Moose Heads Easter Egg
The Moose Head Easter Egg is a secret reward for patting all the mounted and stuffed Moose Heads in and around Bright Falls. If you find them all, a special event will occur in the Elderwood Lodge.
- How To Complete The Easter Egg: After finding and patting all Moose Heads, go to the Mind Place and check the moose head. It will give you a cryptic clue.
- After getting the clue, return to the Elderwood Palace Lodge in Bright Falls and enter the investigation room behind the restaurant. You’ll hear an animal noise.
- Go out to the west hallway where the hotel rooms are located. A deer will appear at the end of the hall. Follow the deer to enter a room that’s packed with items.
