    Chiller: instructions

    The night fills you with untold terror, you fear for yourself and
    for the woman you love who has been spirited away to the haunted
    mansion by the ghouls that now threaten you.  As you approach the

    herself has become possessed by evil spirits.  Panic fills your
    soul and you have to escape back from whence you came through the
    graveyard, the ghetto, the cinema and finally the forest. At each
    step aware that behind you at any moment may be...
