* CreepyChil: Wednesday, who's hanging out in the graveyard.

The player is a visitor exploring the Addams' mansion, and the most obvious objective is survival. Not that it's easy, with the swamp and the graveyard out back, the electric chair in the parlor, the kicking bear carpet, secret passageways, and the blades flying around during the Mamushka. While Gomez and Morticia try to be supportive in their own way, Thing is ready to [[StealthPun lend a hand]] by helping you work the flippers. If you can get through all thirteen rooms (game modes), you get to [[WizardMode Tour The Mansion]] for some really high scores.

* BookcasePassage: The bookcase leading to the Vault.

-->'''Gomez:''' "Dirty pool, old man. I LIKE it!"

* TheDevTeamThinksOfEverything / NotCheatingUnlessYouGetCaught: If the player manages to shoot a pinball into the Vault while the Bookcase is closed, G-R-E-E-D will automatically be spelled, the bookcase will open instantly, and the first ball is locked. Gomez even compliments you on it.

-->'''Gomez:''' "That´s the spirit, Thing, lend a hand!"

* MickeyMousing: During the attract mode, the machine will occassionally flip the lower flippers in tune to the finger-snapping of the ddams' Family theme.

'''Morticia:''' "Rest in peace."
