Sound Effects
Haunted House employed segments of the well-known Bach organ piece, Toccata and Fugue in D minor, during the game's start (the pronounced opening of the Toccata), during the game itself (a repeated playback of part of the Toccata where the tune alternates quickly between one fixed note and other notes within the D Minor key), and when the game ends, the famous ending of the Fugue is played.

Famous quotes containing the words sound and/or effects:
“A village seems thus, where its able-bodied men are all plowing the ocean together, as a common field. In North Truro the women and girls may sit at their doors, and see where their husbands and brothers are harvesting their mackerel fifteen or twenty miles off, on the sea, with hundreds of white harvest wagons, just as in the country the farmers’ wives sometimes see their husbands working in a distant hillside field. But the sound of no dinner-horn can reach the fisher’s ear.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Consider what effects which might conceivably have practical bearings we conceive the object of our conception to have. Then our conception of these effects is the whole of our conception of the object.”
—Charles Sanders Peirce (1839–1914)
