The Haunted House of Hideous Horror
"This is what I want," said Desther. " I want to be able to have a bath without a ghost trying to pull the plug. I want to be able to eat my breakfast without a dead body floating around my head. Such things are so distracting. I want my house back. I want the horrors that have manis- manfes- moved in booted out. Do you understand?"
You listen to this in bemusement then reply, "dunno, mate. I'm only the pizzy delivery boy."
Desther nods. "Yes, yes, I'm aware of that but if you want that tip you're going to have to rid my house of the ghost. Understand?"
You consider the possibilities. "What kind of tip are we talking about here? I mean, you're expecting me to risk my life and I'm not doing that for small change."
"As much money than you earn in a year."
£15? "You got yourself a deal," you say.
"Good," says Desther. He leads you into his house. "Now, best of luck. And if you die, I get the pizze free of charge, okay?"
"I don't remember agreeing-" you start to say but Desther has scurried outside. The swine!
Well, you agreed to clear the house of ghosts. Better get a move on...
Entrance
You're in the entrance of Desther's house, a large open area with a statue of the owner in one corner and a series of doors leading off to the rest of the house. Exits are south, up and southwest.
