The game was released in 1995 and was followed by a sequel, Phantasmagoria: A Puzzle of Flesh released in 1996. Made during the height of the "interactive movie" boom in the computer game industry, Phantasmagoria is notable for being one of the first adventure games to use a live actor as an on-screen avatar, as it starred Victoria Morsell. The game was released on seven CDs to accommodate the massive amount of video generated by this process, the creation of which was contracted by Sierra to Kronos Digital Entertainment . Large portions of data were repeated on each CD, to avoid disk swapping when playing the game. * STORY PHANTASMAGORIA 1 : * The story by Roberta Williams, revolves around paperback writer Adrienne Delaney, who has together with her husband Donald Gordon just bought a remote, enormous mansion previously owned by a famous magician in the late 19th century, Zoltan Carnovasch (Carno). Adrienne is hoping to get in the mood for writing her next novel and Don, a photographer, wants to photograph things. Immediately upon moving into the house, Adrienne begins having nightmares. Unknown to the happy two, Zoltan the magician practiced black magic and had summoned an evil demon which possessed him, causing him to murder his wives. Adrienne unwittingly releases it shortly after moving in during her exploration of the manor and it possesses Don. Don becomes more aggressive towards his wife and even rapes her in a controversial scene. Soon she receives ominous messages from a fortune teller machine in the manor, as well as occasionally hearing strange music. She meets Harriet, a homeless superstitious woman taking refuge in her barn along with her mentally challenged son. Adrienne digs into her new home's history and learns of the deaths of Zoltan's wives and his daughter Sofia. As far as the townspeople know, the wives died naturally however tragically, but as Adrienne explores the house she starts to see visions of the murders taking place. Zoltan murdered his wives in grotesque ways remotely connected to their enjoyed hobby or career; Hortencia, who spent most of her time in the greenhouse is stabbed with gardening tools before being suffocated with mulch; Victoria (an alcoholic) is killed when Zoltan slams her head onto a wine bottle that's on the table during an argument (the bottle goes through her eye); an overly talkative third wife, Leonora, has her head turned 360 degrees in one of Zoltan's contraptions , and finally (in another of the game's most controversial film sequences), the food-loving Regina is force fed animal entrails through a funnel until she chokes and dies. Exploring further, Adrienne finds out that Zoltan met his demise when his last wife, Marie, realized he was a murderer. Marie conspired with her lover, Gaston, to kill Zoltan by sabotaging the equipment for his most famous and dangerous escapology trick; inspired by "The Pit and the Pendulum" by Edgar Allan Poe, Zoltan would escape from being strapped to a chair with a built-in axe that swung back and forth above him and lowering until it killed him, all while his head was covered with a burning hood. The plan went wrong and both Marie and Gaston were killed by a rather much alive Zoltan two weeks later, although Zoltan is killed at the hands of a mutilated Gaston before the latter dies from his injuries. The sole witness to these events was a young boy by the name of Malcolm. Now 110 years old, he informs Adrienne of what occurred and how she must stop the evil. Meanwhile, Harriet, fearing for her safety, decides to leave as Don becomes more abusive and erratic. After finding the disturbing contents of her husband's darkroom, Adrienne is sexually assaulted and then chased around the manor by the now deranged and homicidal Don until she is confronted by him wearing the now dead Harriet's scalp and hair. She manages to kill him and release the demon despite being placed in the chair/axe contraption last used by Zoltan to kill Marie. With the demon released she brings it to a dungeon downstairs and is able to perform a ritual that traps the demon before it can kill her. With the demon and her husband dead she leaves the house with the nightmare behind her * STORY : PHANTASMAGORIA 2 * In the game the player controls Curtis Craig, an introverted 26-year old man who, on the surface, seems to be living a mundane life, while working at a pharmaceutical company. However, the player quickly learns that nothing in this game's environment is what it may appear to be.[1] Curtis has been released from a mental institution one year prior to the game's events, and has regular visits with a therapist. His mental health problems largely stem from having an abusive mother who committed suicide and a father who, before he died, was working on a top secret project at Wyntech, the same company where Curtis is currently employed. Recently Curtis has been seeing and hearing strange things that might be hallucinations or something more horrific. One day, Bob, an unpleasant and backstabbing coworker is brutally murdered in Curtis' cubicle. Though Bob was generally disliked, Curtis has expressed the desire to kill him, which leads him to suspect that he may have murdered him in a psychotic break. While Curtis is dating a female office coworker Jocelyn, he also becomes involved with a more liberated woman, Therese who introduces him to the local S&M fetish scene. His best friend Trevor is an openly homosexual man, and Curtis himself admits to his therapist he is likely bisexual, claiming to be attracted to Trevor. After Curtis' superior Tom is murdered as well; Curtis suspects his boss, Paul Allen Warner (who had threatened Tom the previous day) to have murdered him and possibly Bob as well. As the number of deaths and hallucinations keeps increasing he eventually discovers this is all connected to "Project Threshold", the project his father had worked on. Decades prior, Wyntech had discovered a rift leading to "Dimension X" in the basement of their building and sought to use it for monetary gain, performing experiments using mental patients supplied by the corrupt Dr Merrick, a doctor at the asylum where Craig was committed. At one point, Warner even used the then pre-pubescent Craig as a subject, without his father's permission. The project was eventually shut down when the military showed no interest but was recently reactivated when Warner discovered the inhabitants of Dimension X could synthesize any chemical desired at the cost of some components and a couple of "human specimens". Warner planned on sacrificing several people in exchange for a highly addictive antidepressant/weight loss drug, which would then be released on the market, causing the Earth's population to become hopelessly addicted on the product and making Wyntech the most powerful corporation on Earth. When Curtis confronts Warner over this, the latter is suddenly knocked out by a horrifying humanoid creature that introduces itself as a "manifestation" of the real Curtis Craig. It turns out that the Curtis that came out of the rift is in fact an alien duplicate while the real Curtis was trapped on Dimension X and became hideously mutated as a result. The real Curtis was responsible for the murders and hallucinations with the purpose of driving the duplicate Curtis insane so that he could take over his body. The duplicate Curtis escapes the manifestation through the Dimension X portal, kills the real Curtis and returns to Earth. Jocelyn suddenly appears revealing that (somehow) she knows the truth and that she loves him. However, a message from the inhabitants of Dimension X is heard asking Curtis to return since he doesn't belong on Earth. The player then has the choice between two endings: either Curtis chooses to leave, in which case he spends one last day with Jocelyn before departing or he chooses to remain on Earth. If the player chooses the latter, we see Curtis and Jocelyn talking happily in a restaurant while the camera focus on Curtis' hand beneath the table which morphs into a grotesque blob before changing back. A post-credits scene shows the still-living severed head of Warner suspended in the air in Dimension X. ***** enjoy ... ******

This games that are old and don´t run in the new operative systems and only in 32bit , so it was because of that the dosbox emulator was needed to be possible the gameplay in the new operative systems and in 64bits machines , they are really fantastic interactive horror games that deserve to be taked a look and played and for the first time we see a file that have appropriate dosbox executables that runs the games easily anywhere on the computer without the need to have the dosbox emulator installed or having a folder with the games in a exact location , for games using the dosbox emulator this is certainly a perfect work .
Finally just to say that possible negative votes that this file get with really a absolute correct workit is only possible with some morrons of the concorrence guys that have an unrespectfull procedure in their conception of making files with is possible to get negative votes in a really positive work under the circunstances .
i know from myself that will never ocurred me, that normal nice user of this file be capable in his conscience to give a negative note in a nice conception work like this , really only morons for jealous !!!

 globeplus (2010-06-04)

I´d like to say too , without ofense for the files for this games , that on that files are needed to install 7 discs in succession for the first game and 5 discs for the second and beside that the user need the dosbox installed and the game in a appropriate and if all of this not enough for the latest operative systems and 64 bits machine is really needed an appropriate installer from the games maker , what i mean it´s that is possible to simplify the use of the dosbox emulator but in this case , creating appropriate executables for the game we want to launch , the work of the other files are absolute irrepreensivel and just the fact in uploading so nice games with a little complex use deserve respect , thank you guys for your files and remember the use of the games using the dosbox emulator have always a shot to be simplified . THANK YOU .

iopposeband (2011-03-02)

Thanks for the games! I'm having problems with #2 though. The video is choppy and sometimes lags. Is there a way to fix this? My machine is quite new too. I'm running a 2.53ghz i5 with a gig of dedicated graphics and 4 gigs of ram. Anyone know?

k-line (2011-05-22)

iopposeband, I remember DOSBOX has a feature to adjust emulated CPU clock (CTRL+F11 decreases the clock while CTRL-F12 increases the clock). It is designed so that some very old games do not run too fast. See the section "9. How to run resource-demanding games" in README.txt of DOSBOX for more information.
