Game Summary:
Many years ago in the small town of Spirit Bay, there lived a mean old man inside a mansion named Zachary Graves. Old man Graves was not a very well liked person. He rarely left the old mansion and spent most of his life brooding about the decaying, four story house. When he died, the house was condemned and locked up. The townspeople claim that old man Graves knew the whereabouts of a magic urn that was a family heirloom of the first family of Spirit Bay. It seems that the mansion was the family’s first home and that the magic urn, which broke into several pieces during the earthquake of 1890, is still in the old house.
To this day, no one has had the courage to go into the derelict mansion to search for the pieces of the urn. It is common knowledge that the ghost of old man Graves still haunts the mansion. Some of the neighbors claim to have seen lights flickering in the windows. Some say that they have heard eerie sounds, doors slamming, and heavy footsteps. Some even claim to have seen shadows running through the mansion. The mysterious mansion has 24 rooms connected by long corridors and staircases. Some of the rooms have been locked up for over 50 years. There is supposed to be a master key hidden somewhere in the mansion. Without the key, it might be impossible to travel from room to room. There is also an ancient scepter hidden in the mansion. Old man Graves always carried this scepter. He believed it scared off evil spirits.
Now that you know the story, Atari is unlocking the entrance to the Haunted House and letting you test your bravery. Do you dare enter the frightening old mansion? If you do, remember to carry matches; the Haunted House is very dark. When you are ready to challenge your courage, insert this Game Program cartridge and turn on your Atari Video Computer System game to enter the main room on the first floor of the Haunted House.
