Map of Mansion Halls of Madness

Letters in italics refer to marked spots on the map. Sector, thing, and linedef numbers in boldface are secrets which count toward the end-of-level tally.

Secrets

1. Inside the building, climb the main steps and head west. Face south and go onto a crate with a dead zombieman. Open the wooden wall here to get a berserk pack. (sector 568)
2. In the library, climb the steps at the south end to the yellow door. Get on the shelves and follow the candles northwest. The mural will open. Head south on the next few shelves, then head east to get the soul sphere. (sector 933)
3. In the laboratory, climb to the top shelf and face west. Shoot the switch there to lower the northeast shelf, which contains armor bonuses and partial invisibility. (sector 1224)
