The Maze

The Maze, also known as the Scary Maze Game, is a Flash game created in 2004. It was made by game developer Jeremy Winterrowd.

This Flash prank disguises itself as a simple maze game in which the player has to move its mouse cursor to progress through the maze. At the start screen, there is note telling the player to beat all four levels to intrigue them further into the game. However, there are actually only three levels. 

The first two levels are really easy to complete. But as the third level is reached, the walls begin to shrink, making it very hard to avoid touching them. This usually makes the player concentrate on the screen. Then, near the very end of the maze, a picture of Regan MacNeil from the movie The Exorcist appears along with two loud screams, scaring the user. 

The game was uploaded in 2005 on Jeremy's website, Winterrowd.com. The original version of the game had some slight differences in color, where orange was used instead of turquoise. There was also an alternative version of the game used in America's Funniest Home Videos, where the picture that pops up is replaced with the one from What's Wrong, due to copyright laws.
