HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL

William Castle, USA, 1959, Film Masters, Horror

One of scaremeister William Castle’s greatest achievements and one of the most enduring B-movie thrillers ever made. The original HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL has all the spookies, shocking sequences and sardonic humor that audiences expect out of an experience like this. A millionaire offers ten thousand dollars to five people if they agree to stay overnight in a large, creepy rented house. When you consider that the millionaire is Vincent Price(!) you can bet the five guests are in for a long, bumpy night. Upon its Fifties release, Castle cooked up the enduring gimmick of “Emergo”, involving a prop illuminated skeleton on a wire that entered the audience from the side of the screen to add to viewers’ fright!
