The resulting film is a terrific example of adaptation done well, condensing scenes and timelines, but nevertheless keeping the spine of the story as well as recreating several memorable moments from the book.

Can the mysteries of the house be solved, or will they slaughter another group of investigators? John Hough directs The Legend of Hell House (1973), a chilling haunted house picture from novelist/screenwriter Richard Matheson.

Hell House was the home to one Emeric Belasco (played by an uncredited Michael Gough), who hosted debaucheries galore until the horrific events of the 1920s left his houseguests dead. Ben Fischer (Roddy McDowell), the only survivor of a previous, doomed effort, brings fear, snark, and a physical medium’s skill to the house.
