How to Find a Way through the Barricade in Hogwarts Legacy

To solve the puzzle of barricade and open the archway, you will be required to find three skeletons and place them on the archway door. You will find these skeletons in the room itself, just scattered around. To make it easier for yourself, you can even use the Revelio spell and get them faster. Here are the locations where you will find the skeletons:

  • In the room, behind the altar.
  • Near the grave in the main room.
  • On the altar, near Sebastian.

Once you find them all, use the spell Wingardium Leviosa and then move them to the door.

Place the skelotons on the archway to open the barricade

Make note that you might have to open a few doors adjacent to the bone piles to access them fully. Each of these doors are going to have a different sign, and you need to make these signs match to open them. Not all doors will have bones. Some might have adversaries that you need to kill before continuing.

Once you have done the above and stacked the bone piles in the center of the door, a clip will play where the bone piles will form an archway for you. Now, you can get past it. If this is not working for you, there is a glitch. All you need to do is pick them up again using Wingardium Leviosa and arrange it near the door again.
