with introduction by film historian Philip Harwood
Hill House has a reputation for evil. The mysterious New England mansion has reportedly been the scene of a series of grisly murders. The first screen adaptation of Shirley Jackson’s The Haunting of Hill House sees four people, anthropologist Dr. John Markway (Richard Johnson); heir to the mansion Luke Sanderson (Russ Tamblyn); psychic Theo (Claire Bloom); and Eleanor Vance (Julie Harris), who has a tenuous hold on sanity, slowly come to realize that the stories are all true when they become trapped inside the haunted manor. (USA, UK, 1963, 112 mins, English | Dir. Robert Wise)
