About This Game

Three years after Hail to the King, Ash Williams is in his favorite Dearborn, Michigan bar when a live television program called Mysteries of the Occult makes a catastrophic decision. Host Trisha Pettywood plays the famous tape recording of Professor Knowby on air as a ratings stunt. A drunken Ash shouts at the screen to stop—but no one can hear him. The Necronomicon's words are spoken, the Deadites are released into the world, and the Evil Force drifts straight to the bar. Ash shoots the newly possessed bartender and the fight begins again.
