The ''Literature/GiveYourselfGoosebumps'' book where you try to expel poltergeists from your home.
"Your" house is being mysteriously vandalized and your parents think you did it, so they ground you. Your friend convinces you that it must be the work of poltergeists. When your parents go out, you're left alone in the house with the poltergeists. You must decide whether to defeat them with the help of your friends, or one of two people who shows up at the door.
----
!!''Escape from Horror House'' provides examples of:
* AdultsAreUseless: Averted in one ending, where your teacher helps you to defeat the poltergeists using magnets.
* AlmightyMom: It is possible to get a good ending where the poltergeists' mother shows up, scolds them, and drags them back to their own world.
* AndIMustScream: One storyline has you discover the walls of your basement are covered in sentient faces that are stuck that way forever. [[spoiler: Depending on your choices, they're either victims of the poltergeists, or they ''are'' the poltergeists.]]
* CreepyDoll: Several endings feature these, since your sister collects dolls.
* EnemyMine:
** One storyline involves you deciding whether to work with a medium or a ghostbuster in order to defeat poltergeists. The two hate each other and each accuses the other of being a fraud, but you have the option of making them work together just this once.
** The poltergeists do this for you in one ending, where they are so disgusted by Matilda that they scare her into confessing she's a con artist and handing herself over to the police.
* HatePlague: In one bad ending, your mother's anger makes the poltergeists grow stronger. They possess her, and then you - causing you to "infect" others and make them just as evil as the poltergeists.
* HauntedHouse: The plot of the book is you trying to get rid of poltergeists that are making your house haunted.
* MindOverMatter: A possible outcome is that there is no poltergeist -- the mysterious events in your house are caused by you, or your sister, being telekinetic and not knowing about it.
* NeverTrustATitle: Nowhere in the story are you required to escape from a house -- the story is based around you getting rid of poltergeists that have invaded a house.
* {{Poltergeist}}: They serve as the main enemies of this particular book.
* YourHeadAsplode: One of the bad endings causes this to happen to you.
