"The Haunting" 60th Anniversary Free Film Screening
Details
Watch The Haunting (1963) d. Robert Wise (112 min), introduced by Aaron Christensen (HORROR 101 with Dr. AC), with Q&A to follow.
A team of spiritual researchers investigate a large eerie mansion with a dark family history. Expertly adapted from Shirley Jackson’s chilling novel, The Haunting of Hill House, this superior haunted-house yarn generates a true sense of horror without a single drop of blood or rotting corpse. Instead, the bizarre, unsettling camera angles and miraculous sound design lift Jackson’s oppressive narrative gloom off the page, while the skilled ensemble delivers grounded, emotional performances. One of the absolute best of its kind, and the inspiration for Netflix’s 2018 hit miniseries.
