Maniac Mansion Hints
How do I get by that crazy lady in the kitchen?
1 of 6: First of all, don't worry if you get thrown in the dungeon: it's not the end of the game, you can get out of there.
2 of 6: Once she starts running for you, start running back for the door.
3 of 6: It takes some practice and make sure you tell the kid to "Walk to door".
4 of 6: She won't follow you through the door and will disappear.
5 of 6: The kitchen is now safe.
6 of 6: Again, don't worry if you can't do this. Being in the dungeon is not that bad.
