Description adapted from Wikipedia and MobyGames

A writer named Adrienne Delaney has just moved into an old mansion with her photographer husband Donald. Shortly after moving in, Adrienne begins to experience horrifying nightmares and have odd encounters inside the creepy old abode. Furthermore, the house is having a severe effect on her husband, changing him for the worse. Adrienne must discover the secret of the house before the unknown force consumes her husband, and unravel the terrible events that have happened in the past.

Phantasmagoria is a psychological horror point-and-click adventure game designed by game developer Roberta Williams. It is notable for being the first game to use a live actor as an on-screen avatar. Featuring graphic gore, violence, and a rape scene, the game stirred controversy over age restrictions. It was banned in some countries and in other countries some retailers refused to stock it. The game gives players the option to exclude access to explicit scenes.

Here is a review with some additional links.

Thanks man, Ive had this application before. Wasnt quite sure if it dealt with .sit files or not, been good with other types never the less.

Sounds like you are trying to uncompress the Stuffit 5.5 files using Unstuffit in OS X. What you describe is a typical symptom. Try using the Unarchiver instead. That should be OK.

Little help here, Ive downloaded 3 CDs so far and get an error message saying I dont have permission to access the location Im decompressing the .toast file to.

For example - "PHANTAS#1 couldn’t be moved because you don’t have permission to access “Desktop”.

Then it asks if I want to change my location but it seems to give me the same error message anywhere on my HD. Any help would be great!!

Cheers.

I think this has been on our "wanted" list for a while.
