How to complete The Haunting of Beast's Castle in Disney Dreamlight Valley

To complete The Haunting of Beast's Castle quest, you need to return to the Beauty and the Beast Realm and help Lumiere and Cogsworth investigate what's going on. It's a fairly complex process, so here's a full breakdown of all key quest steps to help you through it.
Return to the Beauty and the Beast Realm
Head back to the Beauty and the Beast Realm to get started. You can access this area by traveling through the door marked with a rose on the third level of the Dream Castle. You can also teleport there right away from the map to bypass the extra travel time.
Find a servant to learn what's going on
Head straight up the castle steps, make a left, proceed down the hallway overlooking the courtyard, and make a right to enter the library. Approach Lumiere near the fireplace and chat with him about what's going on.
Search the hidden passage for the Fireplace Fuel ingredients
The castle is shrouded in darkness, so Lumiere tasks you with making some Fireplace Fuel to brighten things up. From where Lumiere is standing, turn right to enter the hidden passage area. Once you're inside, look for the sparkles on the ground right by the stove to find the items you need.
Fireplace Fuel recipe

There are three items you need to make Fireplace Fuel:
- Three Castle Canola
- One Castle Paper
- One Castle Softwood
All of these items can be grabbed from inside the storage container next to the stove. Interact with the stove once you have the items you need and select the Fireplace Fuel recipe to cook it. You'll only throw in the Canola, but the other two items must be passed over to Lumiere with it to get some light. Chat with him again after giving him the Fireplace Fuel.
Catch the flying painting
There's a strange painting on the loose, so your next task is to find and catch it. The flying painting laps around the entire castle in a circle, so loop around the building to find it. This item never stops moving and is decently fast, so consider eating some food to get a healthy gliding boost. Once you'e by it, you can catch the flying painting by pressing the interact button.

Find a place to display the flying painting
It's time to put the strange painting back where it belongs. Head over to the piano right by the Realm entrance and approach the swirls and rose petals on the wall right behind it to place the flying painting.
As soon as you place this item, two items will appear on the ground nearby. Pick up the Enigmatic Box and Domestic Manual Page 1, then head back to Lumiere in the library to discuss what happened. Follow Lumiere to the garden to figure out what needs to be done next, then talk to him once you're there.
Destroy statues and other obstacles to reach the garden's center
Strange noises are coming from the middle of the garden, so you need to find a way to reach it. Equip your Royal Pickaxe and start swinging to break the statues blocking your path forward. Clear away the smaller rocks using the same tool, and remove the pesky Night Thorns you encounter using your magic.

At the center of the garden, you'll find Cogsworth, who was trapped until you saved him. Interact with him to chat about everything that's happened and how he ended up there. Follow Cogsworth back over to Lumiere and chat with the duo as they reunite. Talking to them this last time finishes this quest and starts the A Growing Mystery one. You're now one step closer to unlocking Lumiere and Cogsworth.
