Not until now, not until the Main doors of the Castle closed and locked themselves behind me ...

There's no key here!!! I'm trapped!!!

HELP!!! ... HEELLLPPPP!!! ...

No-one can hear me ... I'm alone ... Why do the doors open and slam shut??!! ... Is anybody there?? ... HHEELLLLPPPP!!! ...

I can see strange shapes materialising on the other side of the room ... Evil eyes glaring at me ... Footsteps ... Something's' coming down the corridor ... Something large ... Something cold ... I must run quickly ...

QUICKLY ... HHEELLLLPPPP!!!! ...

I must escape before it's too late

Now that you have been trapped in the evil haunted castle, your object is to find the
