OK, why has no one made a walkthrough for this game yet? I'm in the west wing of the palace and I can't figure out what to do in the first room, the one that has the Dracula coffin in it. I've forged ahead and took out the bats, but the characters warned about not approaching the statues at the top of the screen, so I thought that I would go back to the Dracula coffin room to see what I'm supposed to do there.
Interacting with the coffin yields nothing, the guards don't give me enough time to explore anything, the crystals are noninteractive, and of the two regular coffins that I was able to approach, neither of them had a plaque to read. On top of that, every other turn is an insta-catch! I've wasted so much time banging keys to get back to the Otherworld that I'm going to break them if this matter isn't cleared up.
EDIT: Never mind. I was supposed to go through the statues anyway. The counterintuitiveness of this game struck again.
