Hugo's House of Horrors is a computer game released in 1990. Gray Design Associates created a parser-based adventure game reminiscent of the Sierra Entertainment "Quest" games (such as King's Quest and Space Quest). The game is also a strange and unique adventure into the realm of tongue-in-cheek comedy.
In 1991 GDA released a sequel, Whodunit?, and in 1992 a third installment, Jungle of Doom. Nitemare 3-D, a game that came out in 1994, is arguably the fourth (and so far final) installment of the Hugo series, though Nitemare 3-D, instead of being an adventure game, is a Wolfenstein 3D clone, in which Hugo ventures into the haunted mansion to rescue Penelope by shooting enemies with several types of guns. The Hugo Trilogy can also be found on The Complete Encyclopedia of Games for DOS.
