Haunted Mansion Game Instructions & FAQ!

If you want to get a jump on the Haunted Mansion game instructions, here you go:

Play Instructions

1) Players are assigned to the Purple or Green team and compete to catch as many ghosts of their own color as possible. Ghosts of your own color move away from you, while ghosts of the opposite color are drawn to you. The first team to win two game rounds is the winner. Help your team win by catching ghosts, and earn 5 credits for each ghost you capture.

2) Use the arrow keys to move in the game. Press two arrows at the same time to move your character diagonally. You can try the alternative keyboard control option by clicking the Keys button once the game has started.

3) If you want to use the mouse to move, click somewhere on the playfield to activate the mouse. Your character will walk towards the mouse pointer as you move it around the screen. Your character will stop moving when you move the pointer near your character, inside the circle that surrounds you. To use the keyboard again, just press one of the arrow keys.

4) Your character is equipped with ghost catcher, called a Vacuum. Press the CTRL or SHIFT key to activate the Vacuum and catch ghosts in front of you. Beware - you can only catch ghosts which are the same color as you. Touching a different color ghost turns you into a ghost and other players can catch you!

5) If you are caught by a ghost of the opposite color you temporarily turn into a ghost yourself. You will return to normal when the bar above you fills up completely. While you are a ghost, players on the other team can catch you for extra points.

6) Rattle the coffins to add more ghosts to the game. Stand next to the coffin and press the CTRL or SHIFT key. The ghost inside will wake up and come out. But watch out! A ghost of the opposite color can catch you!

7) At the end of each level players race to the doorway to the next level. The first team to find it starts first on the next round. If someone in your team finds the right door it changes color and you should enter that door. There's limited time to find the door so hurry up. Watch out for the blue ghosts!
