YMMV / Diary of a Mad Mummy

• Ass Pull: Diary of a Mad Mummy has a scenario where the titular mummy, who remains The Unseen for most of the adventure until that point, follows you all the way from the museum to your hotel room, intending to hunt you down for stealing his ancient diary. All you can see from your room's peep-hole is a mummified hand reaching at your door. One of the plausible outcomes at that point is that the entire thing is actually a prank by your brother, Derek — the "mummy" is actually the badly-bandaged hand of a hotel bellhop your parents told to check on you (which, trying to fight back against the "mummy" will have you beating down an unarmed man) while the supernatural diary is actually a homemade DIY project made by Derek by soaking paper in coffee. The only plausible way for this scenario to play out is that 1. You'll need to be so incredibly dumb to the point of being unable to tell the difference between a homemade DIY-project and a 5,000-year-old artifact, and 2. There apparently exists a hotel in San Francisco who is blatantly negligent towards employees, including making it's staff work with an entire bandaged hand. It also has the Contrived Coincidence that the reason the mummy disappeared is that it just so happened that you went to the museum the exact same night a group of burglars broke in and stole the mummy.
