This week's horror retrogaming pick is Dangerous Dave in the Haunted Mansion for MS-Dos and Apple II computers. Its a platform game where you fight zombies, goblins and other creatures in a haunted house while trying to find your brother Delbert. The game is also known as Dangerous Dave 2, as it is the second in the platforming series made by future id Software Alum John Carmack, John Romero, Tom Hall and Adrian Carmack. Its amazing to play an early selection from the guys who would go on to make games like Doom, Wolfenstein 3D and Quake! While this game isn't horrific, per se, you do fight beast and blow them away with a shotgun which turns them into ground meat. Its horror if you ask me!

Every Thursday, I put out a video in my Horror Retrogaming Series. In this series, I'm trying to illustrate how horror has been presented and evolved in gaming these past few decades through retro horror games. I will trace this evolution by playing adaptations of horror movies and books, early survival horror games, and any horror retro games that tried to actually be scary. I'm a huge horror fan, and this series is the flagship show of my channel.

I recorded this gameplay using XSplit video and found the game on The Internet Archive at www.archive.org
