The House of the Dead (ザ・ハウス・オブ・ザ・デッド) is a Sega Model 2C CRX arcade horror light gun game developed by Sega AM1 and manufactured by Sega. First released to Japanese arcades in September 1996 to critical and commercial success, its widespread popularity established the long-running House of the Dead franchise, and the game has since been regarded as one of Sega's seminal and classic arcade titles.
In March 1998, The House of the Dead was ported to the Sega Saturn, and only two months later also saw a port to Windows PCs, both courtesy of developer Tantalus Interactive.

Versions
As was typical for Model 2-to-Sega Saturn conversions, the Saturn version runs at a lower resolution with a lower frame rate. The Saturn game uses lower quality textures and fewer polygons than the arcade.
