While you can simply open the door leading into Moreau’s house, we actually recommend sneaking around the back. There will be a small gap you can crouch under, which will enable you to sneak up on the Lycan inside. 

Simply dispatch it with a well-aimed shotgun blast to the head and proceed over to the table. There you’ll find the small chest with the Wolfsbane revolver carefully tucked inside. Simply hit the command button to add this beastly revolver to your collection.
