Find out more about that house. Get in there. Deal with the paranoid home owner. Prove that it's not a haunting, but rather some drafty windows or children playing pranks. Hell, once you found a hobo living inside the walls of a "haunted" office. Old house making creaking noise and lights flickering on and off is like child's play to you.
Get in, prove it's nothing, make a show of exorcising the house, leave 5000 dollars richer. What can go wrong?

Character Creation Rules
There are 7 stats:
Strength
Constitution
Dexterity
Charisma
Will
Intelligence
Education
You get 7 points as base in each of these stats, with 20 points to spread out in between. Send me your chosen occupation and I will spread out 6 additional points to what I deem fits your occupation.
Strength: Required for pushing and manipulating heavy objects. Every 4 points in strength allows you to add 1d3 damage to every melee attack that succeeds.
Constitution: Allows you to run longer and hold your breath longer. Also allows you to resist being knocked unconscious. HP is calculated Constituion * 1.5 + Strength * 1.
Charisma: Improves your chance of success at dealing with people. You may use CHA * 4, for example, to flirt with those of opposite sex.
Dexterity: Heightens reaction and increases your base dodge stat. Gives you more AP to use in combat.
Will: How good you are at maintaining a sense of identity. Can be used to resist effects of particularly charismatic characters, among other things.
Intelligence: How smart your character is. Your character quickly puts together clues, solves riddles, makes correct conclusion, and learns faster. Every point in intelligence gives you 2 more skill points. In battle, it allows your character to think faster and thus gives you more AP.
Education: Gives you 4 more skill points

Combat:
Combat is turn based. Turn order is ranked by dexterity, unless it is a surprise attack allowed by a successful conceal, hide, or sneak roll.
Every action in combat requires AP. AP is calculated Int * 0.25 + Dex * 0.5, rounded down.
Chance of Success determines whether or not you hit. The chance of success is marked by your Skill Points in the relevant skills (Handgun skill directly improves your chance of hitting with your pistol, for example). If at any point you roll below a 10, it is a critical hit. If you roll over a 95 for any reason, it is a critical failure.
Damage calculation is dependent on whatever weapon you used to hit with. Shotgun rolls 2d10 for damage, for example.
