Find the traitor with Betrayal at House on the Hill!

The house on the hill has a fearsome reputation! Betrayal at House on the Hill from Avalon Hill has quickly become a favourite of table-top gamers the world over. This fun and suspenseful game is a new experience almost every time you play. You and your friends explore “that creepy old place on the hill” until enough mystic misadventures happen that one of the players turns on all of the others! Betrayal is designed for 3–6 players aged 12 and up, and features multiple scenarios, a different lay-out with every game, and enough chills to freeze the heart of any horror fan. Each game lasts around 60 minutes but the haunt rules and 50 different ending scenarios, make it so that its very unlikely to play the same game twice!

Each copy of the base game is stuffed with components for hours upon hours of spooky fun:

  • 6 pre-painted plastic Character miniatures and corresponding Character cards
  • 80 cards (Event, Omen, and Item decks)
  • Rulebook
  • Traitors Tome booklet
  • Secrets of Survival booklet
  • Game dice
  • 45 Room tiles
  • Over 100 game tokens

If the base game didn't include enough scenarios for you, there is an awesome expansion that adds a whopping 50 new haunts! Also included in the Widow's Walk are new room tiles that introduce the Roof floor, and a ton of new omen, event and item cards. Our favourite event is one that requires you to remove your hand and replace it with an item; Groovy!

Each copy of the expansion adds the following components:

  • 1 rulebook
  • 2 haunt books (Traitor’s Tome and Secrets of Survival)
  • 20 room tiles
  • 8 omen cards
  • 11 item cards
  • 11 event cards
  • 76 tokens, including: 4 large circular monster tokens, 36 small circular explorer tokens, 36 square event and room tokens
