yes there is:

Spoiler
Look under both windows. There should be a loose brick undernieth one of theme. One of the players preses the brick and the door will open. But if there's only one player in the dungeon this won't work. I belive you can get a key somewhere but I don't know where, I newer needed it.

Hi!

JClarke, I won't laugh, but will warn you that
Spoiler
the chainsaw is a red herring: I've never needed it, and also never found any gas for it.
Also there are only two rooms where you can't go - without performing some tasks before -, or you'll be got: the boy and the nurse rooms.

I suppose the best is a wt: there are alot if you "google".

IIRC, in one of the later Space Quest games there's a small tank of gasoline which gives a message, "I think this belongs in another game." as a reference to Maniac Mansion's dastardly chainsaw.

Also, a hint on the key out of the dungeon:
Spoiler
It's the key located in the chandelier in the room to the right of the main entryway. Open the cabinet to find a cassete player. Now all you need is to find a blank tape and record a noise high enough to break the chandalier...

i have a question, does maniac mansion delux have a lot of glitches in it for u guys?  When i was playing it wouldnt let me use the paint remover on that wall, and then it crashed saying it has an error in like 276 or something.  Is there a way to fix this?

You have to open the paint remover first
