A brief history of the game
At first there was Midnight Mansion, now often called MM1. This game package was for Mac only and contained 8 mansions, each on easy, normal and hard level. Above that there was a builder included, so that customers could design mansions themselves.
Then there was Midnight Mansion HD, now abbreviated as MM1 HD for both Mac and Windows. It contained the 3x8 mansions from MM1 plus 3x a bonus mansion: Tomb of Princes. All in high definition!
Actionsoft's latest game, Midnight Mansion 2: The Haunted Hills, includes 28 mansions with a lot of new features. The 8 built-in mansions have 3 difficulties along with 4 extra custom mansions. Yes indeed, the MM2 package also has an included builder to create mansions!

Custom mansions

In the past decades several customers started experimenting with the builders. Creating rooms. Talking about it on the Midnight Mansion Forums. Sending their own designed mansions to other board members to test them. And finally sending them to the administrators of MMF.
Result? Nearly 200 extra mansions are downloadable from these boards and some of them have over 100 rooms.
If you like to download custom mansions, go to the General Custom Mansions Area (Mac and Windows) where you find the lists with all the download spots.

At the moment yes, but will be transferring over to Virtual Box once my free trial ends

I got Snow Leopard Server a few years ago for this reason.
And yeah I’ve already got VB setup with Snow Leopard

Thanks very much for the info.  Do you know whether S.L. server is available as a download?

I don't think so no, I think apple still sells it though, you may be able to get it off ebay for a decent price too

I found SL server on the internet and set it up in VirtualBox on my MacBook Pro with Catalina 10.15.6
The only problem is an annoying "lag" which causes Jack to jump a fraction of a second too late.  Leon, have you experienced that and do you have a workaround?
