Description

Halloween Trial: Dr. Kane's House of Horror
Required Number of Players: 4
Objectives: An old Victorian mansion situated on a hill. A lonely path leading up to the mansion, a path that winds its way through an ancient graveyard. The moon is full, the trees bare and dark. Jack O'Lanterns line the path to the door where revelers await. The mansion is home to Dr. Kane, a retired scientist known for his eccentric behavior. This year, Dr. Kane has turned his home into a haunted house and has invited all who dare to come and visit. But things are not as they seem in Dr. Kane's House of Horror - visitors are entering the mansion never to be heard from again.

In Detail

Editor's Note:

Before any character enters the haunted house, an optional boss may be spawned and fought. First, speak to the Devil Girl in the graveyard to the left of the house. Then speak to the Bored Boy and Bored Girl on the other side of the mansion. Finally, return to the Devil Girl and fight the Black Whip.

Clear the Hallways

Upon entering the zone, proceed up the stairs to the front door of the manor. Speak to the line attendant, then click on the door to enter. Up the stairs is a hallway populated with zombies. Clear through these zombies until you reach Dr. Kane. Rinse, repeat.

Defeat Experiment Number Nine

In one room, Dr. Kane will spawn an archvillain called Experiment Number Nine. He is generally understood to be fairly simple to defeat.

Defeat the Abomination

After defeating Experiment Number Nine, proceed through the cave door to the graveyard. There, Dr. Kane presents his final creation: the Abomination. This archvillain has two powerful AOE attacks, which are preceded by warning text about "raising his hands" or "raising his foot". Once the Abomination is defeated, trial rewards are given.

During the battle with the Abomination, an optional mission objective exists. The optional task requires the players to defeat 99 zombies and then the abomination within 12 minutes. Zombies are spawned by walking (not hovering) over the graves to either side. Completing this side task grants each player the "It's Alive." badge.
