Description:	As usually at that time of the year, Hades was really, really bored. Aside from the usual job of taking care of the poor dead people, there was not much else he could do -- all of the goddesses were on vacations in far away lands, and Persephone herself was too busy watching the soap operas to even look at him. And that's when he came up with an idea how to entertain himself -- to build a maze- like house, put one of those unworthy mortals in it, and see if he'll be able to find the way out. Sadly enough, you happened to be the only person Hades could find before the sunlight started to hurt his eyes. And thus you have been dragged into the underworld, placed in the House, and the game began. The grand prize is your life.

Anonymous	As a start map to a larger episode this is ok I suppose but I really was not impressed. there are some nice areas like the start room with the pyramid-like staircase and no faults in the map it's self I could see, however this was a very easy map and understandably short because it was intended for a full episode, however as far as I can tell only the 1st and 2nd maps were released. On its own this map is only worth 2/5 sorry guys but this is what I personally think.	x
Anonymous	Good for 1994, but its sequel (HHH-22.WAD) is much better. 3.5/5	x
Anonymous	Short?!? Maybe because you don't know that it's a part of a full megawad (E2M1 - E2M9)... I vote 5/5 because it's surely one of the most well known pwad from the 94's - Jive	x
Anonymous	Very good for 94, but short.	x

This is the first part of the "Hades' House of Horrors" series.  Part two,
HHH-22.WAD, is in the making right now.  I'm planning to create a complete 
"Hades'" episode (L1-8).  More on the story as it develops.
