Bell Hallway
|
One of the rooms of the Manor of Sleep in Fatal Frame III.
Background Info
The Bell Hallway and Round Window Foyer served as the entrance hall of the Kuze Shrine before the Unleashing.[1] It connects to many of the more public, non-ceremonial areas of the Manor, such as the Hall with Tatami, Projection Room and Closet Hallway. In order to make Sacrificial Pillars to contain the Rift, several Shrine Carpenters were killed here by Tengai Narumi.
Underneath the wooden floor of the Foyer is one of the hidden passages used by the Handmaidens to access the Doll Altars. The floor has collapsed, rendering that part of the passage inaccessible.
Second Floor
The area above the Foyer is accessible via the Kimono Room, and it is possible to walk across the rafters to access the room above the Wooden Figure Room. There is a palanquin stored in the rafters, in which the Tattooed Priestess travelled to the Kuze Shrine.[2]
