Rebirth players will find a blue item box puzzle to solve it:

Save the game if you'd like by using the typewriter in the corner, and then exit the room (make sure you only take one weapon with some ammo with you, preferably the Beretta).

Walk up to the item box and drop off the Square Crank, Explosive Rounds (for Jill), First Aid Spray, and any other herbs you may have. Go to the other side of this room and take the Explosive Rounds (Beretta Clip for Chris players) and First Aid Spray from the bookshelf. (Director's Cut players can't do anything about the hole in front of the red doors, but we're only going there once, so it's not a major concern.) Go back to the first corridor and go through the first single door on the right. This prevents the Plant 42's (you'll find out what this thing is soon) vines from attacking you when you walk through this area. Proceed to walk to the left of the statue and push it over the small hole in the floor. Walk behind the statue and push it down the hallway until you reach the middle of intersection. Run forward and you'll be able to pick up two Blue Herbs and a single Green Herb in the corner, although it is not advised that you pick up the Blue ones. All major items will be detailed in this section, including the final key we need to unlock the rest of the doors in the Mansion. You're now in the Mansion's Guardhouse, where several mysteries lie: from gigantic sharks to mutated plants, this Guardhouse has everything you could imagine.
