-------------------
World 3-Ghost House
-------------------

Get the Mushroom / Flower from the first box and hit the ? Button that turns
The slope into stairs. Climb the stairs and slide down the other side. Soon
Mario will come to a door leading to a small room with two boxes. The one on
The left has a Mushroom / Flower while the one on the right hides a Boo enemy.

Continue to the right and go through the door beside the ? Button. Jump on the
Heads of the pumpkins and hold the jump button to bounce and reach the FIRST
STAR COIN. Leave the room and hit the ? Button. Jump on the platform and from
There to the stairs. Jump to the stairs on the left before the timer runs out
And collect the SECOND STAR COIN. Hit the ? Button again, but this time jump
To the stairs on the right and keep climbing to the top. Run to the right and
Slide down the slope. At what seems to be a dead end, there is a lone block
Revealing a ? Button.

OKAY NOW FROM THIS POINT YOU HAVE 2 OPTIONS: To go trough normal exit, or to go through secret exit

NORMAL EXIT - Hit the button and climb back up to reach the door that just
Appeared. Jump to the left and up on the platforms to find a random item box.
Attempt to time it so that Mario receives a Blue Shell. Now over on the right
Side, hit the ? Button to create the stairs. Climb the stairs as fast as
Possible to reach the top. Assuming Mario was able to get the Blue Shell,
Shell Mario can break through the blocks on the right side and acquire the
THIRD STAR COIN. Through the door is the default flagpole for the stage.


SECRET EXIT - Mario must be extremely fast for this. Hit the ? Button and then
Wall Kick off the wall to the right to save time jumping up the steps. Rather
Than dropping down to the default door, keep going left and down the big slope.
Before the timer runs out there is a secret door beside the preexisting door at
The bottom. Through this door is the Ghost House's secret exit. Wall Kick off
The right side of the vertical blocks to reach the platform beside the
Flagpole.
