    The Halls of Illusion is a level that was cut from MediEvil.[2] According to the game's producer, Chris Sorrell, the level was a 'maze' featuring a lot of mirror-based puzzles. The primary enemies would have been Dan's doppelgängers who would emerge out of the mirrors to fight him.[3][1]

    A very rough version of the level appears in the MediEvil ECTS Pre-Alpha. No enemies or items are present in the level at this early stage, but its WAD and VLO confirm that Dan's doppelgängers were set to appear here.
