Four people stay at a haunted house that has killed previous occupants
This British horror film is based on the 1971 American novel Hell House by Richard Matheson. It was typical of the genre at the time but was more effective than others, and includes a good shot near the start of Roddy McDowell on Roydon station, Essex, with departing Class 305 EMU’s in closeup. Roydon is on the Lea Valley Line between Broxbourne and Harlow Town.
