Item Description
Large 7.5x22.5.19" tall illustrated box contains complete and uniquely designed game. ©1962. The first version of this game featured a 3D hard plastic Hooting Owl Spinner (which is still shown on box), however, due to breakage problems this was later replaced w/a standard style spinner w/owl/spooky imagery for later releases and box had illustrated label placed over the "Hooting Owl Spinner" text so that only "Owl Spinner" text remains. Box is complete w/cardboard insert and shows scattered corner tip/edge wear w/some color rubs to bottom panel. Some scattered faint glue staining to surface as assembled, but still VF overall and nicer than typically found. "Gameboard" is actually a large, high relief hard plastic facade depicting Haunted House. Game is played vertically as house stands upright. There are four peg-shaped markers that fit into holes along the edges of the house front. Along the way these pegs are used to open secret doors to reveal instructions behind them. There are also hidden images such as Frankenstein, Dracula and a black cat. These pegs remains factory-sealed in bag w/jewel attic prize. Comes w/illustrated cardboard display platform that the house sits on that includes fold-out "Thrills & Chills" flap along w/list of game features. Some scattered glue staining around gameboard labels, but o/w clean and Exc. Comes w/aged assembly instruction sheet and photocopy of game instructions. Wonderfully designed game in unused condition.
