In their mission to unlock the front door, they'll also stumble upon a garage at the bottom of the house which holds a functional, albeit disassembled car. They must explore and find items and tools to help them open the various locks Granny keeps on her front door, all while outrunning her pursuit and hiding in the beds, coffins, and wardrobes found in the various rooms of the house.
They have been locked up in an old, decrepit house by Granny, a crazy old woman (or demon) who hunts her prey with a bloody baseball bat. The player finds themselves waking up in a bed in a room they don't recognize.
