Welcome, everyone, to the inayofuata Halloween list. Today, we will be doing something different than looking at the usual monsters, and instead, look at some haunting architecture. I am referring to the haunted house. There are many ways a house can become haunted. Weather its a murder that makes the ghosts come back to life, au an evil ritual that makes the spirits come to life, it all ends with the house being haunted with monsters, murderers, and evil spirits. So, let us take a look at some haunted houses that are interest us all. Now, first, some rules. Only ones I’ve seen, and only one per franchise. Also, these HAVE to be houses, so, as much as I hate to say it, I am excluding both The Stanley Hotel from The Shining and Heavenly Host Elementary from Corpse Party. So, with that said, let’s start the list.
#10: Tumbleweed Mansion from Red Dead Redemption
Okay, this one is the lowest in on the orodha because it is just a theory. But, even though I don’t believe in theories, this one is actually pretty interesting, and it isn’t hard to believe that Rockstar would have a ghost easter egg in this game. Anyway, Tumbleweed is an abandoned city that was once a town with many residents. However, after the railroad was invented, passing Tumbleweed and into Armadillo, people left the town, and it was soon overrun kwa bandits and turned into a gang hideout. While that is all good, it still has a very creepy atmosphere. If wewe go to the mansion in the game, wewe will see that there are quite a lot of creepy things there. First off, in the cellar, there are a pair of caskets in a corner. On the first floor is the skull of a ng'ombe just resting on the mantle. And on the sekunde floor, if wewe look through the window, wewe can see a light coming from it. No one knows what this light is, but it’s super creepy. And to help this theory a bit more, there are newspapers in the game that reads that Tumbleweed is possibly haunted and that ghosts live there. Sure, it may not be true, but with how much popularity it has on the internet, that makes it worth something.
#9: Derceto Manor from Alone in the Dark
No, don’t worry. I’m talking about the original 1992 game. Anyway, the Derceto Manor was a built in 1818 in secrecy kwa a man named Eliah Pickford, who was actually a dangerous pirate who went into hiding with his massive fortune, as well as the ability to give himself immortality with his knowledge of Necromancy. But he was found kwa U.S. troops, where he was shot and his manor set on fire. However, Eliah survived, but was resurrected as…. a tree…. Just go with it. In 1875, a man named Howard Hartwood bought the land and rebuilt the manor in order to find the treasure Eliah had hidden away in the tunnels under the manor. However, since Eliah had survived, he planned to take over the body of either Howard au his descendants in order to regain the use of his body, which one of the Hartwood descendants knew about and hung himself to avoid this. Okay, enough history lessons. So, other than the mansion being run kwa a necromancy-using immortal mti man, this place is filled with zombies, ghosts, giant spiders, a weird polygon monster that I like to call Geometry Gone Wrong, a pirate, and paintings that throw axes. Typical haunted house stuff.
#8: House from Poltergeist (SPOILERS)
And no, not that god awful remake. I mean the REAL Poltergeist. In the peaceful town of machungwa, chungwa County, California, a small family known as the Freelings live a normal life… UNTIL! One night, a group of angry spirits decide to come up from the graveyard that their house just so happens to be built on juu of and attack the family in the course of one night. And let me tell you, wewe don’t want to mess with these ghosts. They range from turning a mti into an evil monster with a mouth, having a giant portal to the other world in your closet, an evil clown doll that attacks children, invisible monsters that swing girls around the room, corpses and coffins that rise from the ground (Let me remind you, this movie was rated PG), and then sucking the hose into another dimension. Not even your California’s lord and savior, Arnold Schwarzenegger, can save them now.
#7: Mansion from The 7th Guest (SPOILERS)
Remember when this game came out and everyone called it the most revolutionary game ever. Yeah, because GTA V was never made. Anyway, this game takes place in some time in the 1900s where wewe play as Ego, who goes inside the mansion, and sees spirits of the guests who came into the mansion years ago, who are reenacting the events of when they came to the mansion. So, other than seeing the ghosts of long since dead people, wewe have to solve a large assortment of well thought out puzzles in order to continue with the game. Also, this mansion was created kwa a man named Stauf, who went around killing children with cursed dolls that he gave to them that give them a disease, which turns them into toys so he can use them for an evil ritual… Yep, that’s how point and click games were back then. Just a great barrage of insanity.
#6: Amityville House at from The Amityville Horror
The Amityville Horror sinema were awful. So, for the first time in any of my juu tens, we’re going with the book. After the DeFeo murders that took place in the Amityville House, it was thought that no one would buy the house. However, a family known as The Lutz’s soon bought the house for $80, 000 dollars. At first it seemed fine, until a priest, who offered to bless the house, became sick. And after that, things would soon become really bad. Members of the family would wake up at the exact same time the murders occurred, the house was always filled with flies, the kids would sleep on their stomachs in the same way the victims of the DeFeo murders were found, a room that was not on the blueprints of the house called the Red Room which scared the pet dog, their daughter had an imaginary pig demon for a friend, the father looked just like DeFeo and even drank at the same bar that DeFeo was at right before the murders occurred, and that’s only a little bit of the messed up things that occur in this house. All I can say is, with the upcoming Amityville Awakening coming out in 2016, I just hope we can get an actual good Amityville movie for once.
#5: Mad Monster Mansion from Banjo Kazooie
I was trying to decide weather I would put Haunted Hall from Donkey Kong Country on this orodha instead. But it felt zaidi like a mine rather than a house, so I went with Mad Monster Mansion. This is one of the smallest worlds in the game, but easily one of the zaidi difficult ones. Enemies consist of walking headstones, skeletons with giant skulls, green ghosts, bats, monsters that come out of portraits, monsters that come out of sewers, and a tentacle from the ceiling. There is a dining room that wewe need to jump on the chairs to avoid waking the ghost that is holding the Jiggy. There is a bathroom where wewe meet Loggo. There is well that wewe can swim in to collect certain objects. There’s a hedge maze, a sewer, a fountain, a shack, a church that with a giant pipe organ, and, of course, no haunted mansion is complete without a graveyard. Also, in this level, Mumbo can turn Banjo into a pumpkin, boga (Trust me, I’ll be saving a orodha like that for another time.)
#4: Clock Tower from Clock Tower
Like I alisema before, just because a house doesn’t have ghosts in it, that doesn’t mean it isn’t haunted…. A house could have a midget with scissors bigger than his body, and a giant black blob monster that chases wewe and it can still be haunted. When Jennifer and her Marafiki are adopted kwa a man named Mr. Barrows and lead their kwa their caretaker, Miss Mary. At first, things seem like they’re going to be okay… UNTIL! after a while, Jennifer and her Marafiki are separated, and after a while, it is shown that Jennifer and her Marafiki are being hunted down kwa the murderous Scissorman. Throughout the game, Scissorman is stalking Jennifer, and since Jennifer is unable to fight back, all she can do is hide from Scissorman and just hope he doesn’t find him. And that is what makes Clock Tower such a scary game. But, where is the giant blob monster I was talking about. Well, his name is Dan…. He’s a fat little guy. Poor guy. Can’t even climb after a girl when she’s going up a hill. It’s sad, really.
#3: Luigi’s Mansion from Luigi’s Mansion
Ah yes, now here is something I am used to. When Luigi wins a mansion in a contest he didn’t even compete in, he tells Mario, who agrees to meet him at the house. Only this is is that Mario is nowhere to be found. This is because Mario has, in fact, been taken kwa King Boo and made into a portrait. So yes, King Boo just kidnapped Mario himself. That is insane. So, what does Luigi do in order to save Mario? Simple, really. He takes a proton pack and starts sucking up ghosts. Super Mario and Ghostbusters. That is freaking awesome. The place is filled with all kinds of ghosts. Male ghosts, female ghosts, baby ghosts, skinny ghosts, for ghosts, weird ghosts, creepy ghosts, ghosts who look cool, ghosts that look stupid, ghosts that are just “WHAT”, and Jarvis… Jarvis is really stupid looking. And let me tell you, this is the first Haunted House I’ve seen that actually scared me. Sure, it isn’t the first haunted house I’ve seen period, that would be the movie Haunted House starring Eddie Murphy, and that wasn’t scary…. au entertaining. And that is what makes this mansion so special
#2: The Spencer Mansion from Resident Evil
Yeah, wewe all knew this was going to be on the list. The mansion was built kwa George Trevor for Oswell E. Spencer. After it was finished, Oswell invited George and his family to visit him. However, this was not Oswell’s intentions, as he brought George there to kill him, as he knew he was the only one who knew the layouts of his mansion, and experiment on his family in the lab underneath the mansion. After killing him, he began experimenting on Lisa and Jessica Trevor with the help of Umbrella's scientists. However, since Jessica was unaffected kwa the experiments, she was killed. Lisa, however, was able to turn and was soon experimented on for years, leading to one of the scariest monsters in Resident Evil. Years later, an accident occurred in the lab, and turned the researchers into zombies au B.O.Ws, leading to the S.T.A.R.S investigating, including Jill Valentine, Chris Redfield, and everyone’s inayopendelewa man with far too many cheesy quote, Berry Burton. And that is what makes the Spencer Mansion an infamous haunted house
#10: Nebbercracker’s House from Monster House (SPOILERS)
Every single house in this movie was a perfectly fine house at one point. However, all that changed due to either abandonment, rituals, poor construction decisions, evil spirits, murders, au experiments. However, what makes this house number one is the fact that, just like the other houses, there is a spirit au monster in this house. However, there isn’t a monster that is inside the house. No, it’s the house ITSELF that is the monster. It is alisema that Horace Nebbercracker, the owner of the house, had eaten his wife, and her spirit now haunts the house, but what really occurred was something else. Before the events of the movie, it was revealed that Nebbercracker was in upendo with an obese woman at a freak show, named Constance. After he helped her escaped, they got married, and began building a house. However, Constance... didn’t really like kids. Actually, she freaking hated them. One day, when she was picked on kwa a group of kids who were making fun of her size, she tried chasing them off, but Lost her footing and fell into the basement, with cement covering her after she fell to her death. Nebbercracker than finished the house, but knew that her spirit controlled the house. If anyone were to come near the house, she would eat them, and so, Nebbercracker did what he could to keep people away from the house in order to keep them safe, even pretending to hate everyone around him. This is a house that eats people, yet is able to express emotions like a normal person. And if a movie is able to make me feel bad for what is seen as a heartless monster, and that monster happens to be a goddamn HOUSE of all things, then that easily makes the number one spot.
Well, there wewe have it. Did wewe enjoy the list? Tell me what wewe thought of it below. With that said, I will see wewe all inayofuata time.
