Dead Island 2 The Death Of The Party is the first side quest youβll receive in the Bel-Air District, in which youβll help one of Emmaβs neighbors, Curtis Sinclair, clear his residence of zombies. If you decide to help Curtisβ, youβll find a few treasures inside his residence, which will help you fight against the horde of zombies.
After you leave Emmaβs residence during the Call The Cavalry main quest to tell the authorities youβre immune, youβll hear a cry for help from an intercom near a house entrance on Alpine Drive. Shortly after, a prompt message will appear on the screen, letting you know you can start The Death Of The Party side quest.
To begin The Death Of The Party quest in Dead Island 2, approach the nearby intercom and talk to Curtis, who will let you inside the residence.

After finishing speaking with Curtis, he will open the gate for you. Follow the path up to reach the garage with a lot of zombies around, which youβll have to deal with. As you try to open the metal door of his garage, youβll notice that youβre missing Curtisβ Garage Key. Check our guide to learn where to find Curtisβ Garage Key and grab all the good stuff inside.
Then, follow the quest marker to Curtisβ front door with zombies around and kill all of them. Once youβre done, speak with him, who is on the mansionβs balcony.
How To Restore Power to Curtis Residence
After talking to Curtis, turn to your left, proceed to the rear left corner of the gardens, and go down the stairs to reach a small technical room where you must restore the power. As soon as you open the door, youβll be ambushed by a zombie, so be prepared.
After killing it, enter the room, aim at the blue pipe near the cut electric cable by pressing

Alternatively, you can grab the Water Jerrycan outside the technical room and pour water between the two electric cables to restore the power. Return to Curtis, whoβs on the balcony, and report your success.
After speaking with Curtis, proceed to the left, leading to the residenceβs rear, and enter through the back door while killing any zombies you see. Once youβre inside, Curtis will tell you from the top of a broken staircase how he plans to use his stairlift to go downstairs. Then, press the nearby switch to power up the stairlift.

While waiting for Curtis to reach downstairs, defeat all coming waves of zombies. Once he finishes the ride with the stairlift and reaches downstairs, Curtis will lead you into the living room.

After he sits down on the chair, speak with him to finish The Death Of The Party side quest in Dead Island 2 and to receive Curtisβs House Keys and Lightweight Golf Club as a reward for your help.
