How to Open the Warehouse Safe in Alone in the Dark

The hardest puzzle in the game is one you can’t skip. Here’s how to open the safe in the docks of Pregzt Shipping Company in Alone in the Dark.

How to Open the Docks Safe in Alone in the Dark

Jeremy is embroiled in a dark pact, and it seems the only way to break it is to understand where he first encountered the Dark Man. To do that, we’ll need to go to Pregzt Shipping Company’s home office and find the address of the stage show where Jeremy first encountered that dark entity.

To get the address, you’ll need to fight your way through the sewers and enter the main office. And once you’re on the second floor, you’ll find yourself face-to-face with the safe. The only clue we have to open the safe is the note “All His Things”, located beneath the Tommy Gun. The clue reads:

“What is Left,

Later is Right,

And Hell is back again.”

The safe combination is the number of letters in each word.

• What = 4
• Later = 5
• Hell = 4

The safe combination for the safe in the warehouse in Alone in the Dark is 4-5-4. But to open it, you need to scroll left 4 times, scroll right to 5, then back to 4. But many people get tripped up here because of how the lock rotation. You should only move one space when you go to 5. Likewise, you should only move one space when you return to 4. If putting in the code takes you more than a few seconds, or if you find yourself scrolling past VI, you’ve done it wrong.

But that’s not the only safe you’ll need to crack. Depending on when you open this safe, you’ll either get the keys to a shrink’s room… or a lagniappe that’s very easy to miss.
