My group played the same haunt over the weekend and had a similar sounding experience:[o]
As heroes our objective was to find the book, do knowledge rolls at a location and again with the book, then go after the Mummy. The next player to go after the haunting comes out is very close to the mummy in the basement, but decides to reveal a room and draws an omen which gives him the book. Play gets back to the mummy who moves to the player with the book and smacks him down in one hit (might 8 versus 3). The book is dropped, and the mummy picks it up. The 3 other heroes have only 3-4 might, but know we need the book so we attempt to steal the book from the mummy and grab the Girl. None of our attacks come even close to killing him with 8 dice rolled versus 3-4. It didn't take long for the Mummy to pick us off 1 by 1, the traitor just simply ignored his normal objective and went for the last man standing win.
