Sammy Kar: Don't know if this is what you're thinking of:http://shopping.yahoo.com/p:Scooby-Doo%20Haunted%2..."Scooby-Doo Haunted House 3D Board Game"The description mentions a knight....Show more

Lonnie Jehle: Sounds like you're talking about "1313 Dead End Drive", aka "13 Dead End Drive" "13 Dead End Drive" was released in 1993, with it being re-issued as "1313 Dead End Drive' in 2002. Of course, there were minor differences, but they are basically the same game.For more info and good photos:* 13 Dead End Drive (1993)http://www.boardgamegeek.com/game/1899* 1313 Dead End Drive (2002)http://www.boardgamegeek.com/game/4953Both Dead End Drive games are bluffing games where you should try to conceal your identity, as well as trying to reveal the others. On your turn you are moving two of the characters on the board (could be yours and/or the others). Movement is decided by dice (you chose which dice you use for each character you chooses to move).You are always trying! to "knock off" the other heirs because as they are gone, their moneybags move down the will to the next heir in line. The board is a 3D house with several traps, which you use to get rid of the other heirs - if a character lands on a trap space, you may try to spring the trap. You can bluff by moving your opponents' characters towards the entrance or moving your own character onto the trap spaces, but without releasing it.In the 1993 version (13 Dead End Drive) there is a portrait above the stove which contains cards for each character plus Aunt Agatha.When you throw a double, you may change the portrait. There is no such portrait in the 2002 version (1313 Dead End Drive).The main difference is how the game is won...The 1993 version (13 Dead End Drive):You can win the game in three different ways:1) If you can move your own game counter out of the house when it's the same as the portrait on the wall.2) If your game counter is the last surviving.3) If your game counter's! portrait is on the wall when the detective enters the main en! trance.The 2002 version (1313 Dead End Drive):The game is won when either everyone is out of the mansion or when the last card (Clock Strikes Midnight) is drawn from the deck. You win by having the most moneybags (of the 20 available) of any of the players.The 1993 version (13 Dead End Drive) has the detective, The 2002 version (1313 Dead End Drive) does not. The games was lost if no one had won by the time the detective arrived at the front door.Hope this helps - Have Fun!...Show more
