Comments: A scientist is studying the effects of fear so that he can help remove it from the modern psyche, since he deems it useless. He disguises his study by paying recruits to stay in Haunted Hill to cope with their insomnia. Three patients are selected and are locked in with the doctor and his assistants. When the house seems to wake up and taunt them, especially one patient named Elenore; they become frightened.

This supernatural horror is very well done. The effects and acting are seamless. The story is quite unusual and engaging. The house itself is an awesome character. The exterior shots are of Harlaxton Manor in Lincolnshire, England. Some of the interior scenes were filmed in a nearby country house; however, the majority of the interior sets were created in the very large hangar near the Queen Mary in Long Beach. This film is a remake of the 1962 version, which is based on a novel. Recommended!
