In the first level, lots of paranormal things occur, like the piano playing by itself, the sword trying to kill Alyssa, and the jolt that strikes Alyssa when she first enters the Tate house. Any explanation?

Hmm...I've always wondered about that too.

Well, in the guide, they said that the last paranormal occurance (the skull smoke that rose up through stephanie) was just a hallucination; Alyssa was not mentally well to begin with (I know, it's just MPD but she was weak).
There were records of people who hallucinate bad things happening to them, when unconciously, they were doing it to themselves; for example the sword that floated and went through Alyssa and killed her. It could have been the works of her mind, she thought it rose and came at her, when in truth she picked it up and killed herself. Plus, it could have been just the statue...remember kids don't touch anything that you don't know is dangerous or not! ^-^

The "spirit" that Alyssa saw rise from Stephanie was supposed to be a hallucination caused by the toxin in the statue. I don't think the other things could have been hallucinations though. My theory is that it was the spirit of Ashley, who had suffered a horrible death. She was close with Alyssa, and tried to warn her the minute she entered that something was wrong, but something happened as time passed. Perhaps she started attacking Alyssa to protect her sister, Stephanie from harm? Or maybe she had deducted that what was happening was Alyssa's fault? Quite possibly it was because she learned of Bates existence and deemed her cousin and dangerous person who was "cursed".
Evidence that supports this is mainly evident in Ashley's room, where a complicated melody is played by her piano. Would just any spirit have this skill and just happen to be haunting the house? Seems unlikely. Another hint is that she is killed in the house just moments before Alyssa arrives. Because of her "living" arm or perhaps because of her murder or her family being in danger, maybe she is unable or does not wish to pass on

...that is very interesting... I was gonna say that the maxwell curse did infact existed, but then again I think they...wait, Bates is the curse...
So dead girl haunts house with manly (almost like and possibly George's) voice. Dead boy become zombie and kills wearing a samurai armour. Infected little girl goes psyco. Man and his wife go paranoid. School girl struggles (within hehehe) with her alter ego and fall victim to all the event in the house which was lead by ....blah blah, by here I go off and get out of topic...so I stop.
But the laughing...wasn't that Stephanie's Laugh?

Stephanie's laughter was probably not a paranormal occurence.
Michael was niether dead nor a zombie during the first level.
Maxwell's voice on the phone could have actually been him somehow. We know he had to be nearby, since he infected Ashley. As for his voice when the statue attacks Alyssa, it could have been a subconscious thing.

Michael WAS a zombie during the first level if you say 'ooooh spooky' or something.(the samurai armour follows you, that's Michael!) and he dies at least two ways in the first level. (stabbed on the chest by a knife and he also falls fromm the celling onto the table {I think he was stabbed first})
How did Maxwell infect Ashley?

You are very mixed up.
Micheal was NOT a zombie at all in the first level, and there was only one method for him to die and it did not coincide with him in the armor and resulted in a game over.
Maxwell infected Ashley at some point during her walk home from school, thus why she was late and her parents were worried. As for how, I would think and injection, since that is apparently the only way to do it.

what? I'm sure I read in the 'guide' tha Michael hid in the armour and got infected and became a killing zombie like Stephanie and George.
When you check the statue for the first time, if there's a scream Michael is dead. If there isn't, the armour 'comes to life' and tries to kill you (Michael is in the armour)
oh, I see...Michael didn't die in the armour, he was just infected, like stephanie...

When they say "murderous zombie", they do not mean a literal zombie. Only Ashley became a zombie, along with the hospital staff/patients and some people at the lab. Michael apparently went insane from the gangrene paste inside the helmet, which caused him to start killing people. The toxin that infected Stephanie was in the golden statue, and since it seems highly unlikely he ever touched it long enough to go mad, it could not be that.
The only way for him to die in the first level is to be stabbed by Stephanie, and that will ultimately result in a bad ending/game over later on. Him falling through the roof will only occur if you have found him stabbed like that first. Don't ask me how the heck he got on the roof, though.
