You need to rescue Ashley from the church before you can get this doll, as she needs to bring a ladder down in the top room of the Village Chief's manor. To reveal this ladder, press the switch to the right of the desk, then boost Ashley up.

You can find the eighth Clockwork Castellan location in Resident Evil 4 atop the western Castle Battlements tower, on some sand bags, down from where the treasure chest is located.

Our Resident Evil 4 walkthrough can help you through the village with guides on the Large and Small Cave Shrine puzzle solutions, the Church dial puzzle, and Del Lago, El Gigante, and Méndez bosses. When you reach the castle, you have to tackle the Treasury sword, Wall With Four Slots, Dining Hall bell, and Grandfather Clock correct time puzzles, along with the Dungeon Garrador, two giants, and Ramón Salazar bosses. The island is up next, and there's still brain teasers with callibration puzzles, keycard locations, and a hidden wrench, along with final bosses Krauser and Sadler.
