That damn door!
I didn't think that much of it as far as fear goes until that ghost rushed me in the tunnel. It took too long to get the cellar door open--There wasn't any way of knowing there was an order to the tasks at hand. I found everything pretty easily, but the damn door still... So I buckled down and read the walkthrough. It worked, finally! I don't know about first Flash project, but nice just the same.
