Thanks for the feedback! I completely agree on the lack of agency after the doll is picked up. I wonder if there's something in the players choosing between the House OR the Hostiles table, or pre rolling for each of the 3 exits and then deciding.

I've been mulling on this. I think if (when?) I run this Mother and Father will proactively navigate the map once the doll starts crying, setting difficulties up for the team. Move or set up a trap every time the PCs move or delay for a while. Roll on the random table for the trap, jot it down on the map, hint at it as PCs enter the room to give them a chance to be proactive.
