There are three areas like what you described.

1.) In Skyrim world where the boat drops you off?
2.) In the cave after you enter the portcullis gate?
3.) in the Gargoyles Lair just before the 2nd large stone gargoyle giant?

In Skyrim world? In the cave? Or in the Gargoyles Lair?

In the skyrim world.

Ah because you originally posted it was in the Gargoyle Kings Lair. Which is an indoor cell.

Now we begin to narrow this down. So the boat drops you off. Then you are on the platform... where exactly did this occur in that area? Ive been there a hundred times and this is the first I've heard of this from over 75,000 subscribers on steam or on Bethesda.net mod hosting site.

If you could let me know where on the platform that would help me fix this.

Thanks for the help.

The boat never drops me off at the lair entrance. After loading i'm still at the Volkihar docks. I then swim to the entrance and jump on. that's when i get stuck.

Ah hah! Now we get to the root!

This is not a bug causing this, this is something else. Please follow the directions in the following link that explain how to uninstall and re-install this mod. Repeat the process 2 times and see if it works. If not than your save is corrupted. We'll go into that if this doesn't fix your issue. It usually does fix it.

Thanks. Reinstalling the mod a few times fixed it.

MANNEQUIN GLITCH

Mannequin bugs are not related to this mod as it does nothing to change the scripts or the objects involved with mannequins.

Most people don't have this issue with mannequins, but it does happen as Skyrim is prone to bugs that develope due to many factors, especially when you install mods make a save, then delete a mod remembered in the save. Also remember mods are mostly created by amateurs. Poorly written scripts cause conflicts, especially when original scripts or objects have been changed by a mod author. This will corrupt your save and even your game files. Also too many saves cause issues, you should have no more than 30. Sometimes corrupted files cause these issues..

Mannequins in skyrim are fickle. I do not have that issue nor do any of my testers but some people run into issues. Best thing I can recommend is put my mod last in the load list and see if that helps. Try doing some google research. At some point you may have installed a mod that did something to mannequin scripts and it corrupted your save.

If you delete a mod, it's scripts remain in the save. Which will negate moving mods to the bottom of the load list because deleted mods scripts are always last in the load!

I should clarify that I did nothing to mannequins in this mod. Sorry I can't help you but Skyrim with mod's can be very elusive when fixing issues. Try some of these basic fixes and see if it works:

I am confused, but that is nothing new. My question is, why, out of all of the mannequins in Skyrim, are the only ones effected by this glitch the ones in Castle Volkihar? The glitch I am referring to is the one where no matter how many times I equip the mannequins, if I leave and come back a few days later none of the items are being worn. It makes it really hard to enjoy the extra storage. Before I restart my game ... again ... and lose another couple of hundred hours, I would like to know if there is possibly any way to fix this or ensure that It won't just happen again. This would not be the first time I have restarted a game because of this.

Hi mengstro, the mannequin bug is local to Skyrim. There is lots of documentation about this because there are lots of things that can cause this. Why it lands in any certain place such as this mod for you I couldn't say for certain.

Usually problems in mods are caused by conflicts with other mods or you installed a mod, made a save, then deleted the mod inside your save. The save then looks for that dependency and takes a crap. I have no idea what causes mannequin glitch.

You could try changing load order. This can sometimes fix conflicts like this. I recommend you do some reading up on the subject via google. You could also try re-installing this mod as it is so large sometimes files don't install properly. This sometimes fixes issues for people.

This isn't the first time I"ve had this report, but I don't get it often. I did look into this over the last few years and never could find an issue. I put mannequins in like I am supposed to so not sure why it happens. I have also heard people having issues with the weapon racks (intermittently).

Sorry I don't have a clear fix for this. That is all I can give you other than what I have on my FAQ here: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/workshop/filedetails/discussion/129969995/846966336549220989/?ctp=7#c37470848747033640

WHY DO THE MANNEQUINS MOVE IN THE SLEEPING CHAMBER?

Inside Castle Volkihar Redux mod you'll find lots of random fan cookies that reference other vampire movies. In the case of the mannequins in the sleeping chamber it is a nod to "Interview with a vampire". With Lewie's new vampire eyes he see's statues move.

Having trouble with the "It's Good to be King" quest.
Supposedly the boat is supposed to fast travel you to Gargoyle Point. What happens is I get two loading screens, followed by spawning right back at the Volkihar Docks. I can't access Gargoyle Point since the boat is broken, and I can't fly there in Vampire Lord form (like I probably should be able to, given it's right around the corner of the island and all) without getting a message "There's nothing but wilderness out there" and getting stuck in place unable to move.
Is there a way to get to Gargoyle Point without the boat? Or in the very least can you give me the location id so I can teleport there via console if necessary?

Most location ids are in the console. However I do know few are hidden. I have the ebonvale town, (a town after helgen and right before hitting Whiterun) where I know there is a location id that is teleportable to. So the location id might be in there, however, it might not be the exact name.

Hope that helped some. I'm sure DiGiTaL will help you out further if you need it.

There is a mod conflict causing this or the mod didn't download entirely. Try re-installing. Also could be your save is corrupted. This happens when you install mods, play the game, make a save, the delete mods, play the game and make another save. Do this enough times and the left overs from deleted mods will destroy your save.

In any case you could just swim to the backside of Volkihar island where the entrance is located. It doesn't take that long. Either start from the docks or by the main entrance in the front door of the castle.

Or you could go to the balcony off the top floor of the East Tower and jump off. You can even see the gargoyle lair entrance from up there.
