Press to scroll through items, then press to use one. Some items destroy monsters, some give you special powers and some are unpredictable!

Below the item is a number which shows how many uses of that item you have remaining. When you run out of uses, the item will be dropped from your inventory.

Key	You need these to open doors.
Skeleton Key	Opens the skull doors.
Monster Potion (red bottle)	Become a purple beast with attitude and bash through walls, hedges, doors and monsters. You are invincible until the potion wears off.
Ghost Kid Potion (blue bottle)	Turn into a spectre and roam freely. You can’t be hurt, but you can’t shoot any monsters either!
Random Potion (question mark bottle)	There is no way to know what effect this potion will have. It could restore your health, give you a speed boost, cause damage, or turn you into the purple beast. There are other effects that you will have to discover on your own, but we’ll warn you that if you turn green, you turn mean!
Pandora’s Box	The golden chest releases energy blasts when used. They seek and destroy those nocturnal terrors chasing you.
Speed Shoes	These Transylvania Knights 3000 cross-training shoes are great for sprinting around the hood. The effect is temporary but cool!
Decoys	These inflatable punching clowns attract monsters and draw the attention away from you.
First Aid Kit	This restores your health bar to full force. Use it wisely.
Extra Life	This gives you an extra life – one more chance to clobber those monsters!
Question Mark	Pick this up and finish the level to be sent to a bonus stage!

Press to change weapon and to use one. Remember, a weapon may work better on one type of monster than it does on another.

Below the weapon is a number which shows how many shots/uses of that weapon you have remaining. When you run out of shots or uses, the weapon will be dropped from your inventory.

Squirt Gun Refill	Your starting weapon is good for beating the average ghoul, and these refills are easy to find.
Soda Pop Cans	These work like hand grenades, exploding on impact and eliminating most low-powered monsters in one shot. Great against Evil Dolls!
Bazooka	Very powerful! Use it to blow holes through cracked walls and weak spots in hedges. Good against Lumberjack Maniacs.
Fire Extinguisher	Freeze monsters. A long blast for a long freeze or a short blast for a quick freeze. This is one of only two weapons that are effective against the Jelly Blobs (ice pops are the other).
Weed-Eater	Cuts through weeds...and monsters!
Ancient Artifact	This talisman will produce a spinning fire that protects you and destroys the monsters it touches.
Silverware	An excellent weapon when you come across a Werewolf or two!
Plates	Effective if you have nothing else to use.
Martian Bubble Gun	Captures the target in a temporary bubble. Try it on ants!
Tomatoes	Not as good as plates, but Martians hate them.
Ice Pops	These can destroy the Jelly Blobs when you toss them from a short distance.
Football	Throw this at enemies to defeat them. Or have a Zombie Football Player “go long”.
