Can any one tell me if the tomb of horros ever came in a box?
back in high school I played afew times with friends, one friends dad DM'ed a few time and he had a module that came in a box i think it was gray, but i don't remember.
what i do remember is there was a pit of acid, we had a cave-in once, there was a spike pit another time, and we nver made it out alive!
does anyone know if this was the tomb of horrors?

I don't recall the adventure ever being sold in a box, but back in the TSR days, some products saw several different formats on their release.
As for those events, there were many, many traps in the Tomb, but I don't specifically remember an acid pit. Or a cave-in. I'm digging through my brain to try to remember the various adventures I ran/played but those specific traps don't ring a bell.
You can get Tomb of Horrors that has been updated for 4E, although I don't remember where my friend got it. He brought it to me to run for the group. We got through about 1/3rd of it and that campaign had to end due to time constraints...

As far as I know it was released as an unboxed module. However, the sequel, Return to the Tomb of Horror was released as a box set and included a reprint of the original module. Perhaps this is the one you're remembering:
