Plot summary

The game acts as a sequel to the Goosebumps book, One Day at HorrorLand. Lizzy, one of the protagonists from the book, calls the player character to her that night, stating that her brother Luke and friend Clay have suddenly disappeared after a strange bout of supernatural activity in her household. The only clues she has are the Horrorland tickets they got from their last encounter with the theme park. Heading back to her house, the tickets suddenly glow and suck the player character and Lizzy back to Horrorland. Stuck there and having no choice, the both of them go in search of Luke and Clay in hopes of finding an exit to the haunted theme park. Along the way learning the origins of the park as well as the creator, Madison Storm, who built the park based on his own twisted childhood.

After making their way through the park finding Luke and Clay, gathering items to continue, and warding off the monsters that wish to harm them – the player makes it near the end to discover Madison also kidnapped Mr. and Mrs. Morris (Lizzy and Luke's parents) and wishes to destroy the family, both as a spectacle for the monsters of the park as well as revenge for escaping the park the first time and making him look like a fool in front of the monster inhabitants. Clay manages to reach the monster generator, the thing that attracted monsters to the park, and overload it causing the inhabitants to flee but in the midst of the chaos Madison grabs the Morris siblings and Clay and ties them up, intending to be blown up along with the park. The player character manages to save everyone, prevent the park from blowing up and defeat Madison all at once. Clay, however, finds the remote to the park and presses one of the buttons, triggering the self-destruction of the park. The kids manage to get out in time before it blows.

The final scene in the game sees the kids make it home; in the good ending, the parents make it back safe and greet the kids as they come home with the help of their new neighbor... "Maddy". In the bad ending, the parents fall into the pool and after the kids get home, they find that their parents have been mutated into Horrors.
