Wasn't sure if a beetle could appear there or not, but I might have been running too fast. Either way, I might need to test this out and see if I can get the beetles, thanks!
Over a year late to the party, but for future reference there is a beetle in the hallway before the glass staircase. You have to go all the way to the end of the hallway and then push forward (or A, can't remember which). I think this one is always in the same place.
Decided to try this again after seeing the post and managed to get all 4! I was taking notes throughout the run so I'd have a walkthrough, so that extra time idling may have been what let them spawn. As a joke, I've been thinking of speedrunning this game since there's an any% category (1 time, looks beatable) and an all beetles category (no runs). Here's the page for that:
http://www.speedrun.com/d . While trying to go fast, I can't find Chapter 3's beetle sadly. So far what I've found as spawn locations:
Chapter 1:
* Right as the game starts, turn around. Beetle is at the door (has been consistent here).
Chapter 2:
* On the busts
* On the bookshelf
* On the table with the locked drawer
Chapter 3:
* On the grating blocking the path to Chapter 2
* ?
* ?
Chapter 4:
* At the back of the hallway on the wall
There are too many brick walls to check when rotating the rooms in this chapter, gets very tedious fast. I think one of the ways might spawn a beetle though. Maybe it can spawn on the fountain or inside the observatory I never enter since I already know the puzzle solutions? Thought I'd document where I've found the beetles at least for anyone else who stumbles on this thread.
