The party have already intimidated a goblin and tied them up. Why not ask what he knows about what's ahead?
In fact, the party could ask a lot more questions from NPCs.

Post #DnD Session Analysis:
1. Don't split the party.
2. If you know skeletons might come out of the five coffins, why don't you secure four of them first?
3. Get ready to hit something if it comes out.

For those of us that have the physical #rulebooks, but find #DnDBeyond incredibly useful for our #School #Clubs, I now can't buy #Volos, but I can buy an updated version of #Tashas.

If I already have Tasha's, update should be free.
