Four friends return to their old high school for a party, only to find it overrun by grotesque creatures.

Play solo or team up in online or local co‑op to rack up combos, unlock weapons, and master special moves while completing varied objectives across each sprawling stage.

Cooper Chance dives into Ghoulhaven Hall to save his girlfriend Amber, battling a quirky cast of supernatural foes. The game blends platforming, beat‑em‑up combat, and dark comedy as you explore a monster‑filled mansion. Along the way, Cooper can recruit eccentric hired hands, upgrade weapons, and solve light puzzles, delivering a playful yet spooky experience for single‑player fans.
