Oh dear, something has gone wrong! Pierke's old storybook is covered in chocolate milk. Someone in the family did it, but no one wants to admit it. Pick up your search form at the Tourist Information Point (Hoogstraat 2). Pierke's family photo is on the back of the form. Use the map to find keyholes. Go on a search and peek through the keyholes. Do you see a character? Then cross him or her off the photo, because the real culprit didn't dare show themselves anymore.
