Betrayal at House on the Hill (3rd)

Step inside the haunted halls of “Betrayal at House on the Hill (3rd Edition)” — a suspense-filled storytelling adventure where one guest turns sinister and the rest must uncover the traitor before it's too late.

This third edition refresh brings modern polish to a true classic: streamlined rules, updated graphics, and six miniatures enhance every chilling tile-drawing moment as you explore, cooperate, then survive the inevitable betrayal.

How the Game Works

You and fellow explorers draw room tiles to build the haunted house as you move, discovering items, events, and omens. When an Omen triggers the Haunt, the traitor emerges—turning the exploration phase into a thrilling one-vs-many showdown with unique objectives for each side.

At first, you work together to gather resources and information. But once the Haunt begins, sides are drawn—explorers versus traitor—and the game transforms into a battle of wits and survival, driven by one of 50 unique haunt scenarios.
