Scared Stiff has a B-movie horror theme and features horror show hostess Elvira. Players have to go through the Six Tales Of Terror to level up the Stiff ‘O Meter. These are: Eyes Of The Bony Beast, Terror From The Crate, the Stiff In The Coffin, the Monster’s Lab, Night Of The Leapers, and the Return Of The Deadheads. 

The interactive backbox contains a player controlled spinning spider. It is used to collect unique features and start special modes. Scared Stiff has a great theme and cheesy humor which is what makes it so memorable. The first time you complete the Stiff ‘O Meter you will think the machine is having a meltdown. As a side note, I have had this game in my personal collection for many years and absolutely love it!
