Place the books in order

After finding yourself in a serial killers cabin your group must figure out the first puzzle based on objects in the room starting with a book set against a mirror.

Steps:

  • Look at the book in the mirror to reveal a message that says to line up the killer’s special books as well as a code word: SEVER

  • Find the books that all look similar and put them in order to form the word SEVER using the first letter of each title.

  • Once correct a drawer will pop open with the next clue which is a pair of severed hands with different colored fingernails.
