A gothic haunted-house thriller that uses psychological manipulation and supernatural dread to explore trauma and the malevolent agency of a cursed mansion.
Dr. David Marrow invites three distinct individuals to the eerie and isolated Hill House to be subjects for a sleep disorder study. The unfortunate guests discover that Marrow is far more interested in the sinister mansion itself — and they soon see the true nature of its horror.
