In the second crossroads, before the Ossuaire, just look around for clues similar to the ones that led you through the sewer part. In general, it's a good idea to examine that whole room very carefully.

You need to distract him. If only you could fool him into going to look through that extra doorway...

The answer to this is actually a kind of a pixel hunt; I also missed it the first time. In the second intersection there are some pebbles on the ground. Once you find them, you can just throw them through the doorway and the cataflic guy will follow the sounds, but those pebbles are really, really easy to miss. I think this was probably one of the hardest parts of the game.

I just figured out the secret ending!!! You can totally ignore my previous post. I don't want to spoil it for you guys, so here are some hints:

Look really carefully at the tree in the village, the one with the carvings.

See a familiar looking dog in the upper left corner?

And #2 = SENO sure looks like catacomb directions?

So, just go to the second intersection and walk from there.

And yes, thank you Grundislav for waking up the nerd in all of us, because the real reason figured it out was:

I reloaded back to the tree to check if that mysterious phrase was Romanian for "My hovercraft is full of eels" and noticed the dog by accident. And, yes, in case if you are wondering, it really was the hovercraft phrase.

Thank you once again Grundislav for a great game and a great series!

To all you people having trouble with the secret ending: I still haven't figured it out, either, but here are some random thoughts I had on it. Some are quite far-fetched, as I'm getting pretty desperate here. At least this hopefully saves someone else the trouble of trying out these silly ideas.

So, I just finished re-playing the whole game with the commentary on, and as entertaining as it was, it really didn't offer much clues as to what the secret ending could be. One small detail that caught my the eye second time around was the AGW graffiti outside Madame Tilly's shop. The statues in the Sacre Coeur crypt were A, D and G, so I was hoping I might simply find there something with W to end the sequence with, and maybe reveal something where the dog-headed key fits, but eventually I found nothing. I also tried A, G and S (Sacre Coeur itself) for AGS, but that didn't work out either. As I said before, this is getting pretty far-fetched.

I also found it quite strange in the flash-backs that the local butcher's family can afford a fancy crypt, but I couldn't figure out anything new in Arthur & Percy's adventures. What keeps bugging me most is the underlined name Butacu in the tree that can also be found at the graveyard, but maybe it really doesn't mean anything.

I also tried figuring out the dog-pile mural, but didn't really get anywhere with that. If it's not a red herring, I guess there's something we need to find before going to Notre Dame to do anything with it.

The Hero, I'm not sure which part of the problem you were asking hints for in your earlier post, but just in case you need the latter half, here it is:

Spoiler

To get inside the old lady's house, first you need to knock on the door with the piece of wood (you don't really need the brambles yet) just like fatmike006 told in the previous post. Then, when she opens the door and won't let you in, you need to block the door with your hand so she can't get it shut.
