How to Solve the Resident Evil Village 5 Bells Puzzle

Although the Resident Evil series is well known for being a horror game, there’s so much more to it than fighting off hordes of zombies and bracing yourself for jump scares. Resident Evil games are also well known for their puzzles. While most of them won’t cause you too much trouble, solving the Resident Evil Village 5 bells puzzle can be a little more difficult than most.

This particular puzzle doesn’t require intelligence; instead, it relies on your perception, with many of the bells hidden extremely well. But fear not, here are all the Resident Evil Village bell locations.

Swingin Bell Behind the Painting

Swingin Bell Behind the Painting

For me, the first bell was very obvious; it’s a giant bell swinging back and forth right behind the painting with a clue strapped to it. It couldn’t have been any more obvious, so hopefully you managed to find this bell without any help.

The key to this one is timing. Wait for a couple of swings just to get a rough idea of how long the bell is visible, and when ready, shoot through the hole in the wall and hit the bell.

If you hit the target, you will hear the bell gong as well as the bell setting on fire; it’s time to move on to the next bell.

Bell to the Left of the Bust

Next to the painting, just below the hole in the wall, you will see a bust. Just to the left of this, there is a bell sitting on a table. This one is nice and easy, as it can be hit with your knife, saving you some bullets.

Bell On Top of the Chandelier

I have no idea how this one took me so long to find, but it did. To the left of the room, you will see a set of stairs. Go to the top of them and look at the very top of the chandelier.

Hit the bell and stay at the top of the stairs for the next bell.

Bell Outside of the Window

This might be the hardest of all the bells to find, as well as being the biggest of them all. You should already be up the stairs after hitting the chandelier. Just look past the chandelier and out the window, and you will notice there is a big bell tower outside.

You will need two shots for this: pop one at the window to smash it, then another one to hit the bell.

Bell on Top of the Bookshelf

The final bell can be hit on your way down the stairs. To the right of the giant painting on the wall, you will see a bookshelf, on top of that, there is a small bell, and you will have completed the Resident Evil Village bell puzzle.

Now you’ve hit all the bells, it’s time to move on and complete the Resident Evil Village 5 bells puzzle once and for all.

What’s Next?

Now that you have completed the puzzle, the giant painting will open, revealing itself to be a passageway to the attic. When you move on to the attic, after climbing the ladder, turn around, and you will see a statue that you can destroy.

There is also a treasure map in the attic, which is worth grabbing for later in the game. Once you’ve done the Resident Evil Village 5 bells puzzle and collected the treasure map, you can go back to the horror element of the game and enjoy some mindless carnage. Or, you could, of course, put that treasure map to good use and go on the hunt for treasure.
