On The Country Side Of Counterfeit Island
you go to early poptropica, and go inside the gray art place. there you talk to the lady in purple and get a key. the key goes to the locked house back in counterfeit island.
Nothing. I'm not sure why they are there, but they are not from the haunted house. They are from Counterfeit Island.
The art thief is back on Counterfeit Island. As part of Counterfeit island, you don't need to do anything in Early Poptropica except get the key from the curator at the Pop Art Museum, then return to Counterfeit Island to open the Inspector's house.
Once you get the key from the curator, go back to Counterfeit island and use it at the Inspector's house.
You pull back the corner of the painting on the wall and SCREAM!
loser. YOU FAIL
