You're the doorman at a Halloween party. Costumes are welcome. Real monsters are not.

Theme: Uninvited. Your job is to keep the uninvited guests out... all of them.

Dozens of guests line up through the night. Most are people in costumes, but some are the real thing, and a few are very good at looking human.

Check each guest, use your items to test the suspicious ones, and decide who gets in.

HOW TO PLAY

• Let a guest in: A (or click the green button)
• Turn a guest away: D (or click the red button)
• Use an item: 1, 2, 3 (or click the item icons)
• Restart after the night ends: R (or click)

ITEMS

• Cross: drives a monster away and restores a lost skull. On a human, it does nothing.
• Candy: knocks off a costume mask. Some guests react in their own way.
• Spider: humans get scared (some run off), monsters just laugh.

DON'T LOSE THE PARTY

• Let a real monster in and you lose a skull. Lose them all and the monsters take over.
• The party gauge keeps draining. Letting guests in keeps it going; turning a real guest away hurts it.

P.S. There's a secret ending. 

To see it, get through all fifty guests without a single mistake: no monster let in, no real guest turned away, and no guest scared off by a spider.
