"HINTS FOR HUGO'S HOUSE OF HORRORS" - getting started (Unregistered version) Guide sent in by Alex McEwan First off, I want to make it clear that you should save the game before you enter each room/screen and then save it after you are out of that room/screen. Make sure you have all the items you need from that room/screen first. Otherwise your save is just a waste of time. PLEASE remember this. It is very important!!!! Pick up the pumpkin and then type "DROP PUMPKIN". Pick up the key. Unlock and open the door. Now that you are in the house you see the professor walking upstairs. Ignore him for now. Get the candle on the table. Then go to the small opening under the stairs. Don't bother trying to get in there. It won't work. Type "LOOK UNDER STAIRS". Get the two items that you see. The room immediately to the right is the dining room. The monsters are feasting but at this point if the butler comes up and recognizes you he will chop your head off. GET OUT OF THERE FAST before the butler can catch you!!!! Trying to kill him with the penknife won't work. There are two doors in here. It doesn't matter which door you go through just get out of there. You will return there later (with the proper attire) to obtain what you need from the butler .... - o -
