Beast of Burden Lagniappe Set - Alone in the Dark

This guide will help you complete the Beast of Burden Lagniappe set in Alone in the Dark. After you perform all the tasks needed to put it together, you’ll unlock a bit of Forbidden Knowledge that, to our great surprise, has nothing to do with The Rolling Stones track by the same name. Go figure.

Beast of Burden Lagniappes

You’ll need to collect these Lagniappes to complete the Beast of Burden set:

Check out the individual Lagniappe guides for the precise locations, while below you’ll find some general directions to these three Lagniappes.

Mummified Cat Location

Playing as Emily, you’ll find it after a cutscene with the caretaker in the garden in Chapter 2. Playing as Edward, you won’t get the cutscene and will just be able to pick it up while exploring the garden around the same time in the story.

Gazing Statuette Location

Playing as both Emily and Edward, you’ll find it while exploring the Hateful Mound in Chapter 2. It’s inside the house that’s blasting loud music.
