             NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
            SEPTEMBER  30, 1995 AND DECEMBER 31, 1994


(1)  BASIS OF PRESENTATION

   (A) CORPORATE ORGANIZATION

       The   accompanying   consolidated   financial   statements
       include  the accounts of Debbie Reynolds Hotel  &  Casino,
       Inc.,  formerly  Halter Venture Corporation  (Halter)  and
       its  wholly-owned subsidiaries Debbie Reynolds  Management
       Company,  Inc., formerly Debbie Reynolds Hotel  &  Casino,
       Inc.  (DRHC)  and  Debbie Reynolds  Resorts,  Inc.  (DRRI)
       (collectively  the  Companies).   The  December  31,  1994
       balance  sheet  data  was derived from  audited  financial
       statements  of  the Debbie Reynolds Hotel & Casino,  Inc.,
       but   does   not  include  all  disclosures  required   by
       generally  accepted  accounting  principles.    Users   of
       financial information provided for interim periods  should
       refer  to  the annual financial information and  footnotes
       contained  in  the  Annual  Report  on  Form  10-KSB  when
       reviewing the interim financial results presented  herein.
       All  intercompany  accounts  and  transactions  have  been
       eliminated in consolidation.

       In  the  opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited
       interim  financial statements are prepared  in  accordance
       with  the  instructions  on Form 10-QSB  and  contain  all
       material  adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring
       adjustments,  necessary to present  fairly  the  financial
       condition,  results of operations and cash  flows  of  the
       Company  for  the  respective interim  periods  presented.
       The   current  period  results  of  operations   are   not
       necessarily  indicative of results which  ultimately  will
       be reported for the full year ending December 31, 1995.

       On  November  18, 1994, the shareholders  of  the  Company
       elected  at their annual shareholders' meeting  to  change
       the  name  of  the Company from Halter Venture Corporation
       to Debbie Reynolds Hotel & Casino, Inc.

   (B) MERGER

       Effective  February  11,  1994,  Halter  entered  into  an
       Agreement  of  Merger  and  Plan  of  Reorganization,   as
       amended  and restated on March 10, 1994 (Agreement),  with
       Maxim   Properties  Company  (Maxim),  a  privately   held
       Colorado  corporation, DRHC and Hamlett  Production,  Ltd.
       (HPL),  both  privately  held  Nevada  corporations,   and
       others.   The  mergers contemplated by the Agreement  were
       consummated  as  of March 22, 1994.  Under the  Agreement,
       HPL Acquisition Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary  of
       Halter,  merged  with  and into DRHC,  formerly  HPL,  the
       surviving  corporation  (the DRHC Merger).   In  addition,
       MPC    Acquisition   Corporation,   another   wholly-owned
       subsidiary  of  Halter, merged with and  into  Maxim,  the
       surviving  corporation  (the  Maxim  Merger).   The   DRHC
       Merger  and  the  Maxim  Merger  are  referred  to  herein
       collectively as the "Mergers."

       Pursuant  to  the  Mergers, Halter  acquired  all  of  the
       outstanding  securities of DRHC and Maxim in exchange  for
       the  issuance of 2,850,833 shares of Halter's common stock
       to  the  Maxim shareholders and other related parties  and
       2,350,833  shares  of Halter's common stock  to  the  DRHC
       shareholder.  Prior to the closing, DRHC merged  with  and
       into  HPL,  and

                   DEBBIE REYNOLDS HOTEL & CASINO, INC.
             NOTES TO UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, Continued


       HPL changed its name to Debbie  Reynolds Hotel  &  Casino,
       Inc.  In  connection   with  the  Mergers,  DRHC  obtained
       financing  consisting   of   convertible promissory  notes
       in  the  amount of  $2,553,500  and  one  other   note  of
       $800,000.    In  conjunction  with   the    Mergers,   the
       convertible  notes  were  converted   into 851,167  shares
       of Halter's common stock.   In connection with  the  Maxim
       merger,  $300,000  of  the other  note  was contributed to
       the Company.

       In   conjunction   with  the  Mergers,   pursuant   to   a
       Divestiture   Agreement  dated  March  23,  1994,   Halter
       divested  itself  of  its  wholly-owned  subsidiary,  SWTV
       Production  Services,  Inc.  (SWTV),  to  Halter's  former
       President  in exchange for the 2,126,540 shares of  common
       stock  of  Halter  owned  by  the  former  President.  The
       2,126,540  shares were then canceled on  March  31,  1994.
       SWTV  was  acquired by Halter on April 22, 1993  and  from
       that  time  until divestiture conducted the sole  business
       operations of Halter.

       For  accounting purposes, the Mergers were  accounted  for
       as  a recapitalization of DRHC, with DRHC the acquirer and
       the  surviving  corporation.   The  Company  continued  to
       operate  under  the  Halter name  until  the  shareholders
       meeting in November 1994, when it was changed to DRHC.

   (C) DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

       DRHC  owns  and operates a hotel, gift shop  and  showroom
       and  leases space to a third party for the operation of  a
       gambling casino and leases space to an affiliate  for  the
       operation  of  a bar and restaurant located on  Convention
       Center  Drive  in  Las  Vegas, Nevada  (collectively,  the
       Property).   Additionally, during the quarter ended  March
       31,  1995,  the  Company  completed  construction  on  the
       Debbie  Reynolds  Hollywood Movie and  Memorabilia  Museum
       (Museum),  which opened on April 1, 1995.   The  Company's
       operations  also  include  the  development  and  sale  of
       timesharing  units  in the Debbie Reynolds  Hotel  (Hotel)
       through  DRRI.   The Company obtained a timeshare  license
       which  was  granted  by the Nevada Real  Estate  Board  on
       June 28, 1994.

       On  April  20,  1994, DRHC entered into an agreement  with
       Hollywood  Restaurant,  Inc.  to  terminate  the  existing
       restaurant  lease  and  began  operating  the  restaurant,
       "Celebrity  Cafe".   In August 1994,  the  restaurant  was
       leased  to the affiliate that operates the bar and  liquor
       operations.

    On  March  22,  1994, the Company obtained a  $2,500,000  loan
    from  Bennett  Management & Development Corp.  (Bennett),  the

PART I.   ITEM  2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATIONS



(1)  OVERVIEW

     The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of
     Debbie Reynolds Hotel & Casino, Inc. (the Company), formerly Halter Venture
     Corporation (Halter) and its present wholly-owned subsidiaries, Debbie
     Reynolds Management Company, Inc., formerly Debbie Reynolds Hotel & Casino,
     Inc. (DRHC) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Debbie Reynolds Resorts, Inc.
     (DRRI).  The accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect the
     historical operations of DRHC and DRRI only and do not include the
     financial results of Halter's former wholly owned subsidiary, SWTV
     Production Service, Inc., which comprised substantially all of the
     operating results reported in Halter's 1993 Annual Report on Form 10-KSB.
     The mergers discussed below have been accounted for as a recapitalization
     of the Company with DRHC as the acquiror and survivor.

     Effective February 11, 1994, Halter entered into an agreement of merger and
     plan of reorganization as amended and restated on March 10, 1994 with DRHC
     and others.  Under the agreement HPL Acquisition Corporation, a wholly-
     owned subsidiary of the Company merged with and into DRHC with the
     surviving corporation being DRHC and its subsidiary, DRRI.  Pursuant to the
     merger, Halter acquired all of the outstanding securities of DRHC.  In
     conjunction with the mergers and pursuant to a divestiture agreement,
     Halter divested itself of its wholly-owned subsidiary SWTV Production
     Services, Inc.

     On November 18, 1994, the shareholders of the Company elected at their
     annual shareholders' meeting to change the name of the Company from Halter
     Venture Corporation to Debbie Reynolds Hotel & Casino, Inc.


(2)  LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     In January 1995, World Venture Trust, an unaffiliated company, loaned the
     Company $275,000.  The loan bore interest at 10% and was due on April 26,
     1995.  The loan was secured by the Company's real and personal property,
     including the Debbie Reynolds Hotel & Casino.  The loan was convertible, at
     the option of the holder, after maturity, into 200,000 shares of the
     Company's common stock.  The company paid off this loan in September of
     1995.

     In February 1995, the Company obtained a $525,000 loan from Bennett
     Management & Development (Bennett), the proceeds of which were principally
     used in the construction of the museum, timeshare conversions and for
     general corporate purposes.  The loan bears interest at 13% and is due on
     March 22, 1997.

     In April 1995, the Company obtained a $500,000 loan from TPM

     loan bore interest at 13% and was due June 25, 1995.  This loan was issued
     as an addition to the lenders second mortgage.  The loan was paid off in

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION, CONTINUED


     due August 25, 1999.  This loan is secured by the company's real and
     personal property, including the Debbie Reynolds Hotel & Casino.  Ms.
     Reynolds, a stockholder and chairman of the board of the Company, has
     personally guaranteed the loan.

     The Company is currently in default in the payment of various accounts
     payable aggregating approximately $1,800,000.

     In August 1995, the Company offered all holders of the company's units
     issued pursuant to the company's Private Placement Memorandums dated March
     25, 1994 and November 17, 1994 the opportunity to convert the series of
     Series AA Preferred Stock and Debentures constituting part of the units
     into restricted shares of the company's Common Stock.  Each Series AA
     Preferred Stock and Debenture converted into one share of the company's
     common stock at the reduced conversion prices of $2.00 and $2.25,
     respectively.  The total dollar amount  converted from the Series AA
     Preferred and Debentures was $2,822,510 which converted into 1,328,240
     shares of the company's common stock.  As additional consideration, the
     company also offered the unit holders the right to exercise each Class A
     Warrant to purchase two shares of Common Stock (instead of one) at an
     exercise price of $1.00 (instead of $5.50) for 60 days from the date of the
     offer.  Pursuant to the Warrant offer, the company received $81,120 from
     the exercise of warrants to purchase  81,120 shares of Common Stock.

     The Company is in the process of obtaining additional financing for the
     company's capital improvements and to repay existing debt, through a
     Regulation S offering under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act").  As of
     November 17, 1995, the Company has sold 300,000 shares of the company's
     common stock totalling net proceeds of approximately $205,000.  This
     offering of shares is directed soley to persons who are not residents of
     the United States.  The company is offering a maximum of 2,666,666 shares
     at $.75 per share.  The shares will not be registered under the Act and may
     not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an
     applicable exemption from registration.  In addition, the shares are
     subject to a minimum six month restriction on transfer.

     The Company had a working capital deficiency of $2,584,000 at September 30,
     1995, compared with a working capital deficiency of $1,074,000 at December
     31, 1994, an increase of $1,309,000.  This increase is attributable to
     operating expenses incurred during the first nine months of 1995.

     With the Company's recurring losses from operations, working capital
     deficit, and debt service obligations, its ability to continue as a going
     concern is dependent on its ability to obtain additional financing.

     Management of the Company is seeking additional sources of financing to
     reduce its debt service obligations, complete certain capital projects and
     fund its working capital needs for the 1995 fiscal year.  In addition,
     management is implementing cost control measures to improve the cash flow
     of the Company.  However, there can be no assurance that these additional
     sources of funding will continue to occur.


(3)  REVENUES

     Revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 1995 totaled $2,177,000 as
     compared to $2,759,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 1994,
     representing a 21% decrease for 1995.  This decrease is

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION, CONTINUED


     attributable, in large part, to the decrease of  $649,000 in timeshare
     sales for the quarter ended September 30, 1995.

     The loss from operations for the third quarter 1995 totaled $1,171,000 as
     compared to the $996,000 loss for the third quarter 1994.  Included in the
     1995 third quarter loss from operations is $468,000, which represents a bad
     debt allowance for the outstanding receivable due from Celebrity
     Restaurants, a company wholly-owned by Ms. Reynolds.  The Company is
     currently in the process of terminating the oral lease agreement with
     Celebrity Restaurants and intends to acquire Celebrity Restaurants during
     the fourth quarter of 1995.

     The profits from timeshare sales during the third quarter of 1995 decreased
     by 45.9% as compared to the third quarter of 1994, due to fewer closings.
     Additionally, the Company incurred considerable showroom operating expenses
     which resulted in the showroom generating a loss of $118,000 for the
     quarter ended September 30, 1995. The net loss for the quarter ended
     September 30, 1995 totaled $1,460,000 as compared to $1,196,000 for the
     quarter ended September 30, 1994.

     Revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 1995 totaled $7,418,000 as
     compared to $5,452,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1994,
     representing a 36.1% increase for 1995.  This increase is attributable, in
     large part, to the addition of $1,745,000 in timeshare sales for the nine
     months ended September 30, 1995.

     The loss from operations for the nine months ended 1995 totaled $2,684,000
     as compared to $3,608,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 1994.
     The Company incurred considerable showroom operating expenses which
     resulted in the showroom generating a loss of $442,000 for the nine months
     ended September 30, 1995.  The net loss for the nine months ended September
     30, 1995 totaled $3,775,000 as compared to $3,995,000 for the nine months
     ended September 30, 1994.


(4)  INTEREST EXPENSE

     Interest expense increased from $394,000 for the nine months ended
     September 30, 1994 to $1,091,000 for nine months ended September 30, 1995
     as a result of the increase in borrowings.

          On January 26, 1995, American Interval Marketing, Inc., filed a

          District Court of Clark County, Nevada, against the Company, alleging

          plaintiff seeks damages in excess of $10,000.

          On July 27, 1995, Norman Eugene Watson, filed a lawsuit against the
          Company and others in the District Court of Clark County, Nevada,

          excess of $10,000.

          Except as otherwise set forth above, the Company is unable to predict,
          at this time, the likelihood of the Company prevailing in the above
          lawsuits.
