How to unlock the Ghosts from the past achievement in Doctor Who: The Edge of Reality - Definitive Guide
After reaching the upstairs room at Manfred Gayles House and interacting with the phonograph. You'll be tasked with burning some books in the fireplace. There are 4 books in total.
On the shelf to the left of the fireplace under a skull.
One of a unit to the immediate right.
One of a unit behind and to the left corner near a deer skull.
One on the large shelf to the right thats taking up an entire wall.
You'll know which books, as they're the only ones you can interact with and they cannot be dropped. Once collected, press to place them in the fireplace one by one. The correct order is chosen for you.
Once you're done, a voice from the painting will speak. Now you need to find the candle and place in on the candle holder, and do this 3 times. The candles are easy to find and spawn one at a time. Once you've done this, your achievement will unlock and you'll get the key.

Story-related and cannot be missed.
In the "before" part of Manfred Gayle's house, you will need to burn four books. Doing so will draw your attention to a painting. You need to put three candles in front of it. From my walkthrough:
Pick up the candle from the shelf left of the fireplace, and use it with the candle holder in front of the painting
Pick up the candle from the left of the three large shelves on the wall, and use it with the candle holder in front of the painting
Walk up to the fireplace and the painting should speak again – the door is now opened
Open the door and you'll see the final candle just to the left
Use the candle with the candle holder in front of the painting – Ghosts from the past unlocked
