So after seeing this movie come up in a few threads but not having its own, I was curious what people would think of this movie and gauge my tastes in horror with others to see if people share the same viewpoint.

It’s free to watch on YouTube. I classify this as the scariest movie I have ever seen.

It's a very good horror movie. I'm surprised it hasn't made its way to Shudder, Netflix, Vudu, etc. Didn't know it was up on Youtube will have to give it another watch! If you like classic horror (that doesn't slap you in the face with the answer or is loaded with jump-scares) you will dig this.

I remember one of our older Horror movie threads mentioning this movie, and being grateful you guys did, it was a solid flick. Old school haunted house good stuff.

A bit of Serendipity, this is now on Shudder. Signed up a bit back and really digging their selection...reasonably broad with some obscure offerings mostly specializing in horror/suspense. For like $5 a month it ain't so bad.
