The Sticks and Stones trophy in Clive Barker’s Hellraiser: Revival asks for one very specific kill. You have to finish off an enemy with a thrown stone rather than a gun or a melee weapon. It sits among the rarest unlocks in the game, and the setup is easy to walk past because the stone and the enemies are in two different places. The simplest window opens during the stretch near the objective marked “FIND THE STATUE’S TONGUE,” just before you open the gate to Charlotte.

Quick answer: Pick up the Stone outside the mansion entrance, carry it to the Unworthy near Charlotte’s gate, shoot one until it turns blue, then throw the stone to kill it.


What the Sticks and Stones trophy needs

The requirement is to kill an enemy using a thrown stone. In practice, a normal zombie has too much health to die from a single rock, so the kill only registers once the enemy is already weakened into its staggered state. In Hellraiser: Revival that state is labelled on screen as “Banishing Unworthy recovers Health and Suffering,” and the enemy glows blue. A stone thrown at a blue Unworthy delivers the finishing blow and pops the trophy.

  • A thrown Stone, picked up outside the mansion entrance.
  • A firearm such as the pistol to stagger a zombie into its blue state.
  • An Unworthy enemy near the gate that opens toward Charlotte.

Hellraiser: Revival has no chapter select or post-game free roam, so keep a manual save before you attempt this in case the setup goes wrong.


Where to find the stone near the statue’s tongue

The stone you need is not sitting next to the enemies. It waits back up at the mansion entrance, so the kill requires a short round trip. Start at the pathway gate tied to the “OPEN THE GATE TO CHARLOTTE” prompt, then head back the way you came rather than opening the gate.

From the gate leading toward the “FIND THE STATUE’S TONGUE” objective, turn around and backtrack through the courtyard, past the stone structures you came in by.

Scale the lengthy exterior stairways, whose stone steps are lit, until you reach the top courtyard at the mansion entrance.

At the front of the mansion, look on the stone pavement beside a fallen enemy in black leather gear. A Stone rests on the ground there. Equip it to pick it up.

Turn an enemy blue and throw the stone

With the stone in hand, head back down to the enemies by the gate. The order matters here, since you cannot aim a firearm while holding the stone.

Carry the stone back down the stairs and along the pathways to the area where the zombies spawn near Charlotte’s gate.
Drop the stone with the Square prompt near the path entrance so you can draw a weapon. Equip your pistol and shoot one attacking zombie repeatedly until it enters the blue staggered state, signalled by the “Banishing Unworthy recovers Health and Suffering” hint.
Pick the stone back up and throw it straight at the glowing blue enemy. The thrown stone lands the killing blow and the Sticks and Stones trophy unlocks on the spot.

How to confirm the unlock

You will know it worked when the “Trophy earned!” banner for Sticks and Stones appears in the corner of the screen the moment the stone connects with the blue enemy. If the zombie dies to anything other than the thrown stone, or the stone hits it before it glows blue, the trophy will not register. Reload your manual save, stagger a fresh enemy into its blue state, and throw again. Across Hellraiser: Revival’s full list of 45 trophies, this is one of the toughest optional ones to tick off, so landing it cleanly saves you a return trip you cannot otherwise make.
