House of Hell

No, I don't mean this house, or any house I lived in. I mean the Fighting Fantasy Gamebook aptly titled House of Hell. I said aptly titled not only because it was a horror game story, but because it was notoriously difficult to complete. When I was a child, it was meant to be the gamebook from Hell. In fact, I failed miserably to get through it numerous time, until my brother PJ bought it for me for my birthday. I just Googled the gameplay that got me to victory. And I did not bother with dices (but who ever did with Fighting Fantasy Gamebook?). I believe my copy is somewhere at my parents' place. For all its many flaws, House of Hell was still full of nice little spooky atmsphere and one of the first dip I had into the horror genre. So I was thinking maybe it could be a good gamebook to have during my countdown to Halloween. Just a thought. And you, ever played this one? What did you think of it?
