1.yep
2.yep
3.yep(though It must be done a specific way or he will escape)
4. ahh the book yes, there are 2 steps there
4a. is a riddle, the "ask alice when she's ten feet tall" was the main hint
I believe I was the first to work it out.. this part anyway.
what did alice do..to get big? and how did she fix that? etc
4b. once you enter the words in to the book, a SERIOUS riddle will popup
like old school style
you get a few symbols to pick and 3 words at random which tells you which symbols you need to select
only thing is there is no where in the game that im aware of that tells you these things, nor in the manual online
its here..on the forums
once you entered the phrase, and the cool symbol code
then you go to step 5 or 6 technically
5. yep the rug in the cemetery has something to do with it (thats the end)
the 5th start is hinted at the FIRST PHRASE you enter into the book
once you figure that out, do it, go to that place with the rug
and XX
the hint was.. "wait"
then it was "wait XX then let go, ahh release"
truly a fun hunt
