The Ultimate Haunted House is a computer adventure game developed by Byron Preiss Multimedia/Brooklyn Multimedia and published and distributed by Microsoft Home. It places the player in the middle of a bizarrely humorous and eerie haunted house populated by Wilson's wacky characters. The player must explore 13 rooms, find 13 hidden keys, and build a monster from spare parts, before the mystery clock strikes 13.[1][2]
The game was drawn by The New Yorker cartoonist Gahan Wilson, who also appears as a character in the game. Walt Freitag and Barbara Lanza are credited as writers and designers, and Judson Rosebush as director.[citation needed] The game runs on Mac OS 7 and Microsoft Windows 3.1.[1]
