Description:	This is the DOOM2 version of the House of Doom. There are many changes to this version from the Doom 1.9 version released. I have added more sounds, more graphics, skill levels, and new additions to the map. It now also has a title screen. It's just better. This WAD is based around a haunted apartment I used to live at. The upstairs is a very close simulation of the actual layout of the house.
Credits:	Bill's Pumping Service Midi: "Temple of the Bull" by Forensic Music (C)1995 SKY1 star texture from UAC_DEAD. Various WAV's of unknown origin. WAV clip from "Iron Man" by Black Sabbath.

Anonymous	Pretty cool, but you can exit in under 3 seconds.	x
Anonymous	This is dated February 1998. I can't say that I've played the original House of Doom; this is kind of "my house" level, better than most. It suffers from the old problems - lots of tiny cramped rooms, and it's not helped by a cartoony sound replacement. Then again, the lighting and textures are atmospheric, and it has a clever surprise maze, although it's a bugger to navigate. The action's decent, and tight on the ammo.	x
Anonymous	Heh, not bad.	x
Anonymous	Wow! I rather like this. Best maze trap ever!!! 5/5 - Optimus	x

Description             : This is the DOOM2 version of the House of Doom. There are many changes
			  to this version from the Doom 1.9 version released. I have added more
			  sounds, more graphics, skill levels, and new additions to the map. It
			  now also has a title screen. It's just better.

This WAD is based around a haunted apartment I used to live at.
			  The upstairs is a very close simulation of the actual layout
			  of the house.

Additional Credits to   : Bill's Pumping Service
			  Midi: "Temple of the Bull" by Forensic Music (C)1995
			  SKY1 star texture from UAC_DEAD.
			  Various WAV's of unknown origin.
			  WAV clip from "Iron Man" by Black Sabbath.

Notes                   : This WAD was inspired by the many strange events that took place
			  at my old apartment. Strange footsteps, door handles turning, lights
			  turning themselves on and off, strange voices at night, and other
			  bizarre events would occur there. My brother even claimed to have
			  actually seen a spirit there one time. It was always joked that the
			  stairs to the lower section was a gateway to hell, so I created what
			  I imagined could possibly be down there. Hopefully, this level will
			  scare the s#!t out of you like it did me. I have since moved to a
			  different house.

This is the final release of the House of Doom. I have plans for
			  bigger and better projects which will probably be total conversions.
