Alan Wake 2 All Nursery Rhyme Doll Locations

Alan Wake 2 contains 13 Nursery Rhyme Doll Locations. All Nursery Rhyme Dolls are needed for the I’ll Find You trophy/achievement. All of them can still be found before Saga’s Point of No Return at the end of Chapter “Return 6: Scratch”. Before this point you can still backtrack and collect any Nursery Rhyme Dolls you have left.

Nursery Rhyme Dolls are small wooden characters found nearby Nursery Rhyme Puzzle locations. They are used to solve the puzzles, which in turn reward Charms. Whenever you solve a puzzle, make sure to pick the dolls back up! They are used for multiple puzzles. The spawn locations for these are not set, as they will always spawn nearby a puzzle that requires that respective doll. Therefore if you do the puzzles in a different order you may find the dolls in different locations.

This guide uses the in-game chapter names as displayed on the save game (which are different from the chapter names in trophy/achievement list). They are exclusively found in Saga’s story sections. None of them are in Alan’s story sections.

Alan Wake 2 Collectible Guide

Return 2: The Heart

Nursery Rhyme Doll 1 – Crow Doll
After the flooding has cleared from the area, go through Crow’s Foot Hills and cross the bridge to the north to find a campsite on the left. The doll sits on the left picnic table facing the lake, next to a burger on the table (camp icon on map, west of Private Cabin).

Nursery Rhyme Doll 2+3 – Hero Doll + Wolf Doll
In Witchfinder’s Station, head upstairs and to the right to find these two dolls.

Return 3: Local Girl

Nursery Rhyme Doll 4+5 – Deer Doll and Moose Doll
After your first encounter with Thrower Taken, head around the corner and onto the ridge to find these two dolls next to a puzzle.

Nursery Rhyme Doll 6+7 – Wise Elder Doll and Bear Doll
After the flooding has cleared from the area, head down to the Trailer Park. Sitting on the sink at the Fish Cleaning station to the south.

Nursery Rhyme Doll 8+9 – Mother Doll and Child Doll
On one of the benches leading to the wharf next to the Fish Cleaning Station.

Nursery Rhyme Doll 10 – Trickster Doll
Head up to the Lighthouse and this doll will be sitting outside the entrance.

Nursery Rhyme Doll 11+12 – Monster Doll and Maiden Doll
Head all the way north to the Ranger Cabin. Upstairs on the dresser in the bedroom.

Return 5: Old Gods

Nursery Rhyme Doll 13 – Father Doll
After getting the Boltcutters go back to Cauldron Lake and cut open the gate to the Rental Cabins. Solve the Nursery Rhyme Puzzle in Cabin 4, then the door opens to Cabin 5. Inside you find a briefcase containing the final doll. This crate will only appear after completing all 16 Nursery Rhyme Puzzles up until this point (if you missed one you must do it first and return afterward). When opening the case, you might not be able to pick up the doll right away (the / prompt won’t work). You must close the briefcase to get a clue, go to Mind Place, interact with Case Board, select “Nursery Rhymes” Case (press / to switch Case Files), put up the new clue called “Witchfinder’s Station”. Then try to pick up the doll. If it still doesn’t work, be sure to put up more clues on the clue board (especially the Nursery Rhymes board), quit out after putting up a few clues and try interacting with the doll again, rinse and repeat until it lets you pick it up (the interaction prompt appears to be somewhat buggy here). This doll is needed to complete the final Nursery Rhyme at Witchfinder’s Station. You will also unlock I’ll Find You for finding all Dolls if you followed the guide so far (if not, check your inventory which doll you are missing).
