnel. Look at my screen for confirmation.
There's only one more thing for you to do here. Click on the valve (screen) and wait for the substance to pour itself down the drain. Van Helsing will make a short statement. Click on one of the objects and he'll automatically disassemble the whole structure. Thankfully, our main hero will hide inside the barrel without your help. It's time to visit Count Dracula's castle.
