About the game
Get ready for more scares and treasures with the Creepy Cellar expansion for Ghost Fightin' Treasure Hunters! If you thought the house was spooky enough, think again. This time, the Ghost King has arrived to complicate things, and the front doors only open after you've brought the treasures down to the cellar. This expansion supercharges the cooperative gameplay we already love with a larger board, two new rooms, and a brand-new win condition. Twelve cursed treasures await to inflict 'dangerous disabilities' on you while you carry them – watch your step! And the main villain? The Ghost King, an undefeated blue specter who will give you plenty of trouble. Oh, and there are also secret passages, trapdoors, and jinxed items to make everything even more exciting. It's the perfect addition for those who want more challenges and twists in the base game, maintaining cooperative fun and tension in the air. Ideal for extending the lifespan of the game and for those who enjoy a good family challenge, with a touch of light horror and plenty of team strategy.
