Nancy Drew: Message in a Haunted Mansion: Deaths, Easter Eggs, Seance

A video of me showing all the death scenes in Nancy Drew: Message in a Haunted Mansion. After that, I show both the easter eggs. Then I show the seance, a guide to the symbol puzzle in the game, and the mysterious storybook.
Oh, and according to my notes, the easter egg was first requested by Baby324567.
This video contains footage from the Nancy Drew series, made by Her Interactive (www.herinteractive.com). All rights are owned by Her Interactive.

Louis: Rose, you will not believe what Nancy said to me! Rose: What? Louis: She said that she came across Gum Bo Fu in a book! Rose:... Louis:... Rose: And? Louis: That must mean she went through my briefcase! Rose:... I'm sorry Louis, but no, it doesn't. Louis: But there's no possible way she could have read another copy of the book! Rose: Louis, why are you still here? Louis: I need a mommy.

Did it ever occur to Rose that Abby might be behind the accidents? Or at least the hauntings? Giving Abby the benefit of the doubt all the time is why the hauntings kept continuing. Nancy was trying to prove that and rose fired her for it.

[@Isaacfess]

My God you're right.

[@kelliecamdotcom]

Thanks for the video. At the end when nancy reads the poem and you showed all the symbols was cool. That voice on the phone that says, "I've fallen and I can't get up" is soo creepy.

[@alyssaj.2659]

I know your comment is over 14 years old but I’ll reply. How can you even make out what is being said on the phone? The syllables match up with that phrase but otherwise I wouldn’t be able to figure it out at all.

[@avalasialove]

Why does Louis just assume you went through his stuff when you tell him you came across gum bo fu in a book? Did it not come to his mind that Nancy could have the same book?

[@thefairybug40]

Or even just seen it before he hid it? That always confused me, too.

I didn't think of that plus they had a big study full of books could of find another copy

[@kelly_seastar]

Why does Louis automatically knew you were snooping in his brief case if you tell him you learned about gum bo fu in a book? It can't be the only book in the world that contains that phrase.

Unhooking the Chandelier Bad News: You destroyed the chandelier. Good News: It was so old anyway; over a hundred years old. Ok, you destroyed a priceless antique; that should probably be bad news too. Good News: You didn’t do any damage to the floor. Bad News: The floor did a lot of damage to the chandelier. Good News: You offered to work with Rose to pay her back for the chandelier. Bad News: You’ll probably have her paid back by the time you’re ninety. Explore The Tunnel Without A Lamp Fun Fact: The dark makes it very difficult to see while walking through an old passage way. Good News: You only fell in the well. Bad News: It was a pretty deep well. Good News: You only suffered mild head injury. Bad News: You suffered severe injuries pretty much everywhere else. Get Caught in Abby’s Room Good News: Abby wasn’t angry with you. Bad News: She was VERY angry with you. Bad News: Abby told on you and you got sent home by Rose. Good News: The ghosts are probably mad at her now. Bad News: You were sent home. Good News: Your home is not haunted. Good News: After you apologized to Rose she forgave you and let you stay. Bad News: April Fools! Get Caught Snooping Through Louis’s Brief Case Good News: Louis didn’t press charges. Bad News: He did tell Rose and she asked you to leave. Good News: You found this interesting magazine article in Louis’s brief case. Bad News: You’ve read it before. Bad News: Word got out about you looking through the brief case now no one will hire you to solve a mystery. Good News: Maybe now you can go from a detective to master thief! Bad News: You were sent home by Rose. Good News: Since this a game you have a second chance option. Louis Finds Out He Went Through His Brief Case Good News: Now you know what “gumbo fo” means.

The phone call Easter Egg can actually be accessed any time in the game, you just have to set the alarm for 3pm and go into the parlor

[@cateye008]

I got the phone call at 7:28 completely randomly. I didn't even know the timeset thing. I was wandering around and found that. The noise made me laugh so hard. XD

[@thespiderofhonor3732]

It sounds like the creepy phone call says "I can't go on " and also sounds like it's vioced by the same guy who originally voiced prudence ruthaford

[@Hippodameia]

The story kind of mirrors what happens in the game. Carolyn, the main character in the story, could also be an allusion to Carolyn Keene, the pseudonym of the numerous authors of the Nancy Drew series.

[@Sarahkei12]

The phone call at 7:26 is an Easter egg? I always thought it was part of the game! I get that call every time I play. Just thought it was another one of Abby's tricks to further convince Nancy ghosts are real.

[@roadkill55446]

this game scared the shit out of me when i was a kid lol

[@ghosttrees5362]

There's actually another "end of game" scenario that I found. If it's very late like around midnight and you go to Abby's room and continually knock on it , Nancy will ask if she's there and which will result in Abby screaming. Supposedly knocking on her door in the dead of night will freak her out and which will cause Rose to fire you for harassment. Weird but funny scenario xD

[@carnavalentertainment1650]

Really? I knew you could do that in Blackmoor Manor with Ms. Drake...

[@ghosttrees5362]

Actually, I got mixed up. You're right-It only happens in the Curse of Blackmoor manor, not over here. I don't know how I got it mixed up xD lol

[@AGJ117]

Not so funny when SHE'S the one getting scared, is it?

[@alyssaj.2659]

Yeah, in this game Nancy will just say “I don’t wanna disturb her” while Abby is sleeping.

[@Hildaglitz]

The mysterious story book actually kinda gives away the end of the game, if you read it carefully - the character of Carolyn is Nancy! XD

[@MewLime]

Ah, I remember playing this game! I got stuck on it and never got around to beating it, but I still thought it was awesome. I've played some of the other Nancy Drew games too; so nostalgic.

LOL THE PHONE CALL "I've fallen and I can't get up!"

[@coraldoug]

The phone message was the bomb message in Rick Arlen's dressing roon from Stay Tuned for Danger.

[@xoxolyss24xoxo]

When I was younger I could never figure out how to finish this game. It didn't help that it always froze at the most random times. Haha I remember when the seance scene scared me so badly that I couldn't sleep for weeks.

[@invadercorren]

Actually, I got that phone call just randomly, not after I set my alarm. I didn't think anything of it, since it fit into all the other chilling random events in the game. Maybe it just happens after 3 p.m. and if you miss it the first time, it just keeps happening til you pick up the phone. Just a thought.

[@deetafeeta]

I like the deaths better when they are like this and not the deaths where there is a good news and bad news sequence

I messaged him about it (that never happened to when I played the game) and he woke up @ 4am and opened the door to Abby's room and the screaming started. He found out that it was an easter egg. Does arglefumph know anything about that?
