The premise, in the publisher's words

A side-scrolling beat 'em up based on vintage horror movies. Many years ago, the mad doctor and his creepy crew moved into a dilapidated ruin, now known as Creepy Castle. Dare you enter? The moon is full, the bats are on the wing and the surrounding woods are alive with werewolves. The graveyard is crawling with ghastly ghoulies and the castle halls are infested with voracious vampires. An innocent girl has been kidnapped and the doctor's fiendish fun has just begun. But if you're thinking about crashing this party, you'd better think twice! You'll have to battle wave after wave of hair-raising horrors to rescue their hapless victim... and you may not have what it takes!
