How To Play — Guide

Welcome to Horrors At The Mansion! A house that is alive, aware, and always watching. You will step into the shoes of three brave teen friends: Josh, Ray, and Mark, exploring the dark corridors of a haunted mansion filled with secrets, horrors, and mysteries beyond imagination.

Before you begin, here’s what you need to know to survive—or at least try to:

1. Your choices matter

This story is not linear. Every decision you make affects the path the characters take and can lead to drastically different outcomes. Some choices lead to safety, some to peril, and some may even trap you forever.

Pay attention to every word, clue, and description — the mansion will test your attention to detail.

2. How to make a choice

At the end of most chapters, you will be given two or three options. Each choice will direct you to a specific chapter:

Example:

• If you open the ancient book, turn to chapter 21

• If you ignore it and leave the room, turn to chapter 13

Important: Always turn to the chapter listed for your choice. Do not skip chapters. Some decisions may loop you back or forward unpredictably.

3. Multiple Endings

Horrors At The Mansion has over 10 possible endings:

Bad Endings – Sometimes the mansion wins. You may be trapped, absorbed, or lost forever.

Good Endings – You can escape if you outsmart the mansion or break its patterns.

Bittersweet Endings– Survival comes with a cost; someone may remain behind.

A Loop Ending – Some choices can loop you back to earlier chapters, giving you another chance… or another trap.

Your goal is to explore carefully, pay attention to hints, and make choices wisely to reach the ending you want.

4. Hints and Clues

The mansion talks—but not out loud. Watch for:

•Symbols, words, and strange markings

•Environmental changes (shadows, sounds, temperature)

•Subtle descriptions of objects or rooms

They are rarely obvious.

5. Rules of Survival

Do not rush. Take your time reading every chapter.

Keep track of the chapters you visit; the mansion has memory.

Choices are permanent. Once you turn to a chapter, you cannot undo it.

Some doors may only open once. Some paths may never return.

6. Tips for first Playthrough

Explore Thoroughly: Hidden paths can lead to good endings.

Take Notes: Remember where key objects, books, or corridors appear.

Experiment: Some paths loop back, giving multiple chances to explore different endings.

Are you ready to enter Blackwood Creek Mansion?!

Turn the doorknob. Step inside.

And remember: the house is always watching...

Now, go on to Chapter 1 to start.

Good luck!
