Enter the Doghouse

Please step right up and watch your head please; clearance is only one
and a half feet. Hands and knees will work just fine. Let's all shuffle
through the door, sorry about the grass stains, and please folks stay with
the group okay? Great.

This room that we are standing in now is the Grand Hall, or as my
grandpappy used to call it- the big cheese, which means nothing at
all other than the fact that my grandpappy was just a little bit
crazy. We still liked him. Anyway, some history of the house.

It was built 35 years ago by my great-great-great-great-great-great
grandpappy Snizzel's master. It was a one room doghouse at the
time- a very sad affair, but as each generation of pups passed through
it, they added their own personal touches, until it became the maze of
rooms and halls that you see behind me.

Only 10 years ago, was it discovered that something lived inside the
house with us. Or rather, it didn't live- it simply existed.

At first my forefathers thought that somehow a cat slipped in, but no, the trouble wouldn't be that
easy to fix. The alarms would have gone off on that one. No, even though cats are natural
pranksters, something had been alphabetizing our refrigerator shelves, and not even cats are that evil.

Soon after we began to notice rustling noises in the Attic, whispers in the Library, screams in the
Basement, and strange lowing sounds come from the Garden. Yes, I'm sure it's not my cousin Flapper.

Well, now that you know a bit about what we're dealing with here, why don't we get started? Yes,
follow me then down the Great Hall. As you see, we have three doors on the right, and three doors
on the left, as well as one door at the far end of the hall. That last door contains two sets of stairs-
one leading up, and the other leading down. Attic and Basement of course.

Be careful why don't you? The power flicks occasionally, there may be a draft or two, and you never
know when you might run across something very spooky! Have a good time!
